Accelerated Development of Vaccine benefit-risk Collaboration in Europe (ADVANCE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2018,
Aim: The ADVANCE vision is focused on Timely and Best Evidence on Vaccine Effects. Our mission is to establish a best practice framework to rapidly provide robust data on vaccine benefits and risks to support accelerated decision-making.Approach: To achieve this vision through a public-private partnership, ADVANCE partners 1. establish common grounds and rules for collaboration between public and ...

Preserving old antibiotics for the future : assessment of clinical efficacy by a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic approach to optimize effectiveness and reduce resistance for off-patent antibiotics (AIDA)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2017,
The AIDA project aims to answer the question of clinical effectiveness and optimal dosing of 5 off-patent antibiotics for infections caused by multiple drug resistant (MDR) bacteria in three randomized controlled clinical trials. In an era of increasing emergence of drug resistance (EDR) and lack of new antibiotics, old off- patent antibiotics are increasingly being prescribed to patients. However ...

Optimising the impact and cost-effectiveness of child health intervention programmes of vaccines and micronutrients in low-income countries (optimunise)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
International child health programmes in low-income countries are justified in term of their impact on child survival. However, the effect estimates are usually calculated from performance indicators and assumptions about efficacy based on small-scale target-specific studies. There is little follow-up of how the programmes are implemented in real life.This approach is clearly not sufficient. Recen ...

Child health intervention interactions in low-income countries (CHILIC)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
Vitamin A supplementation (VAS) and vaccines are the most powerful tools to reduce child mortality in low-income countries. However, we may not use these interventions optimally because we disregard that the interventions may have immunomodulatory effects which differ for boys and girls and which may interact with the effects of other interventions. I have proposed the hypothesis that VAS and vacc ...
