Abstract: Over the past two decades, biologics have had a huge impact on the treatment of cancer in multiple tumor types, and in many cases these agents have improved outcomes and survival. In oncology, a growing number of biosimilars have been approved and are in clinical use in Europe, and it is anticipated that many oncology biosimilars will be approved by the US Food and Drug Administration within the next 18 to 24 months.
