1 Tuberculosis Vaccines: A strategic blueprint for the next decade Co-editors: Michael J. Brennan and Jelle Thole

2 Estimated number of cases Estimated number of deaths 1.45 million (range: 1.2–1.6 million) 8.8 million (range: 8.5–9.2 million) 440,000 (range: 390,000–510,000) All forms of TB Multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) HIV-associated TB 1.1 million (13%) (range: 1.0–1.2 million) 350,000 (range: 320,000–390,000) The Global Burden of TB -2010 about 150,000 1/3 of the global population (2 billion) is estimated to be latently infected with TB and at risk of developing the disease later in life

4 Predicted impact of new TB vaccine Young and Dye. 2006. Cell 124:683-7

5 Calmette & Guérin developed the only available TB vaccine: BCG (1906-1921) BCG reduces risk of severe pediatric TB disease - 40 thousand cases per year Protection against adult pulmonary TB, which accounts for most TB worldwide, is poor or variable at best Not known to protect against latent infection or prevent reactivation High risk of disseminated BCG in HIV positive infants Why new TB vaccines

7 Why a strategic Blueprint? Outline the major challenges and key issues for the next decade and communicate them to broader audience Build consensus on key issues Demonstrate a coordinated approach to TB vaccine development Use key challenges and questions in Blueprint as a rallying point for forming new partnerships Use issues outlined in Blueprint for soliciting specific funding from donors.

8 History of TB Vaccine Development 200020220092011 2000 2002 2009 2011 No new preventive TB vaccines in clinical trials 1st preventive vaccine enters clinical trials (MVA85A) 1st Phase IIb proof-of-concept of preventive vaccine initiated 15 vaccines studied in clinical trials, 12 were in clinical trials Global Forum I Geneva 2001 Blueprint I 1998 Past Decade of Progress Global Forum II Estonia 2010 Annecy “Out of Box” Vancouver, Keystone TB Les Diablerets, TBVAC Advocacy StopTB WG Blueprint II March 2012 20112012 2013 to 2020 Next Decade of Progress Phase III trials of preventive vaccines One new TB vaccine introduced Correlate of vaccine immunity established Novel vaccines for all populations developed Resources obtained that match need Global Forum III Cape Town, 2013

9 Tuberculosis Vaccines: A Strategic Blueprint for the Next Decade A unified global strategy Renewed, intensified and well integrated international effort Outlining major scientific challenges, critical activities and crucial questions

10 5 priority areas / 14 critical activities Creativity in research and discovery Correlates of Immunity and Biomarkers for TB Vaccines Clinical Trials – Harmonisation and Cooperation Rational Selection of TB Vaccine Candidates Building Support through Advocacy, Communications and Resource Mobilisation

11 Creativity in Research and Discovery Identify mechanisms of protective immunity Introduce new vaccine mechanisms Facilitate translational research, comparative preclinical studies and animal models

12 Correlates of Immunity and Biomarkers for TB Vaccines Explore novel approaches to identify correlates of immunity Introduce novel assays in efficacy trials to help establish correlates of immunity. Identify signatures of vaccine efficacy

13 Clinical trials: harmonization & cooperation Determine TB prevalence and incidence, select trial sites and choose target populations Design clinical trials to determine efficacy using better defined clinical endpoints Address regulatory, ethical and sustainability issues

14 Rational selection of TB vaccine candidates Establish global criteria for assessing vaccine candidates in clinical studies Obtain consensus on criteria to advance new candidates

15 Building support through advocacy, communications & resource mobilization Expand financing Raise awareness and build support for the role of new TB vaccines Broaden the base of TB vaccine advocates

16 Implementing the Blueprint March 20 th – Journal Publication Date and Launch – Global Press Release from Working Group, Aeras, TBVI – Adapted press releases for South Africa and other partners also on March 20 – Johannesburg Press Briefing, March 20 th – March 20 th /21 st – Congressional briefings in Washington, DC – March 22 nd – TBVI Event in Brussels Companion piece developed for distribution to broader audiences 3 rd Flobal Forum on TB Vaccines (March 2013, Cape Town) structured to address key challenges in Blueprint (www.tbvaccine2013.org)
