  • 2018 Compiled Snapshots
    Dear WIPO Re:Search Members and Friends, Happy New Year! It comes as no surprise to the WIPO Re:Search community that antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has risen to the forefront of the global public health agenda. Since the Consortium’s inception in 2011, BVGH has established numerous WIPO Re:Search collaborations aimed at developing novel drugs to combat drug resistant tuberculosis, outpace emerging antimalarial resistance, and more. Although continued drug development is needed, there is mounting evidence that vaccines are necessary to prevent and circumvent AMR. For example, a recent article demonstrated that if children across 75 countries were vaccinated against pneumonia, the infections prevented would result in 11 million less days of antibiotic use annually. Given the relative costs of vaccines and antibiotics, vaccinations are also a cost-effective approach to AMR control. Beyond drugs, BVGH is also catalyzing vaccine development. Notably, through WIPO Re:Search, researchers at Takeda Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institutes of Health (NIH) have formalized a partnership to assess an injection-free administration of a malaria vaccine candidate. Please continue reading this Snapshot to learn more. I am pleased to welcome our two newest Members, the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and the University of South Carolina. As we dive into the New Year, BVGH thanks you for your continued support and participation in WIPO Re:Search. And as always, please forward this Snapshot to your colleagues and reach out to us with any partnering requests or ideas. Sincerely, Jennifer Dent President, BVGH Accelerating Diagnostic Development for Tuberculosis The Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics (FIND), McGill International TB Centre, Stop TB Partnership, Unitaid, and WHO have launched the TB Diagnostics Critical Pathway, an online tool for tuberculosis diagnostic developers.
