Lupin Pharmaceuticals has also established a strategic partnership with a non-profit making body, TB Alliance, that aims at discovering drugs against infectious diseases to fast-track the clinical development and commercialization of Telacebec (previously called Q203).
The drug has high potential of being used to cure various mycobacterial infections such as tuberculosis (TB), leprosy and buruli ulcer.
According to the contract, both companies will collaborate in offering high-level treatment to individuals affected by these paralyzing illnesses. Although TB Alliance will take the lead in the development of Telacebec, Lupin will contribute with its competencies in global production, regulatory, and supply chain management, in order to convey the drug to patients worldwide.

This partnership will help address the increasing problem of mycobacterial infections, specifically TB, one of the significant global social problems. Telacebec, with its innovative approach, is a hope to improve the treatment outcomes, particularly in those areas where the opportunities to access effective therapies are restricted.
This collaboration is a significant step in combating TB and other related illnesses since the two entities are determined to enhance the health of the world by working together and creating innovative treatments. The presence of Lupin will see Telacebec being made available internationally and thus provide more access to treatment to patients in need.
