Abstract The emergence of biosimilars is generally considered as an opportunity to guarantee accessibility to affordable treatments and to enhance financial sustainability of national health systems. Since 2017, five biosimilars of adalimumab were approved by the European Medicines Agency [EMA] for use in inflammatory bowel disease: ABP 510, SB5, GP2017, FKB327, and MSB11022. In this position statement, the available efficacy and safety data of the different adalimumab biosimilars in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases are summarised. Furthermore, the Belgian IBD research group [BIRD] formulates statements concerning the use of adalimumab biosimilars in inflammatory bowel disease.
