Thoracic & gastrointestinal oncology
Diagnosis pages for cancers where staging, pathology, imaging and treatment history must be reviewed together.
A professional oncology information center for selected cancer diagnoses, with condition-specific file requirements, clinical review criteria and physician-led coordination before any travel or treatment decision.

Organized by diagnosis type, so every patient file starts with the right medical records, specialist context and coordination path.
Diagnosis pages for cancers where staging, pathology, imaging and treatment history must be reviewed together.
Structured coordination for pathology subtype, receptor status, stage, prior therapy and current disease status.
Evaluation pages focused on organ function, pathology, metastatic context and previous systemic treatment.
Pages for complex cases where functional status, lesion documentation and previous local treatments are essential.
The list below is not a treatment recommendation; it summarises which product has been studied in which area.
Cuba has invested in biotechnology for many years and has developed several products used in oncology. In non-small cell lung cancer, CIMAvax-EGF and Vaxira (racotumomab) have been studied as therapeutic vaccines; nimotuzumab (CIMAher), an EGFR-directed monoclonal antibody, has been studied in head and neck, oesophageal, brain, pancreatic and cervical tumours; and HeberFERON, combining alpha and gamma interferon, has been studied in skin tumours.
What these products share is that they report encouraging results in specific indications and are licensed in Cuba within their own approved indications. Many of the published trials were conducted in defined patient groups. The right question for every patient is therefore: for my diagnosis, stage and molecular profile, what evidence supports this option?
Clarity is also needed about products with weak evidence. Vidatox, derived from blue scorpion venom and classified as homeopathic, has no reliable clinical evidence of efficacy in cancer treatment and should not be used in place of standard therapy. Equally, no supportive product replaces proven oncological treatment.
Surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy are assessed first; Cuba-related options are considered after that assessment.
Markers such as EGFR, ALK, HER2 and PD-L1 directly determine which treatment can work and must be present in the file.
For every option proposed, ask in writing which study, in which patient group, showed which outcome.
The data below are taken from the product summary approved by CECMED, the Cuban medicines regulator. They describe the product as licensed in Cuba and are not a treatment recommendation.
Approval in Cuba does not mean approval in your country, and it does not mean the product is suitable for you. Eligibility is decided by the physician who reviews your complete file.
A coordinator will organize the information and guide the next step according to specialist review.
