From page 193...
... There was significant thematic overlap in recommendation topics across reports, which can be categorized in five areas: • innovation in vaccine development and production technologies, • optimization of pandemic vaccine production processes, • regulatory harmonization, • stakeholder coordination, and • sustainable funding.
From page 194...
... In 2006, the World Health Organization's Global Action Plan for Influenza Vaccines (GAP) urged the development of more potent and effective vaccine candidates (WHO, 2006)
From page 195...
... , highlighting the importance of funding mechanisms in expanding and sustaining development efforts. Alternative recommendations to facilitate rapid availability of pandemic influenza vaccines have included the development of mock-up "pandemic-like" vaccines designed to protect against anticipated pandemic virus characteristics (WHO, 2004)
From page 196...
... . Another prominent recommendation to address the manufacturing capacity constraints for pandemic influenza vaccines has been to globally increase and sustain seasonal influenza vaccine programs.
From page 197...
... . Other recommendations included updating global vaccine manufacturing preparedness plans for switching from seasonal to pandemic vaccine manufacturing (WHO, 2019)
From page 198...
... . STAKEHOLDER COORDINATION Given the interdependence of vaccine development, production, regulation, and distribution, pandemic vaccine manufacturing has consistently faced challenges in timely scale-up.
From page 199...
... For most influenza vaccine technologies, this process begins with sharing the candidate vaccine viruses and reference reagents needed for vaccine development and production with vaccine manufacturers. These materials are critical as both egg-based and cell-based vaccine production require the candidate vaccine viruses to replicate and process with their respective technologies (PCAST, 2010)
From page 200...
... . Analysis of the H1N1 and Ebola responses made clear that investments in health infrastructure, including vaccine manufacturing capacity, have been inadequate despite formal commitments of national governments to do so under the 2005 International Health Regulations (Moon et al., 2015)
From page 201...
... . CONCLUSION The recommendations identified in this review highlight that pandemic vaccine manufacturing capacity is impacted by each phase of the pandemic
From page 202...
... In addressing pandemic manufacturing capacity, recommendations emphasize investment in research and development of more efficient and flexible production technologies, including the use of cell-based technologies and vaccine platforms that can more readily be mobilized for pandemic manufacturing. Recommendations addressing production capacity have evolved given recent experiences with outbreaks, shifting emphasis away from stockpiles as a mechanism for ensuring pandemic influenza vaccine supply to the development of stronger manufacturing capacity driven by established demand for seasonal influenza vaccines.
