Report Excerpt
7.3.7 Italy
Branded products dominate the Italian pharmaceutical market. The use of branded biologics is common and, as a result, the biosimilars market is only small, with total sales of $0.01bn in 2010. There is little incentive for doctors to prescribe generics, or for wholesalers to distribute them. However, recent reforms in pharmaceutical pricing are likely to increase the use of generics and, consequently, biosimilars in the market, visiongain predicts. In 2010, as part of healthcare budgetary cuts, the Italian government announced that it would only reimburse the cheapest version of a prescription drug. Additionally, reimbursement of oncology biologics in hospitals will now be based on the individual patient’s response, with treatment being withdrawn from non-responding patients.
