Abstract

This brand new report published in November 2004 takes an insightful look at the burgeoning biogenerics industry.

This report primarily focuses on how the generics industry will be shaped by the global healthcare market and regulatory developments over the next five years. The international biogenerics market faces a multitude of challenges. Biogenerics: Challenges and Promise will assess those challenges and analyze the potential for maximizing the myriad opportunities available in this competitive and dynamic industry. The report also appraises and compares current and emerging biogeneric products and identifies those with the most potential for growth.

Key questions answered in this report:
  • Who are the major players in the biogenerics arena and what kind of impact are they making on the industry?
  • What obstacles stand in the way of a smooth transition from biopharmaceutical manufacture to biogenerics?
  • How has the lack of a clear framework impeded the industry’s progress in producing and distributing biogeneric drugs? And how will these issues be resolved?
  • What specific hurdles must biogeneric manufacturers maneuver in order to get their products on the market?
This new Arrowhead report contains:
  • Thorough analysis of the drivers of and restraints on the biogenerics market
  • Detailed information and analysis concerning groundbreaking biogeneric regulation in the US and Europe.
  • Identification of key biopharmaceuticals at risk for biogeneric competition
