description | •The TB vaccine development pipeline moves slowly and includes few candidates.•TB progression-associated candidate antigens have recently been identified.•Investigation to identify vaccine-induced correlates of protection against TB is underway.•The mRNA platform may accelerate screening and manufacturing of new TB vaccines.•Transparency and community engagement are critical for mRNA vaccine acceptability.•Capacity building in lesser resourced regions may improve equitable TB vaccine access.
Tuberculosis (TB) is a global health emergency. Across the globe, approximately 2 billion people are currently infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), and of those, 5–10% may progress to become ill and potentially transmit the bacterium. In 2021, nearly 10.6 million people developed TB disease and 1.6 million died. There is an urgent need for accelerated development of new TB-focused interventions, in particular, improved TB vaccines. However, progress in developing highly effective TB vaccines has been slow and is chronically under-resourced. The mRNA vaccine platform may offer an opportunity to accelerate development of new TB vaccines.
In April 2023, the World Health Organization convened global experts to discuss the feasibility and potential value of mRNA-based vaccines for TB. Here we report on meeting deliberations related to the current TB vaccine pipeline and potential novel antigens, the status of efforts to identify correlates of protection, potential clinical development strategies and considerations for community acceptance of new TB vaccines based on this relatively new platform. The role of industry collaborations, ethics, social science, and responsibility to the global community regarding transparency and manufacturing capacity building were discussed through expert presentations and panel sessions. The overall conclusion of the meeting is that mRNA-based vaccines constitute a potentially powerful new tool for reducing the global burden of TB. |
