MISSION REPORT
SUPPORTING THE TRANSITION OF PAEDIATRIC ANTI-TB MEDICINES
IN THE PHILIPPINES
Mission Team: Xiulei Zhang, WHO/HQ – HIS/EMP/PAU
Fabienne Jouberton, GDF/Stop TB Partnership
Date: 5-18 September 2015
Travel Request: TR897076
Background The Speeding Treatments to End Paediatric TB (STEP-TB) is a three-year project developed
by the TB Alliance and WHO (the Department of Essential Medicines and Health Products
and Global TB Programmes). It aims to accelerate the development and uptake of properly
formulated and affordable high quality paediatric fixed-dose combinations (FDCs).
Developed products are FDC1: Rifampicin 75 mg + Isoniazid 50 mg + Pyrazinamide 150mg;
and FDC2: Rifampicin 75mg + Isoniazid 50 mg. FDCs are dispersible and are available in
mango, strawberry or raspberry flavours. They have been produced by one manufacturer
since mid-2015.
The revised dosing was published by WHO in 2010 Rapid Advice and re-iterated in the
second edition of the Guideline for National Tuberculosis Programmes on the Management of
Tuberculosis in Children published in early 2014. Now WHO and TB Alliance are supporting
countries to accelerate national assessments and incorporation of childhood TB in the
National Tuberculosis Programmes (NTP).
Terms of Reference of the Mission The objective of the mission was to support the Philippines to achieve smooth transition from
old paediatric TB medicines to new formulations. The specific objectives were:
I Briefing
To brief stakeholders including the Department of Health (DOH), the National
TB Programme, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Management Science
for Health (MSH) in country, and the Philippine Paediatrician Society on the
development of the new paediatric TB FDCs.
II Preparing for the phase-out of old formulations
i. To visit sites to gather information about medicine consumption and the Anti-
TB Drug Information Management System, where the NTP operates, and
public and private facilities where children are treated; and
ii. To discuss the phase-out framework for old medicines with stakeholders.
III Preparing for the phase-in of new formulations
i. To discuss and address the potential obstacles for introducing the new FDCs
into the country, including regulatory policies, procedures and timelines, and
possible registration with NMRA; and,
ii. To draft phase-in plan including quantification of the needs of new paediatric
FDCs, steps and timelines
IV Other issues
i. To identify technical support needed: future national TB training plans,
technical gaps, job aids/dosing guidance.
ii. To identify job aids /checklist needed for supply management and prescribers.
The Mission
1. Introduction
After the mission briefing, the Philippine NTP provided a report of its national TB control
framework and policies regarding to TB drug managements, which are summarized as
follows:
1.1) The National TB Control Programme (NTP) of the Philippines
The NTP is one of the public health programmes being managed and coordinated by the
Infectious Diseases for Prevention and Control Division (IDPCD) of the Disease Prevention
and Control Bureau (DPCB) of the Department of Health (DOH). The NTP works closely
with various offices of the DOH such as the Central Office Bids and Awards Committee
(COBAC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for drug and supplies management.
The 17 DOH Regional Offices (RO), through their Regional NTP teams, manage TB at the
regional level, while the provincial health and city health offices, through their provincial/city
teams, are responsible for TB control efforts in provinces and cities. TB diagnostic and
treatment services are provided by DOTS facilities which could either be the public health
facilities such as the rural health units, health centers, hospitals, school clinics, military
hospitals, and prison/jail clinics, or NTP-engaged private facilities such as private clinics,
private hospitals, drug stores and others. All DOTS Centers report to the NTP on case finding
and case management data.
1.2) Current Policies
The NTP shall ensure that drugs selected for use are in accordance with international
guidelines; are indicated in the national standard guidelines; registered with the Philippine
FDA; and included in the national formulary. Quantification and ordering shall be based on
distribution rates, projected case finding targets and provision of buffer stocks. Buffer stocks
should be maintained at:
1 quarter buffer at DOTS facilities
1 quarter buffer at PHO/CHO (District Level)
6 months buffer at CHD (City/Regional Level )
12 months buffer at national level
According to the NTP manager, the supply of anti-TB drugs in the Philippines have been
unreliable and irregular, so a 12 month buffer at a national level is indicated.
