Effectiveness and safety of biosimilars in pediatric inflammatory bowel diseases: an observational longitudinal study on the French National Health Data System.
World J Pediatr

EPI-PHARE, French National Agency for Medicines and Health Products Safety (ANSM) and French National Health Insurance (CNAM), 143-147 Boulevard Anatole France, 93285, Saint-Denis, France.
Background: Data on biosimilar use in pediatric inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are scarce compared to the status of studies in adults, resulting in limitations in its treatment. We compared effectiveness and safety of biosimilars versus originators in this population.
Methods: We used data from the French National Health Data System to identify children (less than 18 years old at treatment initiation) initiating treatment with a biosimilar or the originator infliximab or adalimumab for Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC), from first biosimilar launch (January 2015 and October 2018, respectively) to 31 December 2022.
Strategy to mitigate aggregation during Protein A chromatography and low pH virus inactivation for a nivolumab biosimilar candidate.

Protein A chromatography represents the most prevalent methodology for the capture of monoclonal antibodies. The use of a low pH elution buffer from Protein A has been observed to contribute to product aggregation, particularly in the case of IgG4 antibodies, such as nivolumab. This paper presents a well-defined strategy for addressing this issue.

Department of Neurology, Center of Clinical Neuroscience, University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus, Technische Universität Dresden, Fetscherstr. 74, 01307, Dresden, Germany.
Background: Natalizumab (NAT) is an established disease-modifying therapy (DMT) for highly active multiple sclerosis (MS). However, its use involves complex decision-making, often leading to initial use of lower efficacy therapies. Recently, the first biosimilar NAT was approved, enabling competitive pricing.

BMJ Open
January 2025
Oriola Finland Oy, Espoo, Uusimaa, Finland
Background: The use of new biological medicines as standard treatment is expected to increase substantially and cover new therapeutic indications in the near future. Interchange of biological medicines in pharmacies increases the need for patient guidance.
Objectives: The study aims to gain a patient perspective on biological medicine users' needs and wishes regarding patient guidance by exploring what kind of information patients wish to receive and to further investigate the potential differences in needs between originator biological medicine users and biosimilar users.
A Tertiary Centre's Experience With Using Ranibizumab Biosimilar Compared to Aflibercept for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration: A Retrospective Study.

Ophthalmology, University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, GBR.
Objective This study aims to evaluate the real-world efficacy of ranibizumab biosimilar (Ongavia), compared to aflibercept (Eylea), in the treatment of treatment-naïve neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) at a busy tertiary eye care centre. Methods A retrospective analysis of medical records from August 2022 to August 2024 was conducted, comparing treatment outcomes in treatment-naive nAMD patients who received either Ongavia or Eylea intravitreal anti-VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) injections under a treat-and-extend protocol. Initial and 12-month outcome measures post-treatment initiation were collected, including best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central retinal thickness (CRT), prescribed treatment intervals, actual injection frequency, and the average total number of injections per eye over 12 months.
