London, UK (PRWEB) October 15, 2012
With Herceptin exclusivity expiring in major geographies, a host of experienced as well as new entrant biosimilar players start eying for a lucrative opportunity to grab a share of this potential USD 6 billion pie. Herceptin sales are particularly critical to Roche as it accounts for about 15% of its cumulative pharmaceuticals sales. However, with all these great opportunities surrounding biosimilar players, there exist certain risks and barriers to be aware of.
New research study “Risk – Reward of Developing a Herceptin Biosimilar – A Thorough Assessment” worked out by MP Advisors has been recently published by Market Publishers Ltd.