Medicines and supplies shall be stored under appropriate conditions and accounted for
through proper recording and reporting. Stock status should be reflected in the National
Online Stock Inventory Reporting System (NOSIRS).
DOTS centers can access the medicines for treatment of TB that meet following criteria: ①
Registration of medicines with FDA; ②Inclusion in the National Formulary; ③Inclusion in
the disease-centered standard treatment guideline.
1.3) Procurement and distribution
The procurement process for first line drugs (FLDs) for adults from the domestic market
includes NCDPC for forecasting & quantification, COBAC for purchase order/contract and
LMD for logistic management. The downloadable desktop management tool, QuanTB,
created by the Improved Access to Pharmaceuticals and Services (SIAPS) project, helps to
improve quantification at the central level. Distribution information management is paper-
based at the moment, and information including receipts, storage, and delivering shall be
complete, accurate, and analyzed in a timely way.
Since 2008, the NTP has been procuring paediatric anti-TB medicines from Concept
Pharmaceuticals, Ltd (based on India). Kit content for a complete treatment course (6
months) includes: 7 bottles Isoniazid (syrup, 200mg/5ml; 120 ml preparation in amber
bottle), 7 bottles Rifampicin (oral suspension, 200mg/5ml; 120 ml preparation in amber
bottle), 4 bottles Pyrazinamide (oral suspension, 250mg/5ml suspension, 120 ml preparation
in amber bottle), and Ethombutol (200 mg per tablet). Kit for prophylaxis treatment for
children includes five bottles Isoniazid (Syrup 200mg/5ml syrup).
2. Case finding of TB in children in the past and projection for the next years
According to the NTP, the TB recording and reporting system to date in the Philippines is
paper based and collected annually, and electronic- and Internet-based reporting systems will
be rolled out nationwide by the end of 2015. Before 2012, all forms of childhood TB were
part of regular reporting information. Unfortunately, since 2012, only smear positive TB has
been required to be reported. Accomplishment from 2010 to 2012 is showed as table 1.
Table 1. Accomplishment (2010-2012)
Year 2010 2011 2012
Reported TB in children 11,857 21,837 21,988
Total TB cases 174,535 206,088 216,929
% children 7 11 10
The WHO mission and the Philippine NTP discussed and agreed that as the Philippines was
increasing its efforts in paediatric TB case finding, 11% could be regarded as the appropriate
proportion of childhood TB among total TB cases, for the purpose of projecting childhood
TB notifications in following several years. Likewise, based on previous years’ trends of case
finding , it is assumed that TB of all forms increases by 6% annually.
Based on the above assumptions and 2014 cases finding data, estimated TB in children from
2015-2018 are as table 2.
Table 2. 2015-2018 Projected case notification (based on 2014 data)

A B=A×11%
2014 261,081 28,719
2015 6% 276,746 30,442
2016 6% 293,351 32,269
2017 6% 310,952 34,205
2018 6% 329,609 36,257
Although according to national guidelines all reported cases are required to be enrolled in the
treatment, no data of annual treatment achievements were collected by the NTP.
3. Stock on hand and pending order of paediatric TB medicines
3.1) At Central level
The mission visited central warehouses, including Quirino warehouse, which is the central
storage for DOH pharmaceuticals commodities, and the one that stores paediatric TB
medicines. The facility does not have certification, but when a delivery arrives one
pharmacist from FDA comes to perform post-shipment inspection and sampling for quality
control testing. Apart from space constraints, the drug organization, stock management,
storage condition and security measures are at an acceptable level.
Due to zero stock of paediatric TB medicines at the time of the mission, only bin cards,
delivery receipts and relevant documents were reviewed. Documents showed that paediatric
TB medicines have been procured from Concept Pharmaceuticals since 2008. The warehouse
has been out of stock since November 2014, and the 2014 order had not been delivered as of
September 18, 2015, despite its scheduled arrival at the central warehouse in July 2015.
