U.S. regulators have approved the first near-copy of Enbrel, drugmaker Amgen’s pricey biologic medicine for treating rheumatoid arthritis and other immune system disorders.
The follow-up version of Enbrel, dubbed Erelzi, was developed by Swiss drug giant Novartis, which would not disclose the planned list price for Erelzi.
