Harmonization and Cooperation in TB Clinical Trials: A Blueprint for Effective Strategies

This document outlines key strategies for harmonizing and cooperating in tuberculosis (TB) clinical trials. It focuses on critical aspects such as determining TB prevalence and incidence, selecting trial sites, and identifying target populations. It emphasizes the design of clinical trials with appropriate endpoints to evaluate efficacy, addresses regulatory and ethical concerns, and discusses plans for post-licensure sustainability. Key questions explored include strategies to prevent the reactivation of latent TB, the effectiveness of vaccines in reducing Mtb transmission, and collaborative site infrastructure among organizations in endemic regions.
