Activity Outline 

Description: This series of educational webinars is designed to aid physicians, physician assistants, nurses, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, students, and other health care professionals, to provide better patient care by knowing how to find relevant FDA regulatory information that will improve drug safety. This webinar will provide an overview of the regulatory framework for biosimilar products, including a background, information on terminology and the general requirements of the approval pathway for biosimilars. The webinar will also talk about the approach and scientific concepts used in the development of biosimilar products.

Series Objectives:

  • Explain how to utilize FDA’s drug information, medication safety resources, and regulatory guidance, to improve delivery of patient care and optimize outcomes.
  • Describe and inform health care providers of recent labeling changes which would impact prescribing and medication management to optimize patient care.
References:
  1. Biosimilars
  2. Scientific Considerations in Demonstrating Biosimilarity to a Reference Product
  3. Quality Considerations in Demonstrating Biosimilarity of a Therapeutic Protein Product to a Reference Product
  4. Clinical Pharmacology Data to Support a Demonstration of Biosimilarity to a Reference Product
  5. Considerations in Demonstrating Interchangeability With a Reference Product Guidance for Industry
  6. Statistical Approaches to Evaluate Analytical Similarity

Session Learning Objectives: After completion of this activity, the participant will be able to:

  1. Define the difference between biosimilar and interchangeable products and how they are prescribed/dispensed.
  2. Explain the goals of a standalone and biosimilar development pathways and the stepwise evidence approach used to generate data in support of a demonstration of biosimilarity.
  3. Recognize the importance of the analytical foundation and how FDA assesses analytical similarity.
  4. Describe the role of clinical studies in the biosimilar development process.

Target Audience: This activity is intended for physicians, physician assistants, nurses, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, students, and other health care professionals.
