Alvotech, along with its various subsidiaries, is dedicated to the global development and manufacturing of biosimilar pharmaceuticals. Its product offerings span key therapeutic categories, encompassing autoimmune conditions, eye disorders, bone diseases, and cancer. A flagship program for the company is AVT02, a high-concentration biosimilar equivalent to Humira. This candidate is designed to address a range of inflammatory illnesses, including rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and plaque psoriasis. Similarly, AVT04 is a biosimilar version of Stelara, targeting inflammatory conditions such as psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and plaque psoriasis. For ophthalmic conditions, AVT06 serves as a biosimilar to Eylea, intended for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration, macular edema, and diabetic retinopathy. Currently in preclinical stages, AVT03 is a biosimilar to Xgeva and Prolia, with the goal of preventing bone fractures, alleviating spinal cord compression, reducing the necessity for radiation or bone surgery in certain cancer patients, and both preventing bone loss and increasing bone density. Additionally, Alvotech's pipeline features AVT05, an early-stage biosimilar for Simponi and Simponi Aria, which is being developed for various inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis. Other promising candidates include AVT16, an immunology biosimilar; AVT23, a late-stage biosimilar to Xolair, aimed at treating nasal polyps; and AVT33, an oncology biosimilar. Established in 2013, Alvotech maintains its primary corporate headquarters in Reykjavik, Iceland.
