It is so sad that there are so many vultures eager to make a profit out of desperate people with terrible diseases. This is why ethical guidelines and FDA regulations are for, after all. Of course it would be great to judge case-by-case (the scientist in the article is a real hero!). I would like to see a detailed cost-to-benefit study on the topic of allowing unapproved treatments for terminally ill patients.
