•Verification that the       •Verification of the similarity
generic is chemically        of biosimilars to innovator
identical and bioequivalent  medicines remains a key
to the innovator drug        challenge.
                             •Registration of biosimilars
                             requires more stringent
                             evaluations due to potential
                             immunogenicity that may
                             have serious clinical
                             consequences, as well as
                             general safety.
