THE POWER OF THE MMRF It usually takes 10 years to develop one new cancer-fighting drug. The MMRF has helped deliver seven new life-saving drugs in less than 12 years and there are currently more in the pipeline. We have helped reinvent the cancer research system by developing a unique model that demands collaboration and shares research findings worldwide. The result is an unparalleled track record. We have helped triple the life expectancy of myeloma patients. With the most respected research and medical industry partners, we have fueled more studies, initiated more trials, developed more treatments, introduced more medicines, and had a far greater impact than any other cancer-fighting organization. The leadership of the MMRF has helped reimagine the research system that is now speeding success across all forms of cancer. We have momentum, but no matter how many lives we save, we will not rest until there is a cure for every patient.
