Samsung Bioepis signed an agreement with Switzerland’s Sandoz for the sales of its Stelara biosimilar drug in the North American and European regions.
Samsung Bioepis’ SB17, a proposed biosimilar to Janssen Pharmaceuticals’ blockbuster psoriasis treatment Stelara, is the Incheon-based biopharmaceutical company’s fourth biosimilar candidate in the immunology pipeline.
In March, the company presented its Phase 1 clinical study results for SB17. Phase 3 was completed in December last year.
Stelara is the brand name for the ustekinumab drug. The global ustekinumab market size reached $17.7 billion in 2022, according to market tracker Iqvia.
