⏳ Availability & biosimilar status
Biologics have no small-molecule generics; biosimilar competition is tracked in the FDA Purple Book.
Why the date isn’t exact: Biosimilar timing can change because patents may be challenged, settled, licensed, added or removed, and litigation can move the real date earlier or later.
🛈 What do these terms mean?
- Biologic patent
- A patent the reference product’s maker has publicly listed. A biosimilar generally can’t launch until these expire — unless they’re invalidated or resolved in a settlement.
- Reference-product exclusivity
- A flat 12 years of FDA market protection from the biologic’s first licensure (the BPCIA). No biosimilar can be licensed before it ends, regardless of patents.
- Interchangeable exclusivity
- The first interchangeable biosimilar can earn a period as the only interchangeable version (pharmacists can substitute it without the prescriber).
- Earliest biosimilar (LOE)
- The latest of all the dates above — the soonest a biosimilar can realistically reach the market. Litigation and settlements can move it earlier.
Biologics have no small-molecule “generics” — competition comes from FDA-licensed biosimilars, tracked in the FDA Purple Book.

⚠️ Warnings and Cautions ▾
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Immune-Mediated Adverse Reactions Immune-mediated adverse reactions, which may be severe or fatal, can occur in any organ system or tissue, including the following: immune-mediated pneumonitis, immune-mediated colitis, immune-mediated hepatitis, immune-mediated endocrinopathies, immune-mediated dermatologic adverse reactions, immune-mediated nephritis and renal dysfunction, and solid organ transplant rejection. ( 5.1 ) Monitor for early identification and management. Evaluate liver enzymes, creatinine, and thyroid function at baseline and periodically during treatment.
Withhold or permanently discontinue based on severity and type of reaction. Infusion-Related Reactions : Pause or slow the rate of injection, or permanently discontinue based on severity of the reaction. ( 5.2 ) Complications of Allogeneic HSCT: Fatal and other serious complications can occur in patients who receive allogeneic HSCT before or after being treated with a PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibody.
Follow patients closely for evidence of transplant-related complications and intervene promptly. ( 5.3 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity : Can cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and use of effective contraception.
( 5.4 , 8.1 , 8.3 )
5.1Severe and Fatal Immune-Mediated Adverse Reactions TECENTRIQ HYBREZA is a monoclonal antibody that belongs to a class of drugs that bind to either the programmed death-receptor 1 (PD-1) or the PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1), blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway, thereby removing inhibition of the immune response, potentially breaking peripheral tolerance and inducing immune-mediated adverse reactions. Important immune-mediated adverse reactions listed under Warnings and Precautions may not include all possible severe and fatal immune-mediated reactions.
Immune-mediated adverse reactions, which may be severe or fatal, can occur in any organ system or tissue. Immune-mediated adverse reactions can occur at any time after starting a PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibody. While immune-mediated adverse reactions usually manifest during treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibodies, immune-mediated adverse reactions can also manifest after discontinuation of PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibodies.
Early identification and management of immune-mediated adverse reactions are essential to ensure safe use of PD-1/PD-L1 blocking antibodies. Monitor patients closely for symptoms and signs that may be clinical manifestations of underlying immune-mediated adverse reactions. Evaluate liver enzymes, creatinine, and thyroid function at baseline and periodically during treatment.
In cases of suspected immune-mediated adverse reactions, initiate appropriate workup to exclude alternative etiologies, including infection. Institute medical management promptly, including specialty consultation as appropriate. Withhold or permanently discontinue TECENTRIQ HYBREZA depending on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ].
In general, if TECENTRIQ HYBREZA requires interruption or discontinuation, administer systemic corticosteroid therapy (1 to 2 mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent) until improvement to Grade 1 or less. Upon improvement to Grade 1 or less, initiate corticosteroid taper and continue to taper over at least 1 month. Consider administration of other systemic immunosuppressants in patients whose immune-mediated adverse reactions are not controlled with corticosteroid therapy.
Toxicity management guidelines for adverse reactions that do not necessarily require systemic steroids (e.g., endocrinopathies and dermatologic reactions) are discussed below. Immune-Mediated Pneumonitis TECENTRIQ HYBREZA can cause immune-mediated pneumonitis, including fatal adverse reactions. The incidence of pneumonitis is higher in patients who have received prior thoracic radiation.
Immune-mediated pneumonitis occurred in 2% (5/247) of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC receiving TECENTRIQ HYBREZA as monotherapy in…

6.1Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. Adverse Reactions of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA in Adult Patients with NSCLC The safety of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA was evaluated in IMscin001, open-label, multi-center, international, randomized trial for patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have not been exposed to cancer immunotherapy and who have had disease progression on prior platinum-based therapy [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] .
