The Global Plan to Stop TB
The Global PlanThe Global Plan
1. 10-year perspective on the road to 20502. Response to country needs for long-term planning3. Outlines financial requirements for sustainability4. A pathway towards the Partnership's targets for 2015 and
goal for 20505. A Plan with credibility will serve a key advocacy role6. Treatment of 50 million people with TB, 3 million TB/HIV
co-infected patients on ARV, and ~ 1 million with MDR7. Saving of 14 million lives from 2006-2015
8. The first new TB drug introduced by 20109. The "point of care" diagnostics introduced by 201010.Develop a new vaccine by 2015

Mission & Mission & Objectives of Stop Objectives of Stop TB Vaccine WGTB Vaccine WG
I. Mission To ensure the availability of a safe, effective and reasonably priced
new TB vaccine by 2015
II. Objectives Coordinate international activities that strengthen and accelerate the
development and introduction of improved TB vaccines
Promote a concerted approach to development and introduction of improved TB vaccines by encouraging interactions among groups involved in scientific research, clinical/epidemiological investigations, industrial development, regulatory and public health programs
Develop and implement a strategic action plan for the Initiative for Vaccine Research program at WHO to provide a framework for the development, clinical study and introduction of improved TB vaccines
Interact with Partners to identify significant impediments to commercial development of improved TB vaccines and establish mechanisms for cooperation and collaborations that lead to accelerated vaccine development
