Executive Summary
There was hardly time to yawn at the US FDA's unusually short 16 December meeting to discuss its proposed recommendations for a biosimilars user fee programme, with a handful of industry and other stakeholders getting straight to the point with their mostly anticipated comments and few questions raised by regulators at the less than two hour public event.
