The Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF) is proud to unite with two of the most iconic entities in all of New York, the Empire State Building and the New York Road Runners (NYRR) for the Empire State Building Run-Up Powered by the MMRF on February 1, 2011.
As the event’s Benefiting Charity, the MMRF will fill a charity wave of 100 spots with MMRF PowerTeam members. Members of the MMRF PowerTeam tap into their power to make the difference in the search for a cure for multiple myeloma, an incurable blood cancer. The mission of the MMRF is to relentlessly pursue innovative means that accelerate the development of next generation multiple myeloma treatments to extend the lives of patients and lead to a cure.
Funds raised by the MMRF have accomplished outstanding milestone achievements such as more than doubling the patient life expectancy post-diagnosis, opening 30 clinical trials 60% faster than the industry standard in oncology, and sequencing the multiple myeloma genome. The four new myeloma treatments the MMRF helped bring to market are now being investigated for usage in 30 additional cancers. Yet, the five-year survival rate for myeloma remains one of the lowest of all cancers. The funds raised by the MMRF are critical in continuing to advance the progress being made.
