Journal, Adverse events: Safety of marketed biosimilar monoclonal antibody cancer treatments in the US: a disproportionality analysis using the food and drug administration adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database. (Pubmed Central) - Jan 3, 2025 Significant AE reporting signals were identified: 1) death for biological rituximab, pruritus for biosimilar rituximab-pvvr, and infusion related reaction for biological rituximab and biosimilar rituximab-pvvr (significantly higher ROR for rituximab-pvvr than biological rituximab, p?<?.0001); 2) death for biological bevacizumab and biosimilar bevacizumab-bvzr (significantly higher ROR for bevacizumab-bvzr than biological bevacizumab, p?<?.0001), hypertension, platelet count decreased (PCD), and proteinuria for biological bevacizumab and biosimilar bevacizumab-awwb (significantly higher ROR of PCD for bevacizumab-awwb than originator bevacizumab, p?=?.001); and 3) rash for biosimilar trastuzumab-anns. Findings call for large, longitudinal studies to examine causality of certain AEs with rituximab-pvvr and bevacizumab biosimilars.

Cost-Efficiency Modeling of Conversion to Biosimilar Bevacizumab-bvzr in Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in Medicare (Exhibit Hall) - Jul 24, 2024 - Abstract #IASLCWCLC2024IASLC_WCLC_1453; Conclusions : In the first cost-efficiency and expanded access study of biosimilar bevacizumab in mNSCLC, we find that bevacizumab-bvzr + paclitaxel + carboplatin can result in substantial cost savings relative to originator-based first line treatment of patients with non-squamous mNSCLC in Medicare. These cost savings could be reinvested to treat a substantial number of additional patients with mNSCLC, or fund other costs of care in Medicare, on a budget-neutral basis.

Journal: Short-term study on in-use stability of opened bevacizumab biosimilar PF-06439535 vials. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 23, 2022 As there are limited data available on bevacizumab biosimilar use in real world settings, future research should be conducted to see if utilization for biosimilar products continues to rise as well as safety over time. Consequently, residual PF-06439535 solution (25 mg/mL) in opened vials may be regarded as stable when stored light-protected over a period of 8 days in the refrigerator (2-8°C) or at 25°C.

Retrospective data, Journal, Real-world evidence: Real-world usage of bevacizumab-bvzr biosimilar in US oncology practice. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 21, 2022 Utilization was observed in extrapolated indications. Findings suggest that both switching between reference product and bevacizumab biosimilars and using bevacizumab-bvzr as part of chemotherapy combination regimens have been adopted in US oncology practice.

Real-World Utilization Patterns of Oncology Biosimilar Monoclonal Antibodies and Their Corresponding Reference Products (In-person & Virtual) - Mar 8, 2022 - Abstract #ISPOR2022ISPOR_1644; The objective of this study was to describe real-world treatment pattens of rituximab-pvvr, trastuzumab-qyyp, and bevacizumab-bvzr and their associated reference biologics...Both originator and biosimilar products were used along with specific drug regimens for NHL (CHOP, CVP, DHAP), BC (docetaxel+carboplatin+pertuzumab, docetaxel+carboplatin, pertuzumab+paclitaxel/docetaxel), and CRC (FOLFOX, CAPOX, FOLFIRI, FOLFOXIRI). Biosimilar-mAb products are being utilized in a manner similar to their reference biologic-mAbs in real-world clinical settings.

Journal: Bevacizumab biosimilars: scientific justification for extrapolation of indications. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 3, 2019 Extrapolation of indications for a biosimilar to other eligible indications held by the originator, in the absence of direct clinical comparison, frequently forms part of the regulatory judgment. Herein, we consider the evidence required to demonstrate biosimilarity for bevacizumab biosimilars, with particular focus on the rationale for extrapolation across oncologic indications.
