Access to Medicine Foundation

NOW ONLINE: Our new report analyses five innovative, late-stage R&D projects currently in the antimicrobial pipeline. Taken together, these projects could save at least 160,000 lives each year by providing much-needed medicines to treat drug-resistant gonorrhoea, urinary tract infections, intra-abdominal infections, respiratory infections and invasive fungal infections. To achieve this, it is vital to ensure that comprehensive access and stewardship plans are put in place to ensure these newly developed drugs reach the patients who need them most – and stay effective for as long as possible.

By engaging in non-exclusive voluntary licensing, they can improve and speed up the availability of medicines in low- and middle-income countries #LMICs, while building manufacturing capacity that can be used for the future production of medicines.

📣 The deadline to sign the Investor Action on Antimicrobial Resistance (IAAMR) public statement has been extended until 31 December 2024! Following investor demand, IAAMR has chosen to extend the deadline for signing on to its public statement, which calls on world leaders and policymakers to reinvigorate efforts to combat #AntimicrobialResistance (AMR). IAAMR, alongside its investor partners, emphasises that #AMR presents a systemic risk to human health, economic stability and global financial markets.

With the second High-Level Meeting on AMR approaching in September 2024, it is crucial that policymakers take urgent steps to coordinate action and mitigate risk. Investors, take action now!
