 | Analytical Similarity Assessment in Biosimilar Product Development Subjects: Bioscience; Medicine Dentistry Nursing & Allied Health; Pharmaceutical Science; Medicine; Clinical Trials - Pharmaceutical Science; Drug Design & Development; Pharmaceutical Medicine; Medical Statistics & Computing; This book focuses on analytical similarity assessment in biosimilar product development following the FDA's recommended stepwise approach for obtaining totality-of-the-evidence for approval of biosimilar products. It covers concepts such as the tiered approach for assessment of similarity of critical quality attributes in the manufacturing process of biosimilar products, models/methods like the statistical model for classification of critical quality attributes, equivalence tests for critical quality attributes in Tier 1 and the corresponding sample size requirements, current issues, and recent developments in analytical similarity assessment.
