    Abstract: The present invention is directed to implantable medical devices which may be used for controllably releasing a therapeutic agent within a patient and methods for making the same. These medical devices may include porous coatings, which may be polymer-free, located on an outer surface or abluminal surface of the medical device. The medical device may be a stent. The pores of the porous coating may be expandable to facilitate loading of the therapeutic agent. The medical device may be triggerable upon implantation of the medical device such that the volume of the voids shrinks to eject the therapeutic agent. The voids may be slots in the stent. Expandable materials or structures may be positioned in the voids to expand upon implantation and eject the therapeutic agent.

    Abstract: Drug-loaded medical devices such as stents and methods for manufacturing them are provided. In certain embodiments, the therapeutic agent is loaded only in or on areas of the medical device that do not undergo substantial deformation during expansion. The medical device may be provided with reservoirs in or on the first portions of the medical device that do not undergo substantial deformation during expansion, and the therapeutic agent may be loaded in these reservoirs. The reservoirs may be covered with a porous coating which may be a non-polymeric coating. In other embodiments, a non-polymeric coating is provided in a discontinuous manner in or on the medical device. A method includes the steps of providing a transfer member that includes a translucent substrate and a layer of transfer material such as a film or foil; attaching reservoirs to the transfer material; positioning the transfer member with the reservoirs adjacent a medical device, such as a stent, with the reservoirs facing the medical device; and directing a laser beam at the transfer member such that the laser beam passes through the translucent substrate to vaporize a portion of the transfer material, creating a pocket of trapped gas between the translucent substrate and reservoir, thereby forcing the reservoir from the transfer member to the medical device. The reservoirs may be formed of a non-polymeric material.

    Abstract: In methods and systems for applying a coating to a medical device, such as a coating comprising a therapeutic agent, electrons may be transferred from an electrode to ionize a therapeutic agent dissolved in an electrolytic solution. The ionized therapeutic agent may then be electrochemically delivered to the medical device. The medical device may be a stent, which may have a porous surface.

    Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, implantable or insertable medical devices are provided which contain the following: (a) substrate having one or more depressions that contain at least one therapeutic agent and (b) a porous membrane disposed over the substrate and the one or more depressions, which regulate transport of chemical species between the therapeutic-agent-containing depressions and the exterior of the device. The substrate and the porous membrane are formed of different materials each with a different thermal expansion coefficient. Moreover, one of the substrate and the porous membrane at least partially surrounds the other. Other aspects of the present invention are directed to methods of making such medical devices, and methods of treatment using such medical devices.
