How useful would be the Single-patient clinical trials for improving the hopes of Personalized medicine

Single patient Clinical Trial are not new idea, FDA did not focus since such trial canot prove the efficacy and safety of medicine over a large pool of patient with sufficient data. But I was forced to re-think after reading the article http://www.technologyreview.in/biomedicine/12537/ why cant we use the the concept mentioned in to overcome the ethical and other challenges in current mode of trials.

So I decided to ask the question to the linkedin audience http://www.linkedin.com/answers/technology/biotech/TCH_BIO/667022-9262868?browseIdx=0&sik=1272969161323&goback=.amq
