Help Keep Us On the Cutting Edge

December 7, 2022

The turn of the calendar to December marks the kickoff of our year-end appeal, and this year we are asking for your continued support to help keep us #OnTheCuttingEdge. The milestones we have our sights set on next are the kinds of things we could have only dreamed about just a few short years ago. A future exists where therapies – not surgeries – treat the chronic aspects of this disease. And that future is closer than you might realize!

Cure HHT remains a driving force for medical and scientific advancements in HHT, and throughout the month, we will be highlighting the transformational work being done by three of our brilliant scientists and clinicians. These are examples of what your donations can accomplish! In addition to raising awareness and increasing access to care, we directly support projects like the ones you’ll hear about through seed grants, advocacy support and more.

Study: Validating a New Nosebleed Management Tool

December 2, 2022

Cure HHT, in partnership with doctors at Johns Hopkins’ Hospital HHT Center of Excellence, invites you to participate in a study aimed at validating a nosebleed eDiary tool that represents a critical element in our ability to gain FDA approval for future drugs and treatments.

Currently, a standardized tool does not exist that helps accurately capture and scale HHT patients’ data around quality of life and impact of their nosebleeds (duration, frequency, severity, etc.). By participating in the validation of this tool, you have the chance to help us develop a measurement system to help prove the benefit of future drugs and treatments during trials.

Become a Tissue Donor

August 25, 2022

Duke University, through a separate BVMC project, is collecting vascular malformations (VMs) associated with HHT to search for somatic mutations, possibly occurring in different genes than the ones already identified. All HHT patients undergoing surgery to remove an AVM from any organ (i.e., liver, lung, brain, skin, etc.), are encouraged to consider donating tissue. You do not need to have a brain AVM to participate in this study project.
