摘要:
A drug delivery balloon is provided comprising a balloon having a surface, and a coating disposed on at least a portion of the balloon surface, the coating including an cytostatic therapeutic agent, an excipient, and a plasticizer. In accordance with the present subject matter, at least 30% of the coating transfers from the balloon surface within two minutes after inflation of the balloon. Alternatively, at least 30% of the coating transfers from the balloon surface within one minute after inflation. The coating results in an effective pharmacokinetic profile of an cytostatic therapeutic agent in a vasculature or target tissue.
摘要:
A drug delivery balloon is provided, the a balloon having an outer surface, and a tunable coating disposed on at least a length of the balloon surface. The tunable coating includes a first therapeutic agent and a first excipient, and can include a second therapeutic agent and a second excipient. The first and second therapeutic agents have different dissolution rates during balloon inflation and therefore provide a coating that is tunable.
摘要:
A tunable coating formulation is described for a drug delivery balloon comprising a therapeutic agent, an excipient and a plasticizer. The tunable coating includes a first therapeutic agent and a first excipient, and can have a second therapeutic agent and a second excipient. The first and second therapeutic agents have different dissolution rates during balloon inflation and therefore provide a coating that is tunable. The plasticizer in the formulation has a weigh ratio of excipient to plasticizer below 1:0.1.
