  1. Biologic

    A biologic medical product, also known as a biological product or more simply as a biologic or biological, is a medicinal product such as a vaccine, blood or blood component, allergenic, somatic cell, gene therapy, tissue, recombinant therapeutic protein or living cells that are used as therapeutics to treat diseases. Biologics are created by biological processes, rather than being chemically synthesized. Biologics are technically a subset of biopharmaceuticals, though the latter term is more likely to be used to refer to marcromolecular products like protein-based and nucleic-acid-based drugs, while the term biologic is used more often when the medical product consists of cellular or tissue based products. Biologics can be composed of sugars, proteins or nucleic acids or complex combinations of these substances, or may be living entities such as cells and tissues. Biologics are isolated from a variety of natural sources — human, animal or microorganism — and may be produced by biotechnology methods and other technologies. Gene-based and cellular biologics, for example, often are at the forefront of biomedical research, and may be used to treat a variety of medical conditions for which no other treatments are available.
