Abstract:

A new era of novel vaccine and drug development against tuberculosis disease arrived with the failed clinical trial of MVA85A published in 2013. The breakthrough of systematic immunology of tuberculosis, which is the most critical challenge in developing novel technologies and products to end tuberculosis, is leading the reconstruction of the feature and position of strength of all countries in the ongoing struggle of global tuberculosis control.
