> I wouldn't be surprised if we soon see desperate, sick, rich people try this out on themselves, skipping FDA approval

I know nothing about the FDA but for things like terminal cancer treatment, shouldn't there be a blanket exemption for "if the patient so wish, they can take whatever drugs they want even if unapproved"? When facing certain death, what's the worst that can happen? You die a bit sooner?