There were stockouts in the central warehouses between annual orders in the past three
consecutive years: July 12-August 15 2013 (33 days), March 12-May 22, 2014 (70 days), and
November 3 2014 to September 5 2015 (the date of WHO mission) (over 10 months).
There is a history of backorders from Concept Pharmaceuticals in 2013 (PO 2012-10-441).
The time from date of notice to proceed to date of receipt of delivery was 6 months, which
exceeded the required the maximum of 120 calendar days.
3.2) At Peripheral level
The NTP did not have the number of the 17 Regional Offices with stockouts at the time of
mission. The NTP stated that there is a contingency plan to response to stockouts: in the event
of stockout at central warehouse, Regional Offices can procure drugs locally and distribute to
the NTP offices of lower levels, and subsequently ask for reimbursement from the Central
NTP Office. At the time of the visit, there were no statistics of stock on hand in the Regional
Offices, Provincial Offices, and DOTS facilities.
3.3) At DOTS facilities visited
Three DOTS facilities were visited, including the National Children’s Hospital and Bo.
Fugoso Health Center, which are public institutions and work under the regulations of the
NTP. They had both run out of drugs for childhood TB distributed from the NTP in May
2015. However, there were no stockouts in the two facilities, because the hospital and the
Regional Office had procured drugs from domestic markets before their supplies were
exhausted. INH, RFP, and PZA in syrups and Ethambutol in tablets are procured locally in
accordance with governmental procedures. Anti-TB drugs for children include 7 bottles
Isoniazid/Pyridoxine HCL (20mg/20mg per 5ml syrup), 7 bottles Rifampicin (200 mg/5 ml
suspension, 120mL), 4 bottles Pyrazinamide (250 mg/5 ml suspension, 120 mL), and
Ethombutol (200mg per tablet). During the visit, the stock on hand of various drugs in
National Children’s Hospital was enough to last for 3-6 months, while there were sufficient
drugs in Bo. Fugoso Health for 5-20 months. Their drug information management systems
are paper based and data is reported to their respective District Office on a monthly basis.
The Fr. Angelo Falardi Health Clinic (supported by Payatas Orione Foundation) is a non-
government organization whose personnel as well as medical supplies and medicines are
funded by a charity based in New York. No stockout had been reported, and drugs are
procured each month from the domestic market by the clinic, instead of being obtained from
the NTP. These drugs are provided to TB patients for free, and are the same as those provided
by the National Children’s Hospital.
TB doctors in the three facilities mentioned children’s complaints over the syrups’ flavours,
and that Ethambutol was difficult to swallow.
4. Progress for introducing the new FDCs
4.1) Registration with FDA
During the discussion with the Philippine FDA, it was noted that according to Philippine
policy (Guidelines for Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) Clearance and
Inspection for Foreign Drug Manufacturers), prior to registration, all importers of drug
products must obtain GMP clearance from FDA for each of their foreign drugs. So GMP
hereby is a requirement for product registration. The average processing time is 8-10 weeks,
in some extreme circumstances, the process could be done within one month.
Since 6 June 2015, MacLeod has been attempting to file a regulatory submission, but before
the Philippine authorities will be able to accept it, GMP clearances of its three manufacturing
sites need to be obtained. However, there is no clear timeline as to when GMP Clearance will
be scheduled, so dossiers have not yet been submitted to the Philippine FDA.
The Philippine FDA acknowledged that thus far, all drugs purchased through UN agencies
benefit from a waiver and can be imported without registration.
4.2) Inclusion into National Formulary
After a discussion with the NTP, the Formulary Executive Committee (FEC) stated that it is
only amenable to including the new FDCs on the formulary if it is in the WHO Model List of
Essential Medicines. However, the next generation of the WHO Model List is only expected
to be released in April 2017.
4.3) Inclusion in the standard treatment guideline
The TB-centered treatment guideline, the NTP Manual of Procedure 2013, is already in place,
and dosages per body weight are nearly same as that of the latest WHO guideline. Experts
from the Philippine Paediatricians Associations had expressed concerns over the difference of
minimal dosage of INH between the WHO guideline and the current Philippines, but finally
agreed on the dose and range of Isoniazid in WHO guideline 10 (7-15) (mg/kg body weight)
after obtaining relevant supporting documents.
