2 A financial commitment by donors to subsidise vaccine purchase at a set price, if & when:  they are developed  meet minimum specified criteria  demanded by GAVI-eligible countries What is an AMC? An AMC is a pull funding mechanism, additional to current package of solutions, e.g. push funding, support for purchase of current products, system strengthening. 2 Source: GAVI

3 Price Quantity (& time) 91011 AMC Funds AMC price Low tail price The basic concept The AMC is designed to get life-saving vaccines to developing countries faster and at a sustainable price 15~20 yrs Guaranteed first stage price (AMC price) In return, firms obliged to sell at lower long run price (tail price) 3

4 1.Accelerate and influence vaccine development 2.Ensure availability 3.Enhance uptake Challenges to introduction of vaccines in developing countries: Challenges to introduction of vaccines in developing countries:  Vaccine formulations and presentation for developing countries  Vaccines may not be available in sufficient quantity at the time of demand  Sustainable, affordable pricing AMC Objectives: Which challenges are we targeting? 4

5 The AMC incentivises:  COUNTRIES – Guarantee of future financing before funds needed to purchase doses; predictability of long term tail price  INDUSTRY – Assurances of future price as incentive for more timely investment by industry; new “market” can bring in additional firms How does an AMC help? The AMC only provides funds if vaccines are developed and are requested by developing countries 5

9 Disease considered: HIV, HPV, Malaria, Rotavirus, Tuberculosis, Pneumococcus Disease Expert Group Decision: Pneumococcus Membership Composed of a range of experts in public health, developing country health systems, legal affairs and immunization Chair: Dr. Ntaba, former Minister of Health, Malawi Mission: Recommend most suitable disease for pilot AMC Timeline: Paris, February 2006Membership Composed of a range of experts in public health, developing country health systems, legal affairs and immunization Chair: Dr. Ntaba, former Minister of Health, Malawi Mission: Recommend most suitable disease for pilot AMC Timeline: Paris, February 2006 9

10 Why pneumococcal diseases?  There is a high disease burden: Potential to prevent 5.8 million deaths by 2030  Quick measure of effectiveness of AMC concept: o Science and technology for effective pneumococcal vaccine are well understood o There is robust pipeline that includes several efficacious vaccines for target countries  Importance of accelerating the development, capacity scale-up and reducing manufacturing costs  Cost-effective intervention: Pneumo vaccines are likely to fit into existing delivery systems; concerns about growing antibiotic resistance Back 10

11 AttributeMinimally Acceptable Profile Vaccines sereotypes Must cover at least 60% of invasive disease isolates in target region Must include 1,5,14 ImmunogenicityIn accordance with WHO criteria: non inferiority to a licensed pneumo vaccine Target populationPrevent disease among children < 5, in particular < 2 Safety, reactogenicitySimilar to currently licensed vaccine Dosage and schedule Compatible with national infant immunization programmes and no more than 3 doses in first year of life InterferenceNo significant interaction or interference with currently administered vaccines Routes of administrationIntramuscolar or subcutaneous Product presentationMono-dose or low multi-dose Product FormulationLiquid formulation Storage and cold chainStable at 2-8 °C with shelf life of at least 24 months Packaging and labellingIn accordance with WHO recommendations Product registration and pre-qualification WHO pre-qualified Post marketing surveillanceIn accordance with national regulatory authorities and WHO prequalification requirements Back Target Product Profile 11

13 Economic Expert Group (EEG): Overview of findings Economic Expert Group (EEG): Overview of findings 1. 13 SPECIAL NATURE OF PNEUMO Key issue is to incentivize manufacturing capacity  Demand risk  A lucrative market exists in high- and middle-income countries  There is relatively little competition likely at least in early years

14 2. Modify the basic AMC structure to increase efficiency and efficacy of AMC. In particular, need to ensure building of sufficient capacity to meet GAVI demand Doses (Millions) Updated, December 2007. Source: Pneumo ADIP Strategic demand forecast for GAVI countries – Accelerated Introduction Plan – Vaccine Demand Routine Immunizations 14

15 Companies should commit to supply portion of forecast developing country demand. In return, companies would be apportioned access to share of AMC’s $1.5bn resources. For example, if a company guarantees to supply 30% of forecast demand, then 30% of available AMC funds would be allocated to subsidise purchase of its vaccine. After these funds are used up, the company would be obligated to supply a proportional amount vaccines at AMC tail price. How to modify the AMC A. Supply commitments How to modify the AMC A. Supply commitments 15

16  If demand substantially less than anticipated, frontloading reduces firms’ financial exposure.  Firms value earlier revenues.  Frontloading would not increase overall amount of AMC subsidy that any one company receives. It only means that each company receives its portion of an AMC faster – but would also transition faster to supplying at low tail price. Framework DesignFrontloading 1 Tail Price The Donor Committee agreed to mitigate industry’s risk with frontloading of price. B. Mitigate risk by frontloading price 16

17 The AMC funds will most likely be divided and allocated within sequential offers. The first offer would be available from start of the AMC and accessible for all companies that produce vaccines in the early years. The remaining funds would be made available under future offers, during later years of the AMC period. WHY?  Uncertainty about demand will be resolved through first round of tender/delivery  Permits market to be split among additional entrants (potentially including emerging)  Increases responsiveness to country choice C. Sequential tendering 17

18 Price Quantity (& time) 14 The AMC ensures the long term price is sustainable in the long term AMC price Low tail price D. Ensure there is low and hard cap on tail price AMC Funds 18

19  Correct formulation and presentation of vaccines will be developed  They will become available faster and in the right quantities to cover demand  The price for developing countries will be known years before procurement starts  Availability of support funding is known years in advance  GAVI countries are empowered to chose the vaccine they want What does it mean for GAVI-eligible countries? What does it mean for GAVI-eligible countries? 19

20 We believe the AMC can be an effective ‘incentive mechanism to addressing the linkage between the cost of research and development and the price of vaccines’ World Health Assembly Resolution 60.30 20
