Top 3 Challenges
Interchangeability1
Extrapolation of indications2
International non-proprietary name or INN3
Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária - Anvisa
Interchangeability
EMA FDA Health Canada Anvisa
Individual countries in EU have adopted
varying policies
US law permits FDA to designate a product as interchangeable. However, decisions about substitution by the pharmacy are governed by the state laws
Health Canada doesn´t declare interchangeabilityfor biosimilars
Interchangeabilityis underdiscussion. Bynow, Anvisa willdeclare interchangeabilityafter reviewclinical data withthis purpose
Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária - Anvisa
Interchangeability
1. A medical practice of change one medicine for another that is expected to achieve the same clinical effect;
2. It´s not a requirement to license a biosimilar;
3. It´s necessary to conduct clinical trials;
4. Develop international Guidelines (WHO)
Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária - Anvisa
Extrapolation of indications
1. Reflection paper on extrapolation of indication
- Working group to discuss the theme and propose areflection paper
- Strong scientific justification for extrapolation ofindication by companies should be emphasized inthe paper
