The newly inaugurated PeerLINC Knowledge Hub in Manila is poised to harness local expertise and experience to catalyze the adoption of advanced and more efficacious cures for tuberculosis on a global scale. Central to its mission is the promotion of new treatments that have demonstrated remarkable success in combating drug-resistant TB, as evidenced by an impressive 98% cure rate among Filipino participants.
Dr. Mamel Quelapio, a member of TDF’s Board of Trustees and Programmatic Implementation Lead at PeerLINC, underscores the importance of sharing knowledge and experiences with the BPaL/M regimens. She highlights the pivotal role played by the DOH in partnership with TDF and TB Alliance in driving improved treatment outcomes for patients.
TB Alliance’s LIFT-TB initiative has played an important role in accelerating the adoption of the BPaL/M regimens in several countries, including the Philippines, where it has reported a remarkable 98% cure rate. Despite the progress made, some countries have been slower in implementing these regimens. PeerLINC aims to address this gap by drawing upon the expertise and experiences of early implementers to assist other countries in their adoption efforts.
