The global biosimilars market is valued at USD 24.2 billion in 2024, growing at a CAGR of 16.5% during the forecast period, till 2035.
In recent years, the biologics market has experienced significant growth, owing to its improved effectiveness in managing chronic diseases. However, the high costs associated with biologics pose considerable economic and healthcare challenges. As the demand for biologics continues to increase, developers are exploring innovative strategies to enhance returns on investment while addressing the need for more affordable alternative biological products that encompass similar safety and efficacy profiles. Amidst patent expirations, shrinking drug pipelines, and pressure to reduce the treatment costs, biosimilars are expected to occupy a significant share within the biopharmaceutical industry. This trend is further supported by surge in investments and collaborations among biosimilar developers in the past few years. Further, regulatory advancements, such as streamlining approval processes and establishing clearer guidelines for biosimilar development have facilitated the development of biosimilars. Moreover, studies on interchangeability, which assess the feasibility of substituting biosimilars with reference biologics with similar safety or efficacy, have also played a critical role in advancing biosimilar development. In addition, the rising demand for biosimilars as a cost-effective alternative has promoted the need for increased in-house development and outsourcing operations, thereby creating significant growth opportunities for biosimilar developers.
