Bipartisan bill to streamline FDA biosimilar approvals and expand access to lower-cost prescription drugs.
Quiver AI Summary
Bill introduced: Reps. Kim Schrier and Nick Langworthy introduced the "Expedited Access to Biosimilars Act," a bipartisan proposal aimed at updating the FDA’s biosimilar approval process and reducing regulatory barriers. Supporters say it could help lower-cost prescription drugs reach patients sooner.
What the measure would do: The bill would clarify that extra clinical studies are not automatically required when existing evidence is sufficient, while keeping FDA authority to request more data when needed. It would also require earlier FDA notice to manufacturers if additional studies will be expected.
Supporters' case: The lawmakers said biosimilars can provide cheaper alternatives to biologic drugs, which are used to treat conditions such as cancer, arthritis, Crohn’s disease, diabetes and autoimmune disorders. The release says the proposal is backed by a coalition of healthcare, patient, insurer and industry groups.
