Book excerpt: This position statement aims to support TB regimen development by highlighting key clinical trial characteristics to help advance novel therapies. It summarises key innovations in TB clinical trial designs, ranging from pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) modelling and new advances in biomarker development to the value of novel clinical trial design methodologies and post-licensure observational studies. For various stages along the development pathway, outstanding challenges are described alongside possible solutions to help overcome these issues. Beyond a welcome expansion of the TB drug pipeline, innovations in TB drug development and clinical trial design are anticipated to accelerate the development and evaluation as well as facilitate approval of novel regimens to treat all forms of TB.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent, and one of the leading causes of death from antimicrobial resistance. To reach the milestones of the End TB Strategy, rapid progress must be made towards universal access to existing TB tools and services in the context of universal health coverage and socioeconomic development. At the same time, new technologies must be developed and introduced to make meaningful progress. The Global Strategy for Tuberculosis Research and Innovation will support the efforts of governments and other stakeholders to accelerate TB research and innovation, and improve equitable access to the benefits of research. This document is aimed primarily at Member States, particularly ministries of health, science and technology, finance and education.

Book excerpt: Tuberculosis is one of the leading causes of death in the world today, with 4,500 people dying from the disease every day. Many cases of TB can be cured by available antibiotics, but some TB is resistant to multiple drugs-a major and growing threat worldwide. The Institute of Medicine's Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation hosted a workshop on November 5, 2008, to address the mounting concern of drug-resistant TB. The session brought together a wide range of international experts to discuss what is known and not known about this growing threat, and to explore possible solutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHO has published a global TB report every year since 1997. The main aim of the report is to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the TB epidemic, and of progress in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the disease, at global, regional and country levels. This is done in the context of recommended global TB strategies and targets endorsed by WHO?s Member States, broader development goals set by the United Nations (UN) and targets set in the political declaration at the first UN high-level meeting on TB (held in September 2018). The 2019 edition of the global TB report was released on 17 October 2019. The data in this report are updated annually. Please note that direct comparisons between estimates of TB disease burden in the latest report and previous reports are not appropriate. The most recent time-series of estimates are published in the 2019 global TB report.
