Overview

Literature review highlights emerging vaccine platforms and novel antimicrobials against drug-resistant tuberculosis, suggesting multi-target strategies are critical to overcome treatment barriers.

Key Points

  • To review the current state of tuberculosis vaccine development and therapeutic interventions while identifying critical hurdles and prospective strategies to combat drug resistance.
  • Synthesized contemporary literature on tuberculosis vaccine pipelines, focusing on antigen identification, clinical trials, multi-antigen constructs, and mRNA platforms.
  • Evaluated current and emerging therapeutics for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, including bedaquiline, delamanid, and host-directed therapies.
  • Identified critical barriers to progress, such as bacterial antigen diversity, variable vaccine performance across populations, prolonged treatment regimens, and diagnostic deficiencies.
  • Highlighted the necessity of future combinatorial approaches, personalized treatment protocols, and antimicrobials targeting novel biological pathways to effectively control drug-resistant strains.
