hmmmm...I respect what you say Midas but I'm not buying (lol)it..
Remember, both of these drugs are bio-similars. Companies that have the drugs that these are patterned on always run the risk that the bio-similar might have greater efficacy and better tolerance values than their own drug. Add to that the much reduced cost of producing said bio-similar and the producers of the original drug are going to have a big problem if that bio-similar is approved, fast track or otherwise.
Companies that produce the original drug in these cases are always going to have contingency plans in case a promising bio-similar comes out that threatens their market.
What would you do if you were the director of a Big P company with a gold standard drug and got wind of a small company producing a bio-similar that more than likely would produce your drug to yesterdays news?
