CVS to Buy Aetna for $69B
Updated thoughts: • Trump administration has shown it's not receptive to
vertical integration deals • This created mega PBM with horizontal (patient) &
vertical (drugs) leverage • CVS’s largest customer is Aetna • Estimating $750M in initial “synergies” (vast majority will
come from drug negotiation power)• CVS wants to defend itself from vertically integrated
potential competitors (like Amazon)

Cigna to Buy ExpressScripts for $67B
Initial thoughts: • Fell into similar review as CVS/Aetna• Created largest PBM with horizontal (patient) & vertical
(drugs) leverage • ExpressScripts is one of ABC’s largest customers• Cigna procures orals from Cardinal’s via OptumHealth
relationship (formerly Catamaran) • ExpressScripts has a specialty distribution arm
(Curascript) -> further mergers to be expected

Walmart in talks to acquire Humana
Initial thoughts: • Will fall into similar review as CVS/Aetna & Cigna/Express
if agreed upon• Humana already teamed up with Walmart for low priced,
in network, generic orals • Walmart is McKesson’s largest customer• Humana procures orals from ABC • With Humana, Walmart has a horizontal patient network
& vertical drug distribution with the convenience of retail stores to undercut price to employers

Biosimilars: Why is there so much buzz now?
● We are entering time where biologics will go biosimilar in US (not just supportive care)
● In 2019, Avastin, Rituxan, Herceptin will have biosim competition ○ Herceptin biosim approved Jan 2019 (Samsung) &
Mylan and Amgen expected to follow● Announced that biosims will have their own j-code
Biosimilar use and regulation exists in Europe and is being defined in the U.S.
● Naming & interchangeability to be determined● Cost & Payer formulary will determine use

Remicade:
● Went biosimilar in the EU in 2015, US in 2016 ● In Europe, market share dropped 50% in the last two years, when measured
by units sold (primarily to Celltrion) 1
● In US, Remicade has barely lost any market share due to J&J volume based contracting (main competitor is Pfizer - anticompetitive lawsuit pending) 1 2
Enbrel:
● Went biosimilar in the EU in April 2017, US delayed (min later 2018)● In Europe, markets hare dropped 25% in the last year, when measured by
units sold (primarily to Samsung) 1
Rituxan:
● Went biosimilar in the EU in April 2017, US anticipated 2019● In Europe, Rituxan market share dropped 13% in Q3 2017 (to Celltrion &
Novartis / Sandoz) 1●

Existing Biosimilars:
A Tale of 2 Markets
© Flatiron Health 2017 22
1. Biosimilars are not new - just new in the U.S.
● Adoption has become standard of care in Europe
2. Still unclear how they will be priced (Brand vs. Generic)
● Biosim manufacturers will include historically branded companies ● Amgen received FDA approval for biosimilar Avastin in Sept 2017 &
Mylan for Herceptin in December 2017, Samsung for Herceptin in Jan 2019
3. US Market opportunity is huge - adoption is key
● Worldwide annual Roche Sales of Avastin, Herceptin & Rituxan exceeded $21B, more than half coming from the US 1
● Fear that Insurers / PBMs may stick with branded biologics due to rebates
