Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $140,222 to the Coalition for Global Hepatitis Elimination (CGHE) to support their work developing a research roadmap to simplify guidelines for hepatitis B treatments.
Current treatment algorithms for hepatitis B are complicated, and low-income settings in particular may benefit from simplified guidelines; research that clarifies whether simplified treatment still works well may broaden the availability of treatment.
This falls within Open Philanthropy’s focus area of scientific research, specifically within its interest in advancing human health and wellbeing.
