I don't think you have any idea how much money you're talking about. The fact that you're proposing it in the context of an experimental device that was probably never even marketed is just deranged. We'd still be stuck with 1950s-level technology if you had your way because nobody could afford to develop any new products that can't be made in a basic machine shop.
You asked how it might work, you didn't say it had to be practical lmao
The whole point of a clinical trial is to enroll volunteers who are willing to undergo a treatment that might not work at all and might not be available in the future even if it does work. Not only that, but you might expect to get a potential cure and end up with only a sugar pill.
If you think any of that is unreasonable, then don't enroll in a clinical trial.
