Visiongain’s analysis indicates that, in 2011, the top ten biosimilar drug manufacturers accounted for 54.8% of that market. Global generics manufacturers occupied three of the top four places in the ranking. Leading manufacturers based in India, China and South Korea were also among the top ten biosimilar manufacturers. All companies among the top 25 will experience revenue growth in the coming 10 years, although most will have market share fall.
Richard Lang, a pharmaceutical industry analyst for visiongain, said: “Many of the top 25 biosimilar manufacturers have an established base in the market, having marketed products for the past five to ten years. However, many will see their position challenged in the coming decade. Rapid growth forecast for the biosimilars market has made it an attractive prospect and many new companies are looking to enter.
“To retain market share, current leaders will launch new biosimilars in the next few years, focusing particularly on monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Licensing deals will extend the pipelines of established players and new market entrants. Eight of Hospira’s eleven pipeline biosimilars are from its licensing agreement with Celltrion, for example. More deals are expected in this sector in the near future as companies look for a foothold in this fast-growing market.”
Visiongain’s study forecasts biosimilar revenues to 2022 for eight of the leading companies. Two established market players will achieve biosimilar revenue over $2bn by 2022. Dr. Reddy’s will experience the fastest revenue growth in the period, with a CAGR of over 30%. The launch of seven new biosimilars between 2012 and 2018 will stimulate this growth.
