- W2623157416 abstract "Objectives The American Pharmacists Association (APhA) convened the Biologics and Biosimilars Stakeholder Conference on November 30, 2016, in Washington DC. The objectives of the Conference were to determine the key issues and challenges within the marketplace for biologics, follow-on biologics (FOBs), and biosimilars, identify potential roles and responsibilities of pharmacists regarding biologic and biosimilar medications, and identify actions or activities that pharmacists may take to optimize the safe and cost-effective use of biologics and biosimilars. Data sources National thought leaders and stakeholder representatives, including individuals from the Food and Drug Administration, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, a private third-party payer, manufacturers, and several national organizations of health care professionals, participated in the conference. Information shared by this group was supplemented with relevant legal and regulatory information and published literature. Summary Biologics play a valuable role in the treatment of numerous health conditions, but their associated costs, which tend to be greater than those of small-molecule drugs, place a burden on the health care system. Biosimilars (both noninterchangeable and interchangeable) are highly similar copies of the originator biologic and offer the potential to reduce costs and improve patient access to biological products by increasing treatment options and creating a more competitive market. Despite the potential benefits of biosimilars, certain factors may limit their uptake. The conference participants explored issues that different stakeholders think influence the use of biologics, including biosimilars, in the United States. Barriers included technology, prescriber–pharmacist communication, legislation and regulations, limited patient and health care practitioner knowledge of biological products, patient and health care practitioner perceptions of biosimilars, and evolving science or lack of long-term data. After participants identified issues, they discussed strategies to address these concerns, including the need to enhance the education of pharmacists, prescribers, and patients regarding biologic products, including biosimilars and FOBs; the passage of state laws and regulations that do not impede the use of biosimilars, including interchangeable biosimilars; the use of product-specific tracking information in electronic health records and surveillance systems; bidirectional communication among pharmacists, prescribers, and other members of the care team to support pharmacovigilance and the maintenance of accurate patient records; and the development of evidence-based third-party payer policies. Conclusion Patient access to safe and cost-effective treatments is an important goal for the health care system. As the availability and use of biosimilars, including those determined to be interchangeable, increases, their potential to lower costs and improve patient access to treatment grows. However, the extent of such growth is, in part, dependent on various stakeholders’ decisions to provide, pay for, or use these products in a safe and thoughtful manner. Ongoing stakeholder collaboration, educational activities, and review of current government or payer policies are required to optimize the uptake of biological products, including biosimilars." @default.
