They claim it works with run flats:

Re invisible flats, I intend to pump, wait 5 minutes to see if the leak is fast or not. If I can drive, I will get myself to a place to get it fixed. If not and as a last resort, a bottle of sealant, which I was told are all water-based latex these days (have not verified), for easier cleaning.

If you have recommendations, please send them. Flats are dreadful.
