The development pathway of a biosimilar is unlike that of a novel biotherapeutic. While there is an increased requirement for analytics throughout a biosimilars development project, and a Phase II clinical trial is generally omitted, careful consideration must be given to the planning of the other phases of development. Many regulatory authorities reference a “step-by-step” approach to establishing biosimilarity. This presentation will provide a look at the multi-stage development for a biosimilar, including a review of the regulatory landscape, structural characterization techniques for biosimilarity assessment, and early phase clinical research challenges