Patients with previously treated metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) either received TECENTRIQ HYBREZA (containing 1,875 mg of atezolizumab and 30,000 units of hyaluronidase) administered subcutaneously into the thigh over approximately 7 minutes every 3 weeks or intravenous atezolizumab every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Among 247 patients who received TECENTRIQ HYBREZA, 32% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 8% were exposed for greater than one year. The median age was 64 years (range: 27 to 85); 69% male; 67% White, 22% Asian, 0.8% Black or African American; 74% were non-Hispanic or Latino; 26% had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 0, 74% had an ECOG PS of 1; and 70% of patients were current or previous smokers.

👥 Use in Specific Populations ▾
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Lactation : Advise not to breastfeed. ( 8.2 )
8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on its mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] , TECENTRIQ HYBREZA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman . There are no available data on the use of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA in pregnant women. Animal studies have demonstrated that inhibition of the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway can lead to increased risk of immune-related rejection of the developing fetus resulting in fetal death (see Data ) .
Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] . In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data: TECENTRIQ HYBREZA for subcutaneous injection contains atezolizumab and hyaluronidase [see Description (11) ] .
Atezolizumab : Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with atezolizumab to evaluate its effect on reproduction and fetal development. A literature-based assessment of the effects on reproduction demonstrated that a central function of the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway is to preserve pregnancy by maintaining maternal immune tolerance to a fetus. Blockage of PD-L1 signaling has been shown in murine models of pregnancy to disrupt tolerance to a fetus and to result in an increase in fetal loss; therefore, potential risks of administering atezolizumab during pregnancy include increased rates of abortion or stillbirth.
As reported in the literature, there were no malformations related to the blockade of PD-L1/PD-1 signaling in the offspring of these animals; however, immune-mediated disorders occurred in PD-1 and PD-L1 knockout mice. Based on its mechanism of action, fetal exposure to atezolizumab may increase the risk of developing immune-mediated disorders or altering the normal immune response. Hyaluronidase : In an embryo-fetal study, mice were dosed daily by subcutaneous injection during the period of organogenesis with hyaluronidase (recombinant human) at dose levels up to 2,200,000 U/kg, which is > 2,400 times higher than the human dose.
The study found no evidence of teratogenicity. Reduced fetal weight and increased numbers of fetal resorptions were observed, with no effects found at a daily dose of 360,000 U/kg, which is > 400 times higher than the human dose. In a peri-and post-natal reproduction study, mice have been dosed daily by subcutaneous injection, with hyaluronidase (recombinant human) from implantation through lactation and weaning at dose levels up to 1,100,000 U/kg, which is > 1,200 times higher than the human dose.
The study found no adverse effects on sexual maturation, learning and memory or fertility of the offspring.
8.2Lactation Risk Summary There is no information regarding the presence of atezolizumab or hyaluronidase in human milk or its effects on the breastfed child, or on milk production. Maternal IgG is known to be present in human milk. The effects of local gastrointestinal exposure and limited systemic exposure in the breastfed child to TECENTRIQ HYBREZA are unknown.
Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed children from TECENTRIQ HYBREZA, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with TECENTRIQ HYBREZA and for 5 months after the last dose.
8.3Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Based on its mechanism of action, TECENTRIQ HYBREZA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) ] . Pregnancy Testing Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating TECENTRIQ HYBREZA [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) and Use in Specific Populations (8.1) ] .

Use of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA for this pediatric indication is supported by evidence from adequate and well controlled studies of intravenous atezolizumab in adults, and additional pharmacokinetic and safety data for intravenous atezolizumab in pediatric patients 12 years and older [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and Clinical Studies (14) ] .
Atezolizumab exposures following subcutaneous administration of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA (containing 1,875 mg of atezolizumab) every 3 weeks in pediatric patients 12 years of age and older who weigh 40 kg or greater are predicted to be within the range of those observed in adults at the same dosage. The safety and effectiveness of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA have not been established in pediatric patients <12 years of age with unresectable or metastatic ASPS. Solid Tumors and Lymphomas The safety and effectiveness of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA in pediatric patients have not been established for other approved indications.
🧓 Geriatric Use ▾
8.5Geriatric Use TECENTRIQ HYBREZA as a Single-Agent Of 247 adult patients treated with TECENTRIQ HYBREZA as monotherapy in IMscin001, 45% were 65 years and over and 10% were 75 years and over. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA have been observed between patients aged 65 years or older and younger adult patients. The safety of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA as monotherapy or in combination with other antineoplastic drugs for its approved indications [see Indications and Usage (1.1 , 1.2 , 1.3 , 1.4 , 1.5 , 1.6) ] has been established in adequate and well-controlled studies of intravenous atezolizumab as a single agent and in combination with other antineoplastic drugs.
