Nazi Germany at beginning of World War II
• Was the most scientifically and technologically advanced country in the world,
• Had a proposed code of research ethics,
• Supported midwifery, nutrition programs,
• ecology, public health, human genetics, cancer, radiation, and asbestos research
![Page 6: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
However …
• The Nazis also …• exploited people’s trust in
the medical community • by performing unethical
experiments • on populations they
discriminated against.

Nazi Battlefield Medicine Experiments
• 1942: High altitude or low pressure experiments at Dachau
• 1942-1943: Freezing experiments at Dachau• 1942-1945: Malaria experiments at Dachau• 1943-1944: Phosphorus burn experiments at
Buchenwald • 1944: Seawater experiment at Dachau

At Ravensbruck
• women were shot or slashed on the legs.
• The wounds stuffed with glass, dirt, and bacteria cultures and sewn shut
• then treated with experimental anti-infective agents.

The Nuremberg Code
• Key Ideas– Voluntary Informed Consent– Right of the Subject to Withdraw from the
Experiment at any Time– A Human Subject Cannot be Sacrificed for the
Greater Good of Science – Investigator must terminate the experiment at
any time the well-being of his/her subjects is threatened.

Human Radiation Experiments• In 1994, President Clinton
appointed the Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments (ACHRE)
• To investigate unethical experiments conducted by our government during WWII and the Cold War Era
http://tis.eh.doe.gov/ohre/roadmap/achre/
![Page 13: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
ACHRE’S Investigation Revealed …
• testing on soldiers• feeding radioactive cereal to
teenagers at a school for the mentally retarded,
• irradiating the testicles of prison inmates,
• injecting plutonium into hospital patients,
• intentional releases of radiation into the environment …
![Page 14: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
4000 human radiation experiments conducted
• In a two prong effort by the US to– Provide for National Security– Provide medical studies to improve human health
• Too often deceptively, secretly, and/or without informed consent
![Page 15: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Testimony before ACHRE, 1995
• “My mother, Jan Stadt, had a number, HP-8. She was injected with plutonium March 9, 1946. She was 41 years old, and I was 11 years old at the time. My mother and father were never told or asked for any kind of consent to have this done to them.
• “My mother went in (to the hospital) for scleroderma...and a duodenal ulcer, and somehow she got pushed over into this lab where these monsters were.”
Milton Stadt Son of subject in the Rochester University experiments

The Thalidomide Tragedy
![Page 18: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Thalidomide was prescribed for morning sickness
• Approved in Europe in late 1950’s but not in US due to diligent efforts by one USDA doctor.
• However as was common practice among pharmaceutical companies …
• some U.S. doctors were supplied samples • and paid to study its safety and efficacy.
![Page 19: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
It was subsequently discovered that …
• Thalidomide causes severe deformities in babies• and its effects are even passed on to later
generations.

Declaration of Helsinki 1964
• Research with humans should be based on the results from laboratory and animal experimentation
• Research protocols should be reviewed by an independent committee prior to initiation
• Informed consent from research participants is necessary
• Research should be conducted by medically/scientifically qualified individuals
• Risks should not exceed benefits

“Dr. Beecher began his famous article in the NEJM by stating:
• “… medicine is sound, and most progress is soundly attained …”
![Page 28: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
He then went on to describe …
• 22 examples of research studies• with controversial ethics• conducted by reputable researchers and• published in major journals.
• "Until this article we assumed that unethical research could only occur in a depraved regime like the Nazis.“
Robert J. Levine, MD

Syphilis the AIDS of an earlier time
• Untreated, it can lead to – severe heart disease, – brain damage, – paralysis, and – death.
• The problem was, until 1907, no one could treat it.
![Page 31: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Then Nobel Prize-winning microbiologist Paul Ehrlich discovered Salvarsan
• an arsenic-based compound.• It was the first chemotherapy.
![Page 32: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The 1920’s was a progressive era in medicine
• Armed with confidence and the Scientific Method,
• Public Health Service officials were determined
• to control syphilis in their time.• They set up free treatment clinics
throughout the south, • including Macon county, Alabama,• home to the Tuskegee Institute.
![Page 33: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• While writing the final report, • Dr. Taliaferro Clark, head of the PHS
Venereal Disease Division • conceived an idea to salvage the
study …• Macon county “offered an
unparalleled opportunity • for the study of the effect of untreated
syphilis”• in the Negro male.
But in 1932, the funding for treatment ran out.
![Page 34: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro male (1932 – 1972)
• was only supposed to last a year …• but then Dr. Raymond Vondelehr • advocated continuing the study • to get autopsies.• Autopsies would confirm clinical
observation • and therefore greatly contribute • to the scientific reliability • of the study’s findings.
![Page 35: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
“Bringing them to Autopsy”
•By the time Jean Heller broke the story •in the Washington Star in 1972•The experiment had gone on for 40 years.•During all this time, it was no secret •to the wider medical community.•Results of the study had been published •in well known medical journals.•Yet no one ever questioned the study.
![Page 36: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
399 Participants
•None were ever told they had syphilis.•None were ever offered a cure •even when penicillin became available in 1943.•Researchers had even interfered •to keep subjects from getting penicillin•so the study could continue.
![Page 37: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
• 28 men died of syphilis• 100 men died from related complications• at least 40 wives were infected• 19 children had contracted the disease at birth • a whole people’s trust was shattered
“Nothing Learned will Prevent, Find, or Cure a Single Case”
![Page 38: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
“Bad Blood”
• Macon county residents were very poor.• They lived and died without medical care• because they could not afford it.• They didn’t distinguish between syphilis• and a host of other maladies • which they called “bad blood.”• They trusted the government doctors and• they traveled great lengths • to get a little free medical care.• They were told they were being treated for
“bad blood.”
![Page 39: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
“I, like most everybody else, • “was horrified at the things
that were practiced upon these Jewish people, such as doing experiments while the patients were not only alive but doing such things as would cause their deaths.
• “All these sorts of things were horrendous to me and I, like most everyone else, deplored them.”
Dr. John R. Heller, Researcher, Tuskegee Syphilis Study
![Page 40: Life is all about choices … Human Subjects Research Ethics](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062618/55150f9155034673228b490f/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Final Report of Tuskegee Syphillis Study
• "Society can no longer afford • to leave the balancing of
individual rights • against scientific progress • to the scientific community."

Which led in 1978 to the opening words of the Belmont Report
• “Scientific Research has produced substantial social benefits.
• “It has also posed some troubling ethical questions.”

Questions to Consider• Why should we be concerned about Human Subject Research?• • Do you think another Tuskegee could happen in the future?• • Do you think a Tuskegee could ever happen to you?• • Can you envision yourself ever being faced with an ethical dilemma in
Human Subjects research? What are some guidelines or resources you could turn to?
• • And finally,• • The Tuskegee Study started in the United States in 1932 and continued for
40 years, well past the Nuremberg trials. It was also no well kept secret. Research articles were published in major medical journals during this time. Why do you think nobody saw a connection between Nuremberg and the Tuskegee Syphilis Study?
