Number 4: A phase 3 study of a trastuzumab biosimilar candidate and the reference product (Herceptin) has demonstrated equivalence in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive early stage breast cancer, according to findings presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2021.

Number 3: Alvotech gained an EU marketing recommendation for AVT02, a proposed adalimumab biosimilar; New Zealand may give preferential status to Amgen's adalimumab biosimilar; and BioFactura looks to deliver ustekinumab via a robotic pill.

Number 2: Alvotech said the FDA review of its high concentration, citrate-free adalimumab biosimilar candidate (AVT02) is held up by pandemic-related curbs on overseas inspections.

Number 1: The FDA has approved the first ranibizumab biosimilar (Byooviz, SB11) for multiple ophthalmologic conditions, although market launch is at least 9 months away, owing to patent protections on the originator product.
