The Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF) was founded in 1998 by twin sisters Karen Andrews and Kathy Giusti following Kathy's diagnosis with multiple myeloma. Today, the MMRF is the world's number one private funder of myeloma specific research. Multiple myeloma, a cancer of the plasma cell, is an incurable but treatable disease. Through continued research, several promising new therapies are helping patients live longer, healthier lives. The estimated frequency of multiple myeloma is 5-6 new cases per 100,000 persons per year. Accordingly, in the USA 15,980 new cases are expected to be diagnosed in 2005. At present there are more than 50,000 people in the United States living with multiple myeloma. www.steinway.com www.multiplemyeloma.org www.uca.edu/publicappearances |
