EHE Global Patient Registry

Patients Powering Research for Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma

The EHE Global Patient Registry empowers people with Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma (EHE) to join together to improve our understanding of this ultra-rare sarcoma.

Giving Tuesday

EHE Biobank

Patients are the key to finding new treatments for EHE! Researchers need tumor tissue, blood and fluid from EHE patients to understand disease progression and speed development of new drugs and therapies.

Global Consensus Paper: Guidance For Managing EHE

The EHE consensus paper is an important resource for anyone diagnosed with EHE, providing a better understanding of this ultra-rare sarcoma and facilitating more informed discussions and decision-making with medical teams.

Patient Services

Whether you are newly diagnosed or have been living with EHE for a while, you are not alone. The EHE Community is stronger together and includes patients, their families and friends and the many specialists working tirelessly to find treatments and a cure.
