Cost analysis of the TB-PRACTECAL clinical trial on novel tuberculosis treatment regimens
Clinical trials are considered to be the largest contributor to pharmaceutical development costs. However, public disclosure of the costs of individual clinical trials is rare. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) sponsored a phase 2b-3 randomised controlled trial (TB-PRACTECAL), which identified a new treatment regimen for drug-resistant TB. We aimed to analyse the costs of undertaking a pivotal clinical trial conducted in relatively low-resource heal…
Recently developed drugs for the treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis
Two drugs with novel mechanisms of action, the diarylquinoline bedaquiline and the nitroimidazole delamanid—as well as pretomanid from the same class of drugs as delamanid—have recently become available to treat drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) after many decades of little innovation in the field of DR-TB treatment. Despite evidence of improved efficacy and reduced toxicity of multidrug regimens including the two agents, access to bedaquiline …
Germans 25 years after reunification — How much do they know about the German Democratic Republic and what is their value judgment of the socialist regime
In this article, we evaluate German residents’ level of knowledge and their value judgment, that is, positive or negative, of the German Democratic Republic (GDR). Based on a simple random internet survey that asked 100 citizens from the East and 100 citizens from the West to describe life in the former GDR in at least 200 characters, we have found some nuanced results with regard to our two themes: First, our results indicate that the average Ge…
