Takeda joins WIPO Re:Search for R&D on neglected tropical diseases, malaria and TB
Japan’s largest drugmaker Takeda Pharmaceutical (TYO: 4502) says it is participating in WIPO Re:Search, a consortium to accelerate R&D of new drugs, vaccines, and diagnostics for neglected tropical diseases, malaria and tuberculosis (TB).
The aim of WIPO Re:Search is to advance product development through greater collaboration while making concrete contributions to strengthen the foundations of healthcare in developing countries.
"Takeda's participation in the consortium demonstrates our commitment to supporting better access to medicines for people around the world, including those in emerging markets and developing counties," said Isabel Torres, director, Access to Medicines, Takeda, adding: "We will continue our efforts to contribute to global health through WIPO Re:Search, together with a number of other Access to Medicines programs such as the Global Health Innovative Technology Fund."
