Sandoz, Adalvo and Eurofarma were the biggest winners at the Global Generics & Biosimilars Awards 2024, each taking multiple honors, among the many champions named across 14 separate categories at our prizegiving ceremony in Milan.

In the wake of Biocon’s debut positive opinion for an aflibercept rival to Eylea just over a year ago, two further companies – Sandoz and Samsung Bioepis – have now secured coveted endorsements from the European Medicines Agency for their own versions of the ophthalmic biosimilar. Meanwhile, Teva has received a CHMP nod for another Imnovid generic.

Sandoz and partner Liquidia have welcomed a US court decision which found that interference by United Therapeutics with the launch of their generic treprostinil injection rival to Remodulin caused the pair losses of more than $137m.

At the recent Morgan Stanley Healthcare Conference in New York, Sandoz leaders set out their views on the significance of – and the FDA’s initial implementation of – the US biosimilar interchangeability designation.
