Comparative physicochemical and structural characterisation studies establish high biosimilarity between BGL-ASP and reference insulin aspart.

Biosimilar insulin analogues are increasing market access for diabetic patients globally. Scientific establishment of biosimilarity is cornerstone of this key change in the medical landscape. BGL-ASP is a biosimilar insulin aspart developed by BioGenomics Limited, India.

In Vitro Biological Characterization of Recombinant Insulin Aspart from Biogenomics and Originator Insulin Aspart.

Background: Bioassays are used to identify the pharmacological activity of new or chemically unknown compounds, as well as their undesirable effect, including toxicity. Biological assays are also required to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of recombinant biologics to confirm its biosimilarity to its originator. In the present study, analytical similarity between the biosimilar and its innovator is established by in vitro bioassays.
