Control and Prevention of MDR-TB in the Greater Mekong Sub-regionCAP-TB PROJECT
Strengthening the health system through basic building blocks for TB control
Integration with the health system for TB control and prevention
Implementing innovative strategies with long-term sustainability
CAP-TB Strategy for FY14 • Evaluate implementation to date (FY12-FY13) • Identify successful strategies to continue and potentially scale up • Increased case detection and treatment success as “downstream” indicators of impact • Review current literature for recent evidence on potential innovations, etc., that can be piloted through the project
WHO analysis of 30 countries to determine progress toward universal access to MDR-TB care by 2015 Lancet Infectious Disease Vol 13, No 7, July 2013

Major Findings • 6 of 30 countries will reach goal for universal MDR-TB access by 2015. • 19 of 30 countries (including Myanmar, China, Thailand) need significant help to reach 2015 goal. • Challenges: Lab capacity; “treatment gap” between detection and enrollment; poor treatment outcomes in some settings. Lancet Infectious Disease Vol 13, No 7, July 2013
Recent literature emphasizes the importance of MDR-TB decentralization Lancet Infectious Disease Vol 13, No 7, July 2013
Thailand • Support BTB to develop infrastructure for national MDR-TB decentralization network • Rayong as pilot model for provincial-level decentralization • Continue Rayong Hospital activities: call center, MDR-TB case conferences, multi-disciplinary teams for MDR-TB care • Active case finding (DM, PLHIV clinics) and community support: assess donor funding and existing support
Building a provincial model for TB/MDR-TB decentralization in Rayong: Strengthening provincial, district, sub-district, and community levels of TB network
Thailand • Support BTB to develop infrastructure for national MDR-TB decentralization network • Rayong as pilot model for provincial-level decentralization • Continue Rayong Hospital activities: call center, MDR-TB case conferences, multi-disciplinary teams for MDR-TB care • Active case finding (DM, PLHIV clinics) and community support: assess GFATM funding and existing capacity
Myanmar: Integration with the TB network to strengthen TB control
Myanmar • Continue with patient treatment support • Identify risk groups for piloting innovative methods to improve case detection/treatment success • Childhood TB • Other risk groups: DM, PLHIV, etc. • Organizational Capacity Development
Engage community volunteers (in addition to health care workers) • Provide DOT throughout treatment • Limit cohort size: decentralization • Provide patient education • Provide package of adherence interventions • Provide standardized regimen (not individualized)
Myanmar: Identifying TB/MDR-TB risk groups to increase detection, enrollment, and treatment success
Myanmar • Continue with patient treatment support • Identify risk groups to improve case detection and treatment success • PLHIV, geographic areas (border and remote) with high treatment interruption/default rates, etc. • Organizational Capacity Development • Research: health financing, gender, 9 month “short regimen”
China: Implementing innovative strategies with long-term sustainability
Reported pulmonary TB incidence of Yunnan compared with national average (1997-2012) Reported incidence (1/100,000) National average Yunnan The reported TB incidence has remained relatively stable since 2006 in Yunnan, compared to a decline in the national incidence.
China • Refine strategy for case-finding interventions to scale up: • Analyze data from FY13 to identify most effective strategies • DM/TB, private clinics/pharmacies, QQ groups, PLHIV, community engagement (Women’s Federation) • Engagement of private sector: #3 Hospital of Kunming • Potentially for FY15, consider piloting CAP-TB model in Zhao Tong prefecture: “chronic TB outbreak” • Would enable Yunnan to have both an urban and rural model for TB/MDR-TB control

FY14 – FY16 Strategic Planning • Continue integrated “Health System Strengthening” • model for service delivery • Implement innovation: • Focus on risk groups for TB/MDR-TB • PLHIV, DM/TB, Migrant/mobile population • Workplace interventions for those with risk for occupational lung disease (miners and those with pulmonary silicosis) • Childhood TB, smokers, closed/congregate settings • QQ (China Facebook/Twitter): social media, “mHealth”

FY14 – FY16 Strategic Planning • Research • Health financing/cost-effectiveness • TB gender disparity • 9 month “short regimen” for MDR-TB • Identify strategies for sustainability • Counterpart funding from national and provincial government (China, Thailand) • Capacity building of Myanmar IAs to prepare for future funding from international donors (USAID, GFATM, etc)

WHO Criteria for 9-Month Regimen • Approval by a national ethics review committee • Treatment delivered under operational research conditions following international standards to assess the safety and effectiveness of regimen • Programmatic management of drug-resistant TB and the research project are monitored by an independent monitoring board set up by, and reporting to, WHO http://www.who.int/tb/challenges/mdr/short_regimen_use/en/index.html
9 month MDR-TB Regimen • Funding • China: national/provincial governments • CAP-TB/IUATLD: primarily technical support • Drug supply • Domestic versus other • Patient follow-up • Resources (human and financial) • Site-training • clinical monitoring, DOT
