Gilead Sciences
Gilead’s work to address neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) began over three decades ago when we launched our partnership with the World Health Organization (WHO) provide our therapy for the treatment of visceral leishmaniasis at a no-profit price in low- and middle-income countries where it is highly endemic. Moreover, in 2022 the WHO published guidelines that strongly recommend this medicine as part of the preferred regimen for the treatment of HIV-related cryptococcal meningitis. As a result, we expanded our global access program to include treatment of HIV-related cryptococcal meningitis as well.
