Seconded, I think that's the most rational approach. I also think the patients should be thoroughly coached by medical professionals or maybe even be required to take a required orientation session on potential down-sides so that the risk is truly emphasized. We consume some pretty harmful things on a daily basis - alcohol and tobacco at the top of the list - and those are perfectly legal for people to decide whether or not they want to put into their bodies. It's not a huge leap to give people that same personal choice when it comes to experimental drugs that might give them even a small chance of surviving a terminal illness.
