Cigna Healthcare, a pharmacy manager, announced it will prefer adalimumab biosimilars Boehringer Ingelheim’s Cyltezo®, Sandoz’s unbranded adalimumab-adaz, and Sandoz’s Hyrimoz high-concentration formulation alongside the originator product, Abbvie’s Humira® on its national preferred, standard, performance, and legacy commercial formularies.  Organon/Samsung Bioepis’ Hadlima®, in both high- and low-concentration formulations, will be preferred alongside Humira® on its value, advantage, and total savings formularies.  The announcement will be effective from 1 September 2023.   

In the first week of July 2023, seven biosimilars to AbbVie’s Humira® were made commercially available in the US.
