Human growth hormone is a protein hormone produced by the pituitary gland that stimulates growth, cell reproduction, and regeneration in humans. It plays a crucial role in childhood growth and continues to regulate body composition, muscle and bone growth, and metabolism in adults.

The European Medicines Agency provides a centralized and structured regulatory framework that supports the approval and monitoring of hGH therapies. The region is known for its predictable and science-based regulatory environment, which encourages pharmaceutical companies to invest in hGH development. The EMA further promotes the safe adoption of biosimilars, increasing treatment accessibility. Additionally, EU initiatives supporting rare disease therapies and orphan drugs create favorable conditions for launching new hGH treatments. This supportive regulatory landscape helps accelerate the introduction of new products and ensures high treatment standards across Europe.

The increasing availability and acceptance of biosimilar human growth hormone products are accelerating market expansion in Europe. The European Medicines Agency was among the first regulators globally to approve biosimilars, creating a favorable environment for their adoption. Countries across Europe are promoting the use of biosimilars to reduce healthcare spending while maintaining treatment quality. Biosimilar help make hGH therapy affordable for a larger population as they become more accessible. This increased affordability and physician confidence in biosimilars are fueling the penetration and driving competition among manufacturers.
