Rise in GDP and healthcare expenditures, and the demand for cost effective therapeutics solution has resulted in the growth of this market.
Biosimilars are made using living cells that treat disease, by recombinant DNA technology and controlled gene expression. Most biosimilars are derived from bacteria, viruses, plants and animals. Biosimilar drugs are used in prevention and cure of various diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, chronic kidney failure, oncology, diabetes, heart attacks, autoimmune diseases, growth hormone deficiency, and infectious disease. Biosimilars offer a cheaper alternative for other biological and synthetic drugs. Limited healthcare resources across many Latin American countries result in underutilization of important biosimilars for conditions such as cancer and rheumatoid arthritis, largely due to their cost and a lack of proper support from state-run programs. These factors contribute to below optimal adoption of clinical practice recommendations and poor care across the region.
