Mission
Founded in 1998, The Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF) works to urgently and aggressively fund research that will lead to the development of new treatments for multiple myeloma. As the world's number-one funder of myeloma research, the MMRF has raised more than $102 million to fund 70 laboratories worldwide. The MMRF's approach, with a focus on speed, innovation, and results, is widely recognized across the medical and scientific communities, as well as by several prominent publications, as an optimal model to accelerate medical research and drug development across various cancers and diseases. Today, the MMRF is supporting 30 new compounds and approaches now in clinical trials and pre-clinical studies and has facilitated 14 clinical trials through its sister organization, the Multiple Myeloma Research Consortium.
