1 7 th Symposium on ew Developments in 7 th Global Meeting, Tuberculosis Drug Development: PK/PD Challenges Bernd Meibohm, PhD, FCP Professor & Associate Dean for Graduate Programs and Research College of Pharmacy The University of Tennessee Health Science Center Memphis, T, U.S.A. TB-Epidemiology 2 billion people are infected with latent TB in people infected with TB bacilli will become sick with active TB in their lifetime early 2 million deaths are caused by TB annually (5000 people/day) ~ million new cases/year TB is a leading killer among HIV- infected people with weakened immune systems Resistant TB 500,000 cases of MDR-TB in all 9 WH countries 55 countries: XDR-TB Global Tuberculosis Control: epidemiology, strategy, financing: WH report 2009 Bernd Meibohm, PhD, FCP, University of Tennessee
