Policy and frameworks

Evidence considerations for vaccine policy development for tuberculosis vaccines intended for adults and adolescents

The ECVP facilitates early engagement and alignment across the stakeholders involved in vaccine development and those responsible for vaccine regulatory, policy, funding and country introduction decisions. This framework aims to anticipate and collectively delineate the clinical trial, observational, and other data likely to be required by global and national policymakers, and to do so when most valuable – during development of the late-stage clinical plan, including the design of the pivotal licensure trial.

A global framework to prepare for country introduction of new TB vaccines for adults and adolescents

New vaccines for the prevention of TB disease in adolescents and adults could become available in the next 3-5 years. WHO has therefore developed a Global Framework to prepare for Country Introduction of New TB Vaccines for Adults and Adolescents which aims to guide countries and global stakeholders in preparing for the introduction and scale-up in countries. This framework has been drafted in collaboration with a WHO Expert Advisory Group and in consultation with other stakeholders, and describes critical activities to prepare for introduction decision-making and subsequent implementation and impact of new TB vaccines for adults and adolescents.
