Amgen Insists US Biosimilars Market Is Working Well
Executive Summary
Amgen insists that the initial response to the trastuzumab and bevacizumab biosimilars it has launched in the US, as well as the pressure it is feeling from competition to its Neulasta pegfilgrastim original, show that the US biosimilars market is functioning well. Therefore, the firm feels, structural interventions are unnecessary.
