NADAC Week of Sep 23: Biosimilar Surge Drives Cost Pressure While Broader Market Skews Lower

The September 23, 2026 NADAC release compared against September 16 shows a market with more line-item decreases (15,294) than increases (13,311) across 29,892 comparable NDCs, indicating a mild net downward bias in pricing activity despite a few large upside outliers. The standout event is a $3.0M weighted increase in Fulphila (pegfilgrastim-jmdb) from Biocon Biologics, which single-handedly drove the Leukocyte Growth Factor class to the top of this week's cost-pressure rankings and made Biocon the largest manufacturer swing. On the relief side, Kesimpta (ofatumumab) posted the largest single-product decline at $469.9K, while the Corticosteroid class—spanning 1,122 drugs—registered a modest but broad-based $436.6K decrease, reinforcing that downward movement this week is more widely distributed than the upside, which is concentrated in a handful of specialty biologics.
