  • OPERS Letter in Support of Celltrion's Biologics License Application for A
    Ohio Public Employees Retirement System February 3, 2016 Stephanie Begansky, PharmD Center for Drug Evaluation and Research Food and Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue, WO31-2417 Silver Spring, MD 20933-0002 To the Food and Drug Administration Arthritis Advisory Committee: The Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (“OPERS”) appreciates the opportunity to submit comments to the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) Arthritis Advisory Committee regarding the approval of Celltrion Inc.’s Biologics License Application (“BLA”) 125544 for CT-P13, an infliximab biosimilar to Janssen Biotech’s REMICADE (“infliximab”). Upon learning that the FDA had accepted Celltrion’s BLA for a biosimilar infliximab, we felt that it was appropriate to offer our support. OPERS has 222,000 non-Medicare and Medicare Retiree Health Care Program participants, and ensuring that costs within the health care system remain affordable and sustainable is of paramount concern to us. The availability and accessibility of safe, effective, and affordable biosimilar medications is an integral part of OPERS’ long-term strategy to manage its future prescription drug costs for our retiree health care plan and plan participants. Celltrion has submitted significant evidence demonstrating that its infliximab is biosimilar to the US-licensed reference product (Janssen Biotech’s REMICADE); including comparative clinical trials: (1) in combination with methotrexate, reducing signs and symptoms, inhibiting the progression of structural damage, and improving physical function
