Author notes
Competing Interests: I have read the journal's policy and the authors of this manuscript have the following
competing interests: CAR has received honoraria for lectures on the therapeutic equivalence
of generics and biosimilars from Allergan, Biosidus, Novartis and Pfizer, unrelated
to this research project. AFZ has received honoraria for advisory boards and lectures
on generics and biomilars therapeutic equivalence not related to the content of this
paper from Allergan, Amgen, Janssen, Lilly, Merck, Novartis, Novo Nordisk, Pfizer,
Roche and Sanofi. None of these companies or any other were involved in the design,
execution, or publication of this study. IJT, JDO and OV have declared that no competing
interests exist. This does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing
data and materials.
