RUNX1 Research Program

Welcome to the official YouTube channel of the RUNX1 Research Program (RRP), a nonprofit focused on advancing cancer prevention research for those affected by RUNX1 familial platelet disorder (RUNX1-FPD). RUNX1-FPD can be passed down from generation to generation and is caused by a variant (mutation) in the RUNX1 gene that often leads to low platelet counts and malfunctioning platelets. However, the biggest concern for these patients is their heightened risk of developing blood cancers.

Our channel aims to share the latest RUNX1 research findings and build a supportive community here for individuals and families with RUNX1-FPD. This includes posting expert talks, patient stories and resources that offer hope and actionable insights.

Join us in our journey to transform the lives of those affected by RUNX1-FPD. Subscribe to stay informed and connected to our community's progress. Together, we can make a difference in the world of cancer prevention and patient support.
