Funding research, developing new therapies and ultimately treating and curing the disease
What is Cerebral Proliferative Angiopathy?
Cerebral Proliferative Angiopathy (CPA) is an extremely rare brain disease in which normal brain tissue is trapped within a network of abnormal capillaries, causing patients to live with Stroke like symptoms. Its diagnosis currently sits under the umbrella of a brain Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) and has been diagnosed in the past as a large diffuse AVM. However, it is thought that only 3.4% of brain AVM patients are diagnosed as having CPA. Currently, there are no known activities being undertaken to develop much needed therapies to control it and officially classify it as a separate disease - giving it a voice. Therefore, It is our mission to establish CPA Research Foundation as the number one global charity for CPA research and awareness.
