“The Global Biosimilars Market is estimated to reach US$240 billion by 2030, with the Indian market at US$35 billion. The considerable increase in reference products, with the USFDA adding 90 molecules and India approving 70 biosimilars, promises to usher in further growth.
The Biopharma industry seems keen on investing in the biosimilar market with a focus on improving healthcare and health care costs for diseases of interest like COVID-19, cancer, immunologic diseases, and diabetes.
This is evident in the projected growth of the oncology biosimilar market at 17 per cent CAGR, and the growing demand and importance of monoclonal antibodies such as tocilizumab, sarilumab, and itolizumab for testing on COVID-19 patients.”

In our experience, some 70%+ of small to medium companies are still following a manual process to process and add documents to the Document Management System (DMS) and, subsequently to the Publishing tool. This is not only time consuming, but it also expends additional efforts both pre and post publishing.”
