There are compassionate treatment exemptions for research procedures, but they need to have a snowball's chance in hell of working. It's nice that the people behind this think that this meets that bar, but I'll believe it when independent experts in the field can vouch for the procedure having a reasonable chance of working.
If they do, great, go for it. If they don't, no amount of rabble-rousing of the uninformed (people like me) should permit them to operate on humans.
