Biosimilar Development.
Comprehensive Comparability Analysis of Biosimilars to Reference Biologicals.
Development of a biosimilar follows stringent standards to engineer a molecule that should be indistinguishable from the reference biologic. Rather than determining and establishing the product’s clinical efficacy, the regulatory requirement for biosimilars is to demonstrate that it is highly similar to the reference biologic in terms of quality characteristics, biological activity, safety and efficacy.
Next generation protein sequencing (NGPS) and proteomics can initiate and facilitate the comprehensive comparability analyses – a requirement from regulatory bodies (FDA BCPI Act; EMA Directive 2001/83/EC) – between biosimilars and their respective reference biologics. Determining the protein sequence of the reference biologic permits comparative characterization of the structure and performance of the biosimilar, while proteomics techniques can provide insight into the physicochemical and biological properties of the biosimilar.

“We’re focused on coupling cytokines with a highly engineered VHVL of an antibody. So by sequencing the antibodies with Rapid Novor we are able to pull out the CDR to graft them into our platform and test in vitro and in vivo.”
