The Warped Incentives Behind Amgen’s Humira Biosimilar Pricing–And What We Can Learn from Semglee and Repatha

Drug Channels

As you've surely heard, Amgen has just launched Amjevita, the first non-interchangeable biosimilar of Humira. Our crazy drug channel led Amgen to launch both a high-list/high-rebate and a low-list/low-rebate version of the drug. Its strategy echoes the pricing of the first interchangeable insulin biosimilars— as I predicted in 2021. Unfortunately, we should expect most PBMs and plan sponsors to embrace the high-list/high-rebate version.
