Appendix Cancer on Radar: Making a Difference, Working Together
Amber is the official color of Appendix Cancer Awareness. It symbolizes the courage, strength, and resilience of appendix cancer patients, care partners, and their families. Working together, we aim to raise awareness among a wider community through shared messaging. Together we are stronger and louder…tog (ACPMP)ether we can make a difference!
PMP Pals, Appendix Cancer PMP Research Foundation (ACPMP), Pseudomyxoma Survivor, and CANCollaborate are united in enhancing understanding and support for patients with appendix cancer and the related condition pseudomyxoma peritonei. We’re advocating for more patient and care partner considerations, aggressive research to discover new treatments, and approval of existing, off-label uses. The goal? A cure, be it immunotherapy, chemotherapy cocktails, improved best practices, or early detection.
