Biosimilar Market in Europe 2018: Industry Trends, Growth, Demand, Share, Opportunities and Forecast till 2023

Biosimilar Market in Europe Driven by Ongoing Awareness Initiatives

IMARC Group’s latest report, entitled “Biosimilar Market in Europe: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2018-2023”, finds that the biosimilar market in Europe reached a value of US$ 2,013 Million in 2017. Biosimilars refer to biological drugs which are highly similar to already approved branded drugs in terms of safety, efficacy, structure, immunogenicity profile, etc. In Europe, biosimilars are manufactured, developed and approved according to the stringent laws laid down by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). A significant rise in the ageing population has led to the prevalence of various chronic diseases in the region. For instance, according to a report by WHO, cancer has emerged as the second major cause of death and morbidity in Europe with more than 3.7 million new cases and 1.9 million deaths each year. As a result of this, cancer supportive biosimilars, such as Filgrastim and Erythropoietin, are widely being recommended by doctors in the region. Moreover, the biosimilar manufacturers in the region are continuously developing new products which are projected to help in increasing the availability of biological treatments for the patients.

European Biosimilar Market Trends:

The growing awareness among the patients in Europe regarding the efficacy and safety of biosimilars as compared to patented drugs has created a positive outlook for the market growth. Apart from this, as patients have limited access to biologics owing to their relatively high cost, there has been a huge demand for the lower priced biosimilars. This has further helped in lowering the cost of treatment of chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, CVDs, autoimmune diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, kidney failure, growth hormone deficiency, infectious diseases, etc. Moreover, the EMA and the European Commission are working towards improving the understanding of biosimilar use across the European Union (EU). In line with this, they have published information material on biosimilar medicines which offers healthcare professionals with comprehensive information about their regulations and usage. As a result of these factors, the market is projected to exceed a value of US$ 9,173 Million by 2023, exhibiting at a CAGR of 29% during 2017-2023.
