Activity Outline

Description: This series of educational webinars is designed to aid physicians, physician assistants, nurses, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, certified public health professionals, other health care professionals, and students, to provide better patient care by knowing how to find relevant FDA regulatory information that will improve drug safety. This webinar will provide an intermediate overview of the scientific and regulatory basis for the biosimilar and interchangeable biosimilar approval pathway. The webinar will build on past biosimilar webinars and further explores the science of biological molecules, including size, complexity, and inherent variation. In addition, we will discuss the use of these products, including labeling, terminology, and pharmacy substitution. To enhance understanding, we will review case studies to highlight the data that can support biosimilarity and interchangeability. This webinar will also demonstrate the functionality of resources available to health care professionals such as the Purple Book Database.
