Pretty close to Michael Crichton's book "Next". Without the persons consent, they steal the cell line of someone who's cells naturally fight off cancer, create a cancer fighting drug, and then patent it, so the company legally owns that persons cells, and has a legal right to them with or without the person's consent.
