Transcript MPTs for Repo Health

Multipurpose Prevention Technologies (MPTs)
for Sexual & Reproductive Health
Session Objectives
This session is designed to help you:
 Define multipurpose prevention technologies (MPTs)
 Describe 3 benefits of MPTs for women
 Describe 2 existing MPTs in use globally
 Describe at least 3 delivery systems in development
 Describe 2 major challenges for MPTs development
 Describe the general MPTs development timeline
Multipurpose Prevention Technologies



Prevent at least 2 of the
following: unintended pregnancy,
STIs, HIV/AIDS
Should be safe & easily
available
Are designed with key input
from women for their specific
needs & preferences
Global need, regional priorities
Case Study #1: HIV in Women
• Age 33, married
• Already has 6 children
• Husband spends a significant
amount of time out of the village
and she accepts he is unfaithful
• Husband will not wear a condom
Every 60 seconds a young woman is
infected with HIV.
Global Need…
 Each year 1.7 million people die from AIDS
and 2.5 million become infected.
 1 million people contract a sexually
transmitted infection every day.
 222 million women have an unmet need
for modern contraception.
 Each day, close to 800 women in
developing countries die from complications
related to pregnancy and childbirth.
Case Study #2: Unintended Pregnancy
• Age 30, married
• Has delivered 2 children in 3
years
• Husband wants more children
• Sister died birthing her 5th baby in
7 years
222 million women have an unmet need for
modern contraception.
In the United States
 Nearly half of all pregnancies
among American women are
unintended.
 STIs are the most commonly
reported communicable diseases
in the US.
 There are18.9 million new cases
of STIs each year in the US.
14
Case Study #3: STIs
• Age 27
• Not in a committed relationship
• Currently taking oral
contraception
• Doesn’t always use a condom
1 million people contract a sexually transmitted
infection everyday.
MPTs: Historical Precedents
H2O + flouride
The pill + iron
Grains + folic acid
Currently Available MPTs
Male Condom
Female Condom
ADVANTAGES:
Available now
DISADVANTAGE: Use rates are low, difficult to negotiate
Complex Factors = Many Possibilities

Why do women need MPTs?



Healthy timing & spacing of intended pregnancies

Natural Products

Proteins/Peptides

Non-Hormonal
Contraceptives
Single & Multipurpose Vaccines



Today: Single purpose vaccines
(HPV & HBV)
20 years: Multivalent vaccines
(HSV, HIV, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia,
Trichomonas, other STIs)
Contraceptive vaccines are not
likely

The time for MPTs is now
What you can do?
 SHARE – Spread the news about life saving MPTs with your
colleagues and networks.
 COLLABORATE – If you work in a related field, join the IMPT
and move research, policy, funding and education efforts forward
to save lives.
 CONTRIBUTE – Your financial and in-kind support can accelerate
MPT education, research and introduction.
 TELL YOUR STORY- Make the case for MPTs with your stories,
experiences and anecdotes by emailing [email protected].
