II. Respect for the Dignity of Persons
2295
Research or experimentation on the human being cannot legitimate acts that are
in themselves contrary to the dignity of persons and to the moral law. the
subjects’ potential consent does not justify such acts. Experimentation on
human beings is not morally legitimate if it exposes the subject’s life or
physical and psychological integrity to disproportionate or avoidable risks.
Experimentation on human beings does not conform to the dignity of the person
if it takes place without the informed consent of the subject or those who
legitimately speak for him.
