XBiotech Expands Portfolio to Include Biosimilars
Date:2/26/2013

f branded biologics, such as Amgen, and diverse entrants, such as Samsung, into the biosimilar development. However, with the large number of developers there remains considerable uncertainty about how market share is going to be divided, once a number of competing products hit the market.

Simard added that "In the biosimilar space cost competitiveness is going to be crucial to the success of these products. Market share is going to be driven by the ability to provide these products to the end user at lower costs than the competitor's. Developers capable of dramatically reducing cost of goods and establishing innovative distribution strategies will ultimately be able to dominate the biosimilar market. We believe XBiotech is well positioned to take advantage of this opportunity."
