What to look forward to in GaBI Journal, 2014, Issue 2
Journal Title: Generics and Biosimilars Initiative Journal - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
As mentioned previously, non-biological complex drugs (NBCDs) continue to raise important regulatory and practice issues. This issue of the GaBI Journal contains a number of manuscripts dealing with these products and begins with an update on NCBDs (nanosimilars) developments by Professor Gerrit Borchard. This is followed by a manuscript discussing the use of size and heterogeneity to characterize liposomal doxorubicin generics (nanosimilars) by Professor S Moein Moghimi and Dr Z Shadi Farhangrazi who raise a number of important issues including how comparisons can be made when innovator products are no longer manufactured or available.
