Demand insights for uptake of TB vaccine
Summarize the major swing factors that would determine countries’ preference and effectively drive the uptake of a TB vaccine in terms of the date of introduction and the scale of catch-up campaign to reach the steady state
Population-level health and economic impacts of introducing Vaccae vaccination in China: a modelling study
modelling the population-level health and economic impacts of introducing Vaccae vaccination to inform policy-makers in China
Is neglect of self-clearance biasing TB vaccine impact estimates?
exploring the inclusion of self-clearance in models of tuberculosis affects the estimates of vaccine impact in China and India
The full value of vaccine assessments concept—current opportunities and recommendations
Building on the success of the recent applications of the FVVA framework, we see important new opportunities to maximize the future utility of FVVAs to country and global stakeholders and provide a proof-of-concept for analyses in other areas of disease control and prevention.
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.
Estimating the potential public health value of BCG revaccination
Using previously calibrated models for India and South Africa, we simulated BCG revaccination assuming 45% prevention-of-infection efficacy, and we evaluated scenarios varying additional prevention-of-disease efficacy between +50% (reducing risk) and −50% (increasing risk).
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.
Mapping the existing body of knowledge on new and repurposed TB vaccine implementation: A scoping review
By synthesizing the existing body of knowledge, this review offers comprehensive insights into the current state of research on implementation of these TB adults and adolescent vaccines. Offering insights into key dimensions: (1) epidemiological impact, (2) costing, cost-effectiveness, and/or economic impact, (3) acceptability, and the (4) feasibility of implementation; this includes implementation strategies of target populations, and health system capabilities.
