A UK charity that funds research into DIPG, a brainstem tumour of children, including UK CAR-T cell trials, and gives families information about the disease.
Abbie's Army was formed in November 2012 in memory of Abbie, diagnosed with DIPG at the age of 6 on 13 April 2011 and treated at The Royal Marsden, and registered with the Charity Commission, according to its home page. It raises money to commission or contribute to research on DIPG with advice from scientific advisers; the projects its site lists include the CARMIGO trial of GD2 CAR-T cell therapy for DIPG/DMG, the GLIMPS trial of IL-13RA2 CAR-T cell therapy for paediatric high-grade glioma and DIPG/DMG, and laboratory work on BDNF-TrkB signalling. Its site also explains DIPG symptoms, standard treatment and clinical trials for families, and states that one child in the UK is diagnosed with DIPG every nine days. It gives registered charity number 1149400 and a registered address in Ashford, Kent.
