The FDA announced today that it has approved Sandoz’s biosimilar Hyrimoz (adalimumab-adaz). The FDA had previously approved adalimumab biosimilars from Amgen and Boehringer Ingelheim.
Sandoz’s global settlement with AbbVie regarding Hyrimoz provides Sandoz with a U.S. entry date of September 30, 2023, whereas Amgen is permitted an earlier U.S. launch, on January 31, 2023. AbbVie’s litigation regarding Boehringer Ingelheim’s adalimumab biosimilar is ongoing.
