Compassionate Freedom of Choice Act of 2017 This bill amends the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to declare that nothing in that Act or in the Public Health Service Act prevents or restricts, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may not prevent or restrict, the manufacture, importation, distribution, or sale of drugs or medical devices that are intended for terminally ill patients, have been the subject of a clinical trial, and have not been approved by the FDA. The FDA may not require the disclosure, collection, or reporting of certain information concerning such drugs or devices. The sponsor of a clinical trial may voluntarily disclose, collect, or report such information to the FDA. Except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, a person who manufactures, imports, distributes, prescribes, or administers such a drug or device is not liable under state or federal law for loss, damage, or injury from the development, testing, production, acquisition, use, safety, or effectiveness of the drug or device.
