A White Paper on Advancing Long‐Acting Therapeutics for Maternal and Pediatric Health by Bridging Gaps in Clinical Research, Access and Regulation

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
As use cases for long‐acting therapeutics expand across clinical indications, there is a critical need to ensure the inclusion of women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, infants and children—populations with a historical gap in the availability of interventions already approved for use in adults.

Long‐Acting Therapeutics in Pediatric Health: Bridging Innovation and Access

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Children have distinct therapeutic needs arising from age‐dependent physiology, disease epidemiology, formulation requirements, dosing considerations, and safety vulnerabilities. Despite substantial reductions in childhood mortality over the past three decades, nearly 5 million children under five died in 2023, with infectious diseases continuing to ...

The Governance Gap: Democratizing Drug Development Through Decision Architecture

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Drug development is most exposed to governance failure where it can least afford it, in global health. The field has more predictive power than at any point in its history and roughly the same failure rate it had a decade ago. We argue that this paradox persists because the field has invested heavily in prediction science while neglecting decision ...

Do Malaria Vector control Measures Impact Disease-Related Behaviour and Knowledge? Evidence from a Large-scale Larviciding Intervention in Tanzania. [PDF]

, 2013
Recent efforts of accelerated malaria control towards the long-term goal of elimination had significant impacts in reducing malaria transmission. While these efforts need to be sustained over time, a scenario of low transmission could bring about changes
