When people are impacted by diseases, they deserve the best possible treatment. Thanks to the development of innovative medicines, it is possible to achieve increasingly better treatment outcomes for them.

With a 40-year history, Amgen is dedicated to developing innovative and effective biologics and biosimilars for people with serious diseases. Our product portfolio covers diverse therapeutic areas, including oncology, hematology, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and inflammatory diseases. With our medicines we reach more than 10 million patients in approximately 100 countries worldwide.

Since 1997 our facility in Breda, Amgen Europe, plays a crucial role. This is where our medicines are labeled, packaged, and distributed throughout Europe and a growing number of countries in other parts of the world. The Dutch commercial and medical organization is also located in Breda and ensures the availability of our medicines and clinical trials in the Netherlands.

To further improve the lives of people with serious diseases, we also collaborate with other parties on various solutions that enable appropriate care (passende zorg).

This is how Amgen works every day to improve patient care.
