2023 Outlook: Humira Is Not Only Specialty Drug With Anticipated Biosimilars

One of the biggest events in the specialty pharmacy market is happening this year: the availability of biosimilars to AbbVie Inc.’s top-selling Humira (adalimumab). With its Jan. 31 launch, Amgen Inc.’s Amjevita (adalimumab-atto) was the first entrant, and others are expected this summer. But biosimilars of other top biologics also are coming down the pike. AIS Health, a division of MMIT, spoke with a variety of industry experts about what they’re watching in this space in 2023.

AIS Health: What kind of impact will be seen from the Humira biosimilars?

Nicole Kjesbo, Pharm.D., director of clinical program development for Prime Therapeutics LLC: Ideally, we’ll see price competition due to multiple biosimilars of Humira launching in 2023.
