Attitudes towards new tuberculosis vaccines among adults, adolescents and their caregivers in southern Mozambique

2024

We investigated willingness to be vaccinated with a new TB vaccine in a high HIV and TB burden setting in southern Mozambique in 2024 using a mixed methods approach involving a cross-sectional survey and concurrent in-depth interviews.

Anticipating tuberculosis vaccine acceptability in Kenya and South Africa

2015-2026

Hypothetical vaccines

Assesses willingness to receive a new TB vaccine and explores attitudes, vaccine confidence, hesitancy, information needs and factors influencing potential uptake among adults, adolescents and caregivers in southern Mozambique. The study used surveys and in-depth interviews and found 77% willingness to receive a new TB vaccine among adults and adolescents.

Acceptability of a proposed new tuberculosis vaccine among people deprived of liberty in Brazil

2025

Hypothetical vaccines

Assesses acceptance of a hypothetical new TB vaccine and factors associated with vaccine hesitancy among people deprived of liberty in Brazil. The study surveyed 941 people across eight prison units in six Brazilian cities. It found 95.2% reported that they would accept a new TB vaccine if available

Acceptability of and confidence in novel tuberculosis vaccines among adults living with HIV

2026

Hypothetical vaccines

Objective: Several novel tuberculosis vaccines (NTVs) are being evaluated in clinical trials. Understanding the perception of acceptability and confidence in NTVs will inform implementation strategies. Conclusion: NTV acceptability was high amongst these PWH, and they preferred community-based delivery models. Our findings may inform strategies to increase implementation of NTVs among PWH in South Africa.

New Tuberculosis vaccines for people with HIV

2025

Hypothetical vaccines

Mathematical modelling study assessing how different strategies for vaccinating people with and without HIV could reduce TB cases among people with HIV in high HIV/TB burden countries

The potential impact of novel tuberculosis vaccine introduction on economic growth in low- and middle-income countries

2023

Hypothetical vaccines

Estimates the potential economic impact of introducing novel TB vaccines in 105 low- and middle- income countries. It compares ifnant and adolescents/ adult vaccination scenarios and models their effects on TB- related mortality, morbidity, healthcare costs and GDP. Finding support decision making on the future development and introduciton of novel TB vaccines

Affordability of adult tuberculosis vaccination in India and China: A dynamic transmission model-based analysis

2021

M72/AS01e

To estimate the total disability adjusted life years (DALYs) averted by the vaccination programme, we simulated a 50% efficacy vaccine providing 10-years of protection in post-infection populations between 2027 and 2050 in India and China using a dynamic transmission model of M. tuberculosis.

Global TB vaccine partnership

2011-2023

The Global Tuberculosis Vaccine Partnership (GTBVP) is a forum for key stakeholders in TB vaccine R&D to identify and address barriers impeding TB vaccine R&D and to discuss R&D priorities in order to help inform funding decisions

Modelling impact of TB vaccination vs other interventions/policies

2023

Creating evidence to support tuberculosis decision-makers in reducing the global burden of Tuberculosis

Feasibility of novel adult tuberculosis vaccination in South Africa: a cost-effectiveness and budget impact analysis

2022

M72/AS01e

We conducted expert interviews to identify plausible vaccination implementation strategies for the novel M72/AS01E vaccine candidate. The strategies were defined in terms of target population, coverage, vaccination schedule and delivery mode. We modelled these strategies to estimate long-term resource requirements and health benefits arising from vaccination over 2025–2050.