Below is a description of geriatric use information from the intravenous atezolizumab studies. Intravenous Atezolizumab as a Single-Agent Of 2,616 adult patients with metastatic NSCLC and other tumor types treated with monotherapy intravenous atezolizumab in clinical studies, 49% were 65 years and over and 15% were 75 years and over. Of the 167 patients with MIBC treated with intravenous atezolizumab in IMvigor011, 117 (70%) patients were 65 years of age and older and 44 (26%) patients were 75 years of age and older.
No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between intravenous atezolizumab-treated patients aged 65 years or older and younger patients. Intravenous Atezolizumab in Combination with Other Antineoplastic Drugs Of 2,421 adult patients with NSCLC and EC-SCLC treated with intravenous atezolizumab in combination with other antineoplastic drugs in clinical studies, 48% were 65 years and over and 10% were 75 years and over. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between intravenous atezolizumab-treated patients aged 65 years or older and younger adult patients.
Intravenous Atezolizumab in Combination with Lurbinectedin Of 242 adult patients with ES-SCLC treated with intravenous atezolizumab in combination with lurbinectedin in IMforte, 124 (51%) patients were 65 years of age and older, while 29 (12%) patients were 75 years of age and older. No overall differences in effectiveness were observed between older and younger patients. There was a higher incidence of Grade 3 or 4 adverse reactions (45% vs 31%) and treatment discontinuation (11% vs 0.8%) in patients ≥ 65 years of age compared to younger patients, respectively.
🧬 Clinical Pharmacology ▾
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
12.1Mechanism of Action PD-L1 may be expressed on tumor cells and/or tumor infiltrating immune cells and can contribute to the inhibition of the anti-tumor immune response in the tumor microenvironment. Binding of PD-L1 to the PD-1 and B7.1 receptors found on T-cells and antigen presenting cells suppresses cytotoxic T-cell activity, T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. Atezolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to PD-L1 and blocks its interactions with both PD-1 and B7.1 receptors.
This releases the PD-L1/PD-1 mediated inhibition of the immune response, including activation of the anti-tumor immune response without inducing antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. In syngeneic mouse tumor models, blocking PD-L1 activity resulted in decreased tumor growth. In mouse models of cancer, dual inhibition of the PD-1/PD-L1 and MAPK pathways suppresses tumor growth and improves tumor immunogenicity through increased antigen presentation and T-cell infiltration and activation compared to targeted therapy alone.
Hyaluronan is a polysaccharide found in the extracellular matrix of the subcutaneous tissue. It is depolymerized by the naturally occurring enzyme hyaluronidase. Unlike the stable structural components of the interstitial matrix, hyaluronan has a half-life of approximately 0.5 days.
Hyaluronidase increases permeability of the subcutaneous tissue by depolymerizing hyaluronan. In the doses administered, hyaluronidase in TECENTRIQ HYBREZA acts transiently and locally. The effects of hyaluronidase are reversible and permeability of the subcutaneous tissue is restored within 24 to 48 hours.
12.2Pharmacodynamics The exposure-response relationship and time course of pharmacodynamic response for the safety and effectiveness of atezolizumab and hyaluronidase have not been fully characterized.
12.3Pharmacokinetics When comparing atezolizumab exposure following subcutaneous TECENTRIQ HYBREZA to that of intravenous atezolizumab in Study IMscin001 [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ], the geometric mean ratio (GMR) (90% CI) for Cycle 1 C trough was 1.05 (0.88, 1.24) and AUC 0-21days was 0.87 (0.83, 0.92); the steady state C trough was 1.15 (1.05, 1.26) and AUC was 1.01 (0.94, 1.08) . Steady-state was achieved 6 to 9 weeks. The systemic accumulation ratio following administration of the approved recommended dosage of TECENTRIQ HYBREZA was 2.2.
Absorption The mean absolute bioavailability (CV%) of atezolizumab was 72% (83%) and the median time (range) to reach maximum atezolizumab concentration (T max ) was 4.5 (2.2, 9) days. Distribution The volume of distribution of atezolizumab at steady state was
6.9L. Elimination The atezolizumab clearance (CV%) was
0.2L/day (29%) and the terminal half-life was 27 days. Atezolizumab clearance decreased over time, with a mean maximal reduction (CV%) from baseline value of 17% (41%); this decrease in clearance is not considered clinically significant. Specific Populations No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab were observed based on age, body weight, sex, albumin levels, tumor burden, region, race, mild or moderate renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate 30 to 89 mL/minute/1.73 m 2 ), mild hepatic impairment (bilirubin ≤ ULN and AST > ULN or bilirubin > 1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST), moderate hepatic impairment (bilirubin >1.5 to 3× ULN and any AST), level of PD-L1 expression, and performance status.
Pediatric patients Atezolizumab exposure following subcutaneous administration of atezolizumab 1875 mg and 30,000 units hyaluronidase every 3 weeks in pediatric patients aged 12 years and older who weigh 40 kg or greater is predicted to be within range of those observed in adult patients at the same dosage.
