4 Innovative mechanisms for financing MDRTB

5 Expanding access: push, pull and crosscutting mechanisms Push-mechanisms - financing of R&D costs and reduction of risks by provision of direct R&D funding and/or other resources; Pull-mechanisms - creation of market incentives, signal presence of demand, sustain and favour uptake, influence market dynamics; Cross-cutting initiatives - improvement of regulatory environment, strengthening procurement, quality assurance, supply chain management infrastructures, health systems and capabilities in endemic countries.

6 Push Mechanisms: Product Development Partnerships Global Alliance for TB Drug Development (TB Alliance) AERAS TB Vaccine Initiative (TBVI) International AIDS Vaccine Initiative (IAVI) International Partnership for Microbicides (IPM) Malaria Vaccine Initiative (MVI) Product Access Partnerships Global Alliance for the Elimination of Lymphatic Filariasis Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI) International Trachoma Initiative (ITI) Malarone Donation Program Mectizan Donation Program Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV)

7 Pull Mechanisms: Global Financing Institutions The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (The Global Fund) Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI Alliance) UNITAID

8 PPPDs along R&D value chain by disease

11 MDR-TB Funding Needs US$ 47 billion over 2011 to 2015, including almost US$ 37 million for implementation and almost US$ 10 billion for research and development: DOTS: US$ 22.6 billion MDR-TB: US$ 7.1 billion TB/HIV: US$ 2.8 billion 11 Prof Rifat Atun, Imperial College London, 2012

12 Global Fund Resource Allocation ( ) US$ 12 billion approved for HIV grants in 146 countries US$ 3.6 billion approved for TB efforts in 116 countries US$ 6.1 billion approved for malaria efforts in 84 countries

13 Global Fund approved funding for TB control

14 US$ billions Expected Global Fund TB expenditures (a) and contribution to total funding need for DOTS, MDR-TB and TB/HIV treatment, low- and middle-income countries Global Fund/Total TB control implementation need (%) Korenromp, Atun et al PLoS One 2012 Prof Rifat Atun, Imperial College London, 2012

15 MDR-TB Funding Global Fund Target - Fund at least [50%] of MDR-TB treatment needs 27 countries represent approximately 85% of the world s estimated number of incident MDR-TB and XDR-TB cases: In 23 countries, funding for MDR-TB care and treatment has increased from $ 0.1 Billion in 2009 to $ 0.5 Billion in Only Estonia, Latvia, and the Russian Federation are using domestic sources finance MDR-TB control. If domestic funding is not mobilized, the Global Fund may be only funding source for second-line drugs and MDR-TB management in Armenia, Bangladesh, Bulgaria, Georgia, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan.

16 Global Fund Contributions to International Service Delivery Targets/Needs Global Fund-supported programs account for around half of the estimated service delivery, but large unmet need remains.

17 Treatments needed (millions) Cost (US$ billions Resource needs for TB control in EECA Global Plan to Stop TB , EECA region: DOTS MDR TB/HIV DOTS MDR TB/HIV Control and cost of MDR-TB will increasingly determine the overall sustainability of TB control in EECA

20 Imbalance in industrial, health and financing policies Industrial policies encourage technology push, but health systems constrain innovation: Not enough emphasis on demand side factors Inadequate incentives and downstream rewards for adoption Inefficiency/ineffectiveness tolerated No incentives for innovation Atun RA, Gurol-Urganci I, Sheridan D.
