Several factors influence this substitution, including regulatory policies, safety and efficacy considerations, patient and physician preferences, and market dynamics. This review comprehensively analyzes how these factors interact and influence generic drug substitution in healthcare settings and across various therapeutic classes and highlight the importance of balancing cost-saving measures with maintaining patient safety and therapeutic efficacy. Policies and guidelines established by health authorities in each country influence the approval, interchangeability, and substitution of generic drugs. Bioequivalence and therapeutic equivalence are critical factors, particularly in drugs with narrow therapeutic indexes. Moreover, physicians’ acceptance and willingness to prescribe generic drugs, as well as patient acceptance and compliance with generic drug use, play a vital role in promoting generic substitution.","PeriodicalId":91117,"journal":{"name":"Journal of generic medicines","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135350581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite having the most cutting-edge scientific knowledge, America and the majority of Europe ironically have the maximum cancer rates. It shows that using technology and science alone to treat cancer and other diseases is inadequate. Additionally, it is now widely acknowledged that majority of pre-clinical tumour models are insufficient, because more than 95% of substances and molecules that kill cancerous cells in culture or reduce tumours in animals may fail in clinical studies in people. Additionally, the majority of anti-cancer medications which are authorised by regulatory bodies like the FDA have either no impact on survival of cancer patients or may raise by a few months. This is amidst the fact that majority of presently offered chemotherapeutic drugs are very expensive, leading to a lack of affordability.","PeriodicalId":91117,"journal":{"name":"Journal of generic medicines","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136024671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, the agencies are striving to form perspicuous regulatory frameworks for approval of biosimilar. According to this viewpoint, the approval of complex generics, also known as non-biological complex pharmaceuticals, is not subject to any clearly defined regulations (NBCDs). Although they differ from biologic products, complex medicines are constructed of huge, extremely complex, and synthetic components. The regulatory frameworks that are currently being used for complicated generics are opaque and uncertain. The market for complex generics is huge and there are fewer generic competitors in this area. In addition, the cost of bringing such generics into the market is high. Thus, there is a need for a well-defined pathway and guidance documents for the authorization of generic versions of complex drug products. The paper focus on the regulatory frameworks that the USA, EU, and Latin America have developed at this time to allow for the introduction of complicated generics to the market. In order to analyse regulatory policies in the USA, Europe, and Latin America for the marketing of NBCD copies, a case study of a product with an approved generic version is used. It also describes on the regulatory disparities existing among the three agencies in the light of complex generics.","PeriodicalId":91117,"journal":{"name":"Journal of generic medicines","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135347522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
