概要

In settlement of alleged violations of federal law prohibiting unfair acts and practices and unfair methods of competition, this consent agreement, accepted subject to final Commission approval, would require the Arlington, Illinois-based company and two affiliated hospitals to substantiate future claims regarding the success or efficacy of their cancer treatments and to ensure that testimonials they use do not misrepresent the typical experience of their patients. The consent agreement settles allegations that the company and the hospitals made false and unsubstantiated claims in advertising and promoting their cancer treatments.
