Project<br />

WHO Toolkit for research<br />

and development of paediatric<br />

antiretroviral drugs and<br />

formulations<br />

In 2018, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Training Centre<br />

developed and launched the online<br />

version of the WHO toolkit for research and<br />

development of paediatric antiretroviral drugs<br />

and formulations. Research and development<br />

of antiretroviral drugs and formulations for<br />

children has traditionally lagged behind that of<br />

adult versions of the drugs. <strong>The</strong> toolkit consists<br />

of ten modules and provides online access for<br />

drug manufacturers, regulatory authorities,<br />

and more widely by the global research<br />

community, to help facilitate and accelerate the<br />

development of HIV drugs for children.<br />
