Benefit, risk, and the therapeutic misconception -- Looking backward: a model value for translational trials -- The chasm: the ethics of initiating first-in-human clinical trials -- Tropic of cancers: gene transfer in resource-poor settings -- Great expectations and hard times: expectation management in gene transfer -- Something in the sight adjusts itself: conclusions. 330 $aHuman gene transfer is widely regarded as one of the most promising technologies for the treatment of a variety of disorders, but it presents practitioners with a variety of difficult ethical questions. Gene Transfer and the Ethics of First-in-Human Research examines the ethical and policy dimensions of testing interventions in human beings for the first time. The book discusses the difficult ethical challenges that arise from attempting to translate laboratory discoveries into clinical applications. These range from which available techniques to use, when to initiate human testing, questions of consent, expectation in public arenas, how to define acceptable risk, and the inclusion of vulnerable or disadvantaged subjects in early phase trials. This book is relevant to ethicists, legal practitioners, policy makers, geneticists and clinicians involved in clinical trials of new medical interventions. 517 3 $aGene Transfer & the Ethics of First-in-Human Research 606 $aGene therapy$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aClinical trials$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aGene therapy$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aClinical trials$xMoral and ethical aspects. 676 $a615.8/95 700 $aKimmelman$b Jonathan$01050649 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459557003321 996 $aGene transfer and the ethics of first-in-human research$92480600 997 $aUNINA