The Philippine NTP has agreed that in due time it will issue a memo to include the new FDCs
into the selected list of drugs for treating TB in children.
4.4) Training and job aids
Training pertaining to the new FDCs is regarded as necessary, especially on the proper
administration of the drugs. However, technical assistance from WHO/GDF/TB Alliance on
the training is not deemed necessary by the NTP.
Job aids are necessary to help prescribers and pharmaceutical managers to remember the
proper dosage and administrative requirements. TB Alliance has been in contact with the
Philippine NTP with regards to this.
5. Phasing out of syrups and phasing in of FDCs
5.1) Phasing out: pending 2014 order and the forthcoming 2015 order
The medicines order in 2014 that was supposed to be delivered in July 2015, is rescheduled
for delivery in October 2015. The manufacturer Concept Pharmaceuticals claimed the
backorder was due to lack of raw materials. The ordered quantity was 35,000 kits that will
provide for 35,000 treatments. It is estimated that 32,269 children will be diagnosed with TB
in 2016, and accordingly about 32,269 kits will be consumed in 2016. When considering
package roundup, losses and damages, the 2014 order will be good for use in 2016.
The NTP intends to place the same order for syrups later this year as it did in 2014, of 35,000
kits. It plans to use its 2015 budget and order from Concept Pharmaceuticals . The 2015 order
is expected to be able to cover 2017 consumption. See annex 1 for details.
5.2) Phasing in: order with 2016 budget for FDCs
After discussion between the DOH and WHO mission, the Philippine NTP expressed an
interest in procuring FDCs through GDF with its 2016 budget, and the anticipated FDCs
procured will cover the 2018 treatment needs. As the 2015 order will be able to cover 2017
consumption, and six months of overlapping period for the two formulations is indispensable
for smooth transition, the ideal time for starting using FDCs at facility level is October 2017.
When considering the timeline of phasing in FDCs, time for producing, packing, shipping
and waiver application need to be factored in. The first batch of FDCs should arrive at the
central warehouse in the second quarter of 2017. After inspection by FDA facilities, FDCs
must be in stock no later than the last quarter of 2017. The proposed timeline from WHO on
the above-mentioned action items is illustrated in annex 2.
However, there is the possibility that MacLeod will complete the registration with FDA early
in 2016. In this case, the waiver will be uncalled for, and the DOH will procure FDCs directly
from the domestic market, rather than through GDF.
5.3) Quantification of needs of FDCs
The quantification is based on the following assumptions:
Treatment regimen is 2HRZE/4HR
Weight bands are used as illustrated in annex 3
75% of the children younger than 15 years old have body weight under 25 kg, and
their average body weight is 12-15 kg
For a child whose body weight is 12-15 kg, the treatment is of 3 tablets of HRZ in
intensive phase and 3 tablets of HR in continuous phase
Childhood TB (all forms) constitutes 11% of TB of all ages
Case finding increases annually by 6%
A 25% (3 month) buffer is taken into account
The FDCs to be procured with the 2016 budget will be used at facilities from Octo
2017 to the end of 2018, with 6 months of over lapping period (October 2017-
March 2018)
Based on the above assumptions, the recommended initial order for HRZ is 5,670,120 tablets,
and the order for HR is 11,340,240 tablets. Of course, appropriate round up will apply for the
final order according to packing sizes. For details, see annex 4.
Budget for FDCs: the budget of 2015 for TB in children is US$ 582,965 (for 35,000
treatments). The 2016 budget is US $845,873. It is too early to tell if the budget will be
sufficient or not, as the prices of FDCs are not available yet.
6. Recommendations to the Philippine DOH/NTP/FDA
6.1) Buffer stock
According to the NTP’s current policy, buffer stocks at facility level, district level, regional
level and national level altogether will last 24 months. This will lead to medicine expiries,
given most medicines’ 24-month shelf-life and several months of lead time. WHO
recommends that the NTP should maintain about a three month buffer stock at national level
and have a well-timed delivery schedule. In addition, the NTP should contract suppliers to
deliver on a quarterly schedule to ease the pressure on the physical space of central
warehouses.
