Facing up to reality? What to do if M72/AS01E doses are limited
The Ph3 trial for the vaccine candidate M72/AS01E is underway, and, assuming a
positive result, could be licensed by 2030. Modelling suggested a large potential impact from
introducing M72/AS01E but assumed an unconstrained dose supply. However, at least initially, it is
likely that M72/AS01E will be supply-constrained. We estimated the effect of decisions surrounding
the allocation of constrained doses on the potential global impact of M72/AS01E
Cost and Cost Effectiveness of Novel Tuberculosis Vaccines in Low-and Middle-income Countries: A Systematic Review of Modelling Studies
This review addressed the costs and cost-effectiveness of novel tuberculosis (TB) vaccines compared to the current standard of care (BCG) in various settings and for different age groups in LMICs
Modelling to estimate the health impact of novel tuberculosis vaccines on TB burden in people living with HIV
This project will inform tuberculosis (TB) prevention efforts by estimating the health impact of novel tuberculosis vaccines on TB burden in people living with HIV (PLHIV) using a novel Mycobacterium tuberculosis transmission model. HIV confers the largest relative risk of TB, and new TB vaccines could be an important tool to prevent TB; however, modelling studies have not systematically investigated how new vaccines will affect TB burden in PLHIV. In stage 1 of this project, we aim to investigate TB vaccine impact in PLHIV where vaccine product characteristics and delivery vary by recipient HIV status. In stage 2, we aim to quantify how complex vaccine targeting strategies and incorporating additional granularity in HIV/AIDS natural history might affect vaccine impact estimates in PLHIV
Bridging the gap: evaluating high TB burden country data needs to support the potential introduction of TB vaccines for adolescents and adults: a workshop report
A workshop to asked high TB burden country experts about what epidemiological, impact, feasibility and acceptability data they anticipated they would need to guide TB vaccine introduction.
Meeting the 2030 End TB goals in the wake of COVID-19: a modelling study of countries in the USAID TB portfolio.
From 2023 onwards we modelled a combination of interventions acting at different stages of the care cascade, including improved diagnostics; reducing the patient care seeking delay; and the rollout of a disease-preventing vaccine from 2025 onwards.
Impact and cost-effectiveness of new tuberculosis vaccines in low- and middle-income countries.
To aid in prioritizing the development of tuberculosis (TB) vaccines most likely to reach the 2050 TB elimination goal, we estimated the impact and cost-effectiveness of a range of vaccine profiles in low- and middle-income countries.
The impact of alternative delivery strategies for novel tuberculosis vaccines in low-income and middle-income countries: a modelling study
We estimated the impact of novel tuberculosis vaccines in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) in several delivery scenarios.
The cost and cost-effectiveness of novel tuberculosis vaccines in low- and middle-income countries: A modeling study
We assessed future costs, cost-savings, and cost-effectiveness of introducing novel TB vaccines in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) for a range of product characteristics and delivery strategies.
The potential impact of novel tuberculosis vaccines on health equity and financial protection in low-income and middle-income countries
We assessed the potential financial risk protection from introducing novel TB vaccines, and how health and economic benefits would be distributed across income quintiles.
