Outcomes and Timepoint

Section to complete information about primary and secondary outcomes including. It includes the metric or method of measurement used and, the time point for every outcome.

Primary outcome(s):

1. EGF concentration (The concentration of EGF in patients' blood will be determined in pg / mL). Time of measurement: At baseline, at 14 days (+3) after the end of the induction phase (4th dose of the vaccine) and at 14 days (+3) of the evaluation at the end of the treatment under study (8th dose of the vaccine). 2. Anti-EGF antibody titers (In each patient the antibody titres will be determined in response to short-term vaccination and it will be determined if it is ≥ 1: 4000). Time of measurment: At baseline, 14 days (+3) after the end of the induction phase (4th dose of the vaccine) and, 14 days (+3) of the evaluation at the end of the treatment under study (8th dose of the vaccine).

Key secondary outcomes:

1. Serum IL-6 concentration (pg / ml). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 2. Total bilirubin (mg / dL). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 3. Neutrophil / lymphocyte ratio (neutrophil / lymphocyte ratio). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 4. Platelet / lymphocyte ratio (platelet / lymphocyte ratio). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 5. Myeloid suppressor cell frequency (MDSC) (%). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 6. Absolute count and frequency of CD4 + T cells (total and %). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 7. Absolute count and frequency of CD8 + T cells (total and %). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 8. CD8 + CD28- T cell frequency (%). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 9. CD4 / CD8 Index (CD4 / CD8 Ratio). Measurement time: At baseline and, weeks 8 and 24. 10. Grade 3, 4 or 5 toxicity attributable to the therapeutic vaccine CIMAvax®-EGF (The occurrence of Adverse events intensity grade 3 (severe), 4 (severe threatening or disabling) or 5 (severe that causes death will be evaluated in each patient) that is attributable (definitive, very probable, probable, possible) to the therapeutic vaccine CIMAvax®-EGF). Measurement time: Weeks 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 14, 18, 22, 24 and 30. 11. Adverse events-AE (Occurrence of some AE (Yes, No), Type of AE (according to the CTC version 5), Duration of the EA (Time between the start and end dates of the AE), AE intensity (Light, Moderate, Severe, Serious that threatens or incapacitates, Serious that produces death according to CTC version 5.0), Causality of AE (Definitive, Highly probable, Probable, Possible, Unrelated, Unknown), Severity of AE (Yes, No. In case of severity it will be classified according to the categories of: causes the death of the patient, threatens life, requires hospitalization or prolongs an existing hospitalization, produces a disability, significant or persistent disability , produces a birth defect or congenital anomaly), Attitude towards the treatment under study (Without changes, Dose modification, Temporary interruption of treatment, Definitive interruption of treatment, according to the attitude decided by the clinical investigator), Result of the AE (Recovered, Improved, Persists, Squeals)).

Clinical response (For patients included in Cohort A, it will be evaluated through the respiratory function test and the COPD status will be collected at the end of treatment according to the GOLD criteria. For patients included in Cohort B, it will be evaluated through imaging and will collect the control of the disease in local relapse or relapse at a distance). Measurement time: at any time during the treatment and follow-up time.
