Our Center receives the ¨Premio del Barrio¨ from the hands of its National Coordinator Gerardo Hernández Cordelo. A recognition based on the CIM's contribution to Cuban health in its more than 25 years of scientific and technological work.
<br />At the same time, the participation of workers from the Center in the confrontation with COVID19, integrating the Henry Reeve Brigades, was recognized.
<br />Support for the vaccination of adults and pediatrics in the community was also recognized, in the CIM certified vaccinations and the promotion of community projects with primary schools for health promotion and care for vulnerable neighborhoods such as La Cantera.
Cuba has 2 therapeutic vaccines for advanced lung cancer:
CIMAvax EGF ® and VAXIRA ® (racotumomab). Both therapeutic vaccines have sanitary registration in the indication of stage III and IV advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), after the first line of chemotherapy. The main clinical benefit of these vaccines has been shown to be increased survival and improved quality of life, as well as a broad safety profile.
How to acquire the vaccines?
Foreigners should contact the Cuban Medical Services who will evaluate each case as part of a comprehensive patient care program, with commercial value.