6.2) Recording and reporting of childhood tuberculosis
The NTP does not collect the number of notified cases that receive treatment, so the
quantification of demands is based on the assumption that all notified cases are treated.This is
unrealistic in most cases. WHO recommends that treatment enrollment and treatment
outcomes are added to quarterly reports, which is crucial to collating demands, consumption
and forecasting.
6.3) Inclusion of FDCs into the national formulary
In order to encourage the swift inclusion of FDCs on the national formulary, the NTP should
consider providing alternative supporting documents to the Formulary Executive Committee,
such as WHO’s new Guidance for National Tuberculosis Programmes on the Management of
Tuberculosis in Children.
6.4) Ensure storage capacity
The NTP needs to have capacity beyond already overwhelmed warehouses for the
forthcoming 2014 order. In the long run, it is recommended suppliers be contracted to deliver
on quarterly basis. As the new FDCs are dispersible tablets,it is recommended that the NTP
has a close monitoring of the products’ storage conditions (temperature and humidity) along
the supply chain at the central and peripheral levels.
6.5) Facilitate of UNOPS registration and waiver application
The NTP and FDA should provide necessary assistance to UNOPS’ registration with FDA,
the signing of the memorandum of understanding with the DOH, and the waiver application
to FDA.
6.6) Transition timeline
The DOH is recommended to tentatively follow the timelines and activities in annex 2 to
ensure a smooth transition.
6.7) Post-marketing/pharmacovigilance
As introduction of FDCs may influence the form and frequency of adverse drug reactions,
WHO advocates active TB drug safety monitoring and management and that
pharmacovigilance remains very relevant.
7. Follow up for GDF/WHO/TB Alliance
7.1) Accelerate the FDCs pricing process
In order for the DOH to develop a practical procurement plan, GDF/WHO/TB Alliance’s
primary concern is to facilitate the pricing of FDCs at the earliest time.
7.2) Preparing for a waiver application
UNOPS, as a UN agency, is entitled to have a registration waiver, but in order to proceed, it
needs to be registered with the FDA which is presently not the case. After registration, GDF –
which is now part of UNOPS – shall be able to apply for a waiver and procure FDCs. Of
course, a memorandum of understanding needs to be signed between UNOPS and the DOH
in advance.
7.3) Facilitating the registration of Macleods
WHO has inspected the sites of Macleods where these paediatrics formulations are produced
and they have been declared GMP compliant. To expedite the waiver application, WHO shall
share the prequalification documents with FDA to support it to provide GMP clearance to
Macleods.
7.4) Updating the Philippines
WHO shall update the Philippines on the progress of pricing, drug availability, and other
information such as package size of the FDCs, to facilitate the order placing.
Annex 1. Phasing out of syrups and suspensions
1. Total ordered kits in 2014 that are expected to arrive in October 2015: 35 000
1) FDA tests and inspection will take about one month.
2) Medicines are expected to arrive at facilities in December to be used for treatment
from the beginning of 2016.
3) It is estimated that 32 269 children will be diagnosed with with TB in 2016, and
accordingly 32 269 kits will be consumed in 2016. When considering package
roundup, loss and damage, the 2014 order is good for use in 2016.
2. 2015 order will be placed by the year-end,products will be delivered by July 2016, and
the quantity is 35 000 kits
1) The ordered products for treatment childhood TB will still be syrups and
suspensions from the same manufacturer.
2) FDA tests and inspection will take about one month.
3) Medicines are expected to arrive at facilities in July 2016, which will ensure the
facilities have three months of buffer (October-December 2016).
4) It is estimated that there will be 34 205 TB in children in 2017, and, accordingly
34 205 kits will be consumed.
5) However, as FDCs are supposed to be introduced in the Philippines by the 2017,
with six month of overlapping period of two preparations, the old preparation can
hold up to first quarter of 2018.
6) In short, the 2015 order of 35 000 kits are good for treatment from the beginning of 2017 up to March 2018
3. The FDCs will be introduced to into the Philippines in 2017, starting to treat patients
from October 2017
