    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the ethics of offering a clinical trial to an undocumented and uninsured immigrant diagnosed with myelofibrosis in the U.S. Topics covered include the highlights of the book "The logic of care: Health and the problem of patient choice" by Annemarie Mol, the importance of the relationship between therapeutic misconception and health literacy in clinical trial communications, and things to consider to fit a clinical trial design into Mol's logic of care concept.
