Samsung Bioepis Releases Fourth Quarter 2025 US Biosimilar Market Report Providing Annual Biosimilar Trends and Future Market Trajectory

  • As of September 2025, the number of approved biosimilars in the US reached up to 80 biosimilars across 19 unique biological molecules – of which 58 (73%) biosimilars have launched in the market
  • Market share for the reference ranibizumab has soared to 90% with the pause of a biosimilar product
  • The deep dive section highlights an interview with William Fleming, a former senior Medicare executive, on Maximum Fair Price (MFP) and its potential impact on the biosimilar market in the future

INCHEON, Korea--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Samsung Bioepis Co., Ltd. today released its Fourth Quarter 2025 Biosimilar Market Report, marking the eleventh edition of the Quarterly Biosimilar Market Report in the United States (US). The report overviews the market status of all the biosimilars that are available in the US including approval and launch status, pricing (both Average Sales Price; ASP and Wholesale Acquisition Cost; WAC) after the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) publishes updated quarterly ASP values for each product, and market uptakes per molecule. This issue features an interview with Dr. William Fleming, a former senior Medicare executive, on how payers are preparing for the upcoming implementation of the Maximum Fair Price (MFP) policy. As part of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the CMS has been negotiating prices for some drugs with the highest Medicare expenditures. The newly negotiated prices of the first 10 selected drugs will become effective as of January 1, 2026.

Looking ahead, it is clear that 2026 will bring further shifts, with key developments expected to transform the environment in which we operate.
