OHRP – Alliance for Human Research Protection

Alliance for Human Research Protection Fri, 18 Jul 2003 Dear Dr. Campbell and others concerned about ethical research: This is in response to your July 11 comments objecting to AHRP’s criticism of the ethics of two controversial ARDS experiments sponsored by the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute conducted at participating ARDSNetwork centers.

4,500 vulnerable premature babies are being sought as guinea pigs in 7 government-funded experiments being conducted by the National Research Network–the same Network that conducted the lethal oxygen experiment. .

Is it progress when US government sponsored medical research moves from deliberately infecting Guatemalan men with syphylis to designing experiments that kill premature babies?

On Jan. 28, 2013, Emergent BioSolutions, manufacturer of BioThrax (Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed) reported its failure to develop an animal model to provide evidence for assessing efficacy of anthrax vaccine in human.
