Nearly 1.3 million people die every year from antibiotic resistance. We know that the overuse and misuse of antibiotics in humans and animals contribute to this problem, but so does lack of access to antibiotics.
As part of its efforts to counter antibiotic resistance, the Global Antibiotic Research and Development Partnership (GARDP) is working to find innovative solutions to rapidly expand access to antibiotics for appropriate use. The cefiderocol access project—which involves an innovative license agreement between Shionogi and GARDP, and a collaboration agreement between Shionogi, GARDP, and the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI)—has been called a “pioneering model for access through partnership” and a “first-in-kind approach” (see report, p. 23).
This webinar presented the cefiderocol access project and addressed issues around antibiotic access more broadly.
This live webinar including interactive Q&A session was broadcast on 07 July 2022, 14:00-15:00 CEST.
