We have also implemented the TB PRACTECAL clinical trial. This is the first-ever multi-country, randomized, controlled clinical trial, aiming to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of a six-month, all oral treatment regimen for drug-resistant TB. We are now working with the World Health Organization to promote the new regimen as the international standard of care for drug-resistant TB patients.
In the capital, Tashkent, we provide support for the diagnosis and treatment of people living with HIV and co-infections. In 2021, we also launched a mobile laboratory to support the diagnosis of HIV and co-infections among vulnerable people.
