I think the question here has some flawed assumptions. I know that modern medicine can't do everything, but I also think there's no such thing as an "incurable disease." If I'm going to die of a disease we don't know how to fix and there's nothing I can do about it, I want the right to sign a waiver and be put on experimental treatments a lot more than a right to turn the morphine drip all the way up and gallop off into la la land.
And here in the US, experimental treatments are not unheard of, but they often take a politician stepping in to make it legal.
Assisted suicide does nobody any good. Experimental treatments at least have a potential of doing otherwise, for others if not myself. You can argue that both should be a right, but I think that experimental treatment should be the preferred option because at least it does something constructive with a bad situation.
