셀트리온 트룩시마·허쥬마 유럽 출시 임박…현지 기대감↑
[더인베스터(코리아헤럴드)=박한나기자] 유럽 출시를 앞둔 셀트리온의 항암제 바이오시밀러 ‘트룩시마’와 ‘허쥬마’에 대한 현지 반응이 뜨거워지고 있다.16일 외신과 업계에 따르면, 유럽 의학계와 제약업계의 관심은 무엇보다 가격이다. 유럽의 경우 바이오시밀러가 기존 오리지널 치료제 대비 약 30% 저렴한 것을 감안하면 트룩시마와 허쥬마 역시 비슷한 수준으로 가격이 책정될 것으로 보인다. 영국 암연구센터(BICR) 최고경영자 폴 워크맨은 로이터에 “유럽의 암전문의들이 약효가 뛰어난 바이오시밀러를 낮은 가격에 구입할 수만 있다면 반응은 폭발적일 것”이라고 말했다. 유럽은 세계에서 가장 큰 바이오시밀러 시장이지만 그 동안은 북유럽과 독일에서 판매가 집중된 것이 사실이다. 지난주 영국종양약료협회는 항체바이오시밀러를 항암치료에 적극적으로 활용하겠다며 처방비율을 전체 국립병원 환자 90%까지 끌어올리겠다고 밝혔다. 트룩시마와 허쥬마의 오리지널 치료제인 로슈사의 리툭산과 허셉틴은 영국내 판매만 연

셀트리온 “피하주사제형 트룩시마 아직 시기상조”
[더인베스터(코리아헤럴드)=박한나 기자] 셀트리온이 혈액암 항암제인 트룩시마의 피하주사(SC) 제형 개발에 대한 업계의 기대감에 아직 “시기상조”라는 입장을 내놨다. 셀트리온 관계자는 18일 더인베스터에 “트룩시마는 아직 유럽의약품청의 허가를 기다리고 있는 상태로 아직 제형 다각화 계획까지는 밝힐 단계가 아니다”고 밝혔다. 트룩시마는 스위스 제약기업 로쉬가 개발한 혈액암치료제 리툭산의 복제약으로 올 1분기 유럽 승인을 기다리고 있고 미국 FDA 승인 신청도 상반기 중으로 진행할 예정이다. 업계에서는 트룩시마의 글로벌경쟁력을 높이는데 필수적인 피하주사제형 개발에 주목하고 있다. 고가의 의약품을 낮은 가격에 이용할 수 있는 바이오시밀러의 장점과 더불어 투여시간이 획기적으로 줄어들어 기존 정맥투여방식보다 환자의 편의성이 크게 향상되기 때문이다. 특히 바이오시밀러의 공세에 몰린 로슈가 지난해 유럽서 피하투여용 리툭산에 대한 승인을 받으면서 셀트리온도 피하주사제형 개발에 서둘러야 한다
