2. 8th Biosimilars Congregation 2016
08th & 09th March 2016, The Kensington Close Hotel, Wrights Lane, London, UK
Dear Colleagues,
Biosimilars market is going to heat up considerably in the next
three years. Biosimilar versions of a number of major biologic
drugs used in the treatment of cancers and rheumatic diseases
are expected to complete their development and potentially
come on to the market. In order to ensure the sustainability of
public healthcare systems, in the context of ageing populations
and growing incidence of chronic diseases, it will be essential to
harness to potential of biosimilars to deliver savings, so that
greater numbers of patients can be treated with these medicines.
The development of the Biosimilars market is growing
exponentially with the industry forecast to be worth $25 billion
by 2020.
This conference will bring together top pharmaceutical,
biotechnology and regulatory representatives under one roof
that will address the key issues of the industry. Hence, this 4th
Biosimilars Congregation 2014 will look at the multiple facets of
biosimilars, ranging from the evolving regulatory landscape and
challenges in clinical development, to the legal and economic
aspects. This Biosimilars conference will focus on multiple
aspects of biosimilar product development to successfully
deliver safe, biosimilar products to the market place. By
attending this conference you will gain a comprehensive outlook
on the key issues surrounding biosimilars. This event will
provide an important platform for Biosimilars stakeholders to
discuss and share best practices in expediting Biosimilars
development.
It gives me great pleasure in welcoming all of you to the Virtue
Insight’s 8th Biosimilars Congregation 2016.
Regards,
Fen Castro
