Summary and discussion
Ecosystem: Immunization Landscape
Last decade, great advances in developing, introducing and improving
access to vaccines.
Annual number of deaths among children under five years of age fell
from an estimated 9.6 million in 2000 to 5.9 million in 2014, despite an
increase in number of children born each year.
Number of deaths in vaccine preventable diseases such as
diphtheria, pertussis, measles, neonatal tetanus and poliomyelitis
dropped from 0.9 million in 2000 to 0.4 million in Year 2010.
Newer vaccines, including pneumococcal conjugate vaccines and
vaccines against rotavirus and HPV, are currently being rolled out
globally.
Through global innovative international collaboration, an affordable
conjugate vaccine against Nesseria meningitidis serogroup A was
developed and is now in use in African Meningitis belt.
Global Action Vaccine Plan 2010-2020, WHO 2013
• The world has achieved
tremendous progress in
reducing child mortality
• Promisingly, progress has
accelerated in recent years,
especially in some of the
most challenging contexts
• However, progress is not
enough to meet the MDG 4
target of a two-third reduction
in the under-five mortality rate
between 1990 and 2015
• Most under-five deaths are
still caused by diseases that
are readily preventable or
treatable with proven, cost-
effective interventions
Most under-five deaths are still caused by diseases that are preventable or treatable

Global Vaccine supply
• Comprise 25 leading international companies.
• Majority of revenue stake owned by Big 5 Pharma.
• Represents research-based pharmaceutical and biotech companies.
• Generates 80-85 % of total revenue in global vaccine market.
• Contributes 12-15 % in volumes to global vaccine requirement.
• Formed in Year 2000.
• January 2016: 44 members in 16
countries; Latin America, Middle East,
Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region.
• supplies over 40 different types of
vaccines, totalling around 200 products.
From those nearly 40 are prequalified by
WHO.
• Year 2013, Emerging vaccine
manufacturers catered to 50 % of
volumes and 50 % by value of UNICEF
shares.
• Largely kept prices of traditional
vaccines affordable in-spite of declining
interest of Big Pharma in EPI vaccines.

Developing countries: Vaccine Industry
Supplies vaccines to 85 % of population: However shares less than
20% of global market in value
Increase in production capacities and potential to undertake or
partner for newer vaccines development
Business models based on access to emerging economies and
markets, UN market and Private sector in Low and Middle income
countries
Growth drivers: Large population, Unmet vaccination needs and low vaccination rates, Increasing governments focus on prevention/childhood rates
Future growth Expectations: Combination vaccines, -Influenza, -Traveller vaccines, Neglected Tropical diseases, pneumococcal and rotavirus, HPV vaccines; Malaria, Dengue Vaccine.

countries, from polio and measles to tetanus, BCG and yellow fever vaccines,
at a value of $1.48 billion.
Emergence of DCVMs
UNICEF publication, 2014; SAGE meeting April 2016
Year 2011 to 2015, increased supply of Pentavalent Vaccine resulted in increase in
the coverage in 73 GAVI eligible countries to 81% in 2014
Rapid growth in Emerging Economy
producers (DCVMs).
From Year 2008 to Year 2015: GAVI funded vaccines from DCVMN was above 60 %.

DCVMN and Global Threats
DCVMN and Global Pandemic threats
WHO Global Action Plan for Pandemic Influenza (GAP).
-This represent an leading
example wherein pandemic
threats led to capacity building.
-New manufacturers have been
established in developing
countries, which brings hopes to
more adequate production
capacity and equitable access in
case of a future pandemic.
- By 2015, production capacity
of more than 1 billion doses is
expected by DC manufacturers.

Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus
Elimination from South East Asia
Year 2016: WHO South-East Asia Region has
achieved a major public health feat – the Region has
eliminated maternal and neonatal tetanus (MNT) with
all districts across the 11 countries having reduced cases
to less than one per 1000 live births.
DCVMN is major supplier to UN agencies for
tetanus toxoids.
Poliomyelitis (Polio)
Launch of Global Polio Eradication Initiative has led to 99% drop in cases since 1988
3 countries remain polio-endemic: Afghanistan, Nigeria, Pakistan (vs 125 in 1988)
Polio Eradication and Endgame Strategic Plan 2013–2018 – aims to eradicate disease by 2018
One of major challenge in end game strategy will be vaccine supplies.
Supply of IPV and DCVM Existing price from developed country vaccine manufacturer (Big
Pharma): 4.50 Euros/dose.
EVM* Price: 2.50 Euros/dose till year 2013.
Year 2013 DCVM price: 1.25 Euro/dose in single dose container.
0.90 Euro/dose in multidose container for immediate use. Future
pricing may reduce to 0.60 Euros/dose in multidose vial.
Year 2014: 10 dose vial cost EUR 0.75 per dose from Big Pharma.

Vaccine Pricing and Affordability
Year 1974: EPI program was launched.
Year 1999: Total cost of full course of EPI vaccine averaged USD
1.37
Year 2000: Adding two priority vaccines-Hepatitis B and Hib to EPI
vaccines increased the cost to USD10.
Year 2011: The expansion of EPI Program have raised the price of
purchasing the full course of vaccine in GAVI country to 38.80 USD.
(Price does not include programmatic or cost associated with vaccine
wastage).
Price of vaccine became a significant issue for immunization
stakeholders in Year 2011, when GAVI faced a US $ 3.7 billion
financial shortfall for its 2011-2015 programme implementation.
In Past 5 Years: WHO is recommending high unit cost products such
as pneumococcal conjugate vaccine and rotavirus vaccine for global
use in infants and HPV vaccines for adolescents.

Year 2000: PCV 7: CDC Purchase price was USD 44.25/dose.
Year 2009; PCV 13 CDC Purchase price was at 71.04 USD per dose.
Following deliberation in Year 2007, access to PCV 7 and 13 was supported by AMC with initial target price of USD 2.00 per dose. Finally the price was locked in with tail price of 3.50 USD/dose.
No competition from low cost producers as on date. However, some DCVMN members are expected to enter this segment of vaccines by Year 2016.

Year 2006: USD 15.00 for full course; PAHO supplies
Year 2011: Big Pharma manufacturers reduced the
price in range of 5.00 to 10.00 USD per course
following sales of 30 million doses.
One of DCVMN member, launched the rotavirus
vaccines in Year 2015, at USD 1.00 per dose.

Summary
DCVM have moved from dependency to self sufficiency and has finally emerged as global suppliers for affordable vaccines.
DCVM look forward to supplies and markets in developed world:- Will have to overcome challenges and would need partnerships/collaborations with scientific community and Big Pharma to address issues of access, IP.
-Support from international agencies/foundations in terms of funding and advocacy.
The Facts
1 in 5 children do not have access to
life-saving immunizations
Vaccines
prevent
2 to 3
million deaths
annually
around
the world$20 can fully
vaccinate a
child against
pneumonia,
diarrhea, polio
and measles
Over 22 million infants remain
unimmunized in
the world each
year
Discussion
Do we have sufficient funding provisions for sustaining
decade of vaccine targets and objectives
For how long can we keep vaccine affordable in lieu of
increasing product complexities, regulatory
expectations, Intellectual property , product
development costs, inflation, challenges in advocacy
and lack of political will.
Can partnerships, collaborations, product development
partnerships help us ?
Thank You
We have to choose between a global market driven only by calculations of short-term profit,
Or one which has a human face
