Supreme Court upholds ban on Laetrile for terminal cancer
The Supreme Court unanimously overturned a lower Denver ruling that allowed terminal cancer patients to obtain Laetrile. The decision holds that Laetrile is not exempt from the safety and efficacy standards of the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act, reinforcing federal authority to restrict the drug. Justice Thurgood Marshall wrote that safety must be balanced against potential benefits, and the act contains no special protection for drugs used to treat terminal illness.
