Make Biologics Universally Accessible

Novel Solutions for
Bringing Biosimilars to Market

Similis delivers validated assets with supporting data and expertise to jump-start your biosimilar development efforts.

legal-Similis
Patent
Discovery

We start every program with detailed patent discovery work, finding all valid and relevant patents in the US and EU. We then work with law firms dedicated to intellectual property law in the pharmaceutical industry to ensure we have a comprehensive understanding of the key patents, anticipated timing of biosimilar competition, and freedom to operate as we begin pre-clinical development.

characterization-Similis
Analytical
Development


We complete every aspect of analytical development for each program, including reference product sourcing and characterization, definition of a Quality Target Product Profile, identification of Critical Quality Attributes, and development of the full complement of analytical methods needed to characterize and control the biosimilar.

cld-Similis
Cell Line
Development


We screen a range of biosimilar cell lines for each program, including the Selexis SURE CHO-M Cell Line™ technology, to best optimize product quality, titer, and cell line stability. All of our cell lines include single cell cloning and production of a research cell bank.

process-Similis
Process
Development


We provide end-to-end biosimilar development processes from early upstream development through completion of a commercially viable manufacturing process in under 10 months – a process that delivers high-quality supplies of drug product for non-clinical and clinical studies. We confirm analytical similarity at every step giving you confidence that the program will be clinically successful.

Similis provides complete solutions for Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls, from target selection, through drug product delivery.

We believe in a world where exceptional biologics are universally accessible, made possible by harnessing transformational technology and latent data.

Maximize Value Through
Flexible Partnership Structures


Similis develops analytical methods, biosimilar cell lines, and process knowhow. Because we independently build these packages and own all assets outright, we are open to a wide range of partnership structures. We provide partnership options ranging from a single analytical method to completed pre-clinical assets off-the-shelf to significantly expedite your biosimilar development.

If we don't have the specific assets you need, we can partner with you to develop a biosimilar of your choice, starting from scratch.

Meet Our Team

Our team has supported over 18 biosimilar programs at all stages of development, helping bring 6 products to market.
