摘要:
This disclosure relates to implantable medical devices coated with a taxane therapeutic agent, such as paclitaxel, in one or more solid form(s) having varying dissolution rates. Particularly preferred coatings comprise amorphous and/or solvated solid forms of taxane therapeutic agents that provide durable coatings that release the taxane over a desired period of time, which can be varied in the absence of a polymer by selecting the type and amount of solid forms of the taxane therapeutic agent in the coating. Other preferred embodiments relate to methods of coating medical devices and methods of treatment. The coatings can provide a sustained release of the taxane therapeutic agent within a body vessel without containing a polymer to achieve the desired rate of paclitaxel elution.

This disclosure relates to endolumenal medical devices coated with a taxane therapeutic agent in one or more solid form(s) having varying dissolution rates. Particularly preferred coatings comprise amorphous paclitaxel, dihydrate paclitaxel, or combinations thereof that provide durable coatings that release paclitaxel over a desired period of time, which can be on the order of hours, days or weeks. Preferred embodiments relate to medical device coatings of paclitaxel, or paclitaxel analogs or derivatives, having one or more polymorph solid forms that provide a prolonged release of paclitaxel within a body vessel without requiring a polymer carrier or barrier layer to achieve the desired rate of paclitaxel elution.
摘要:
The present disclosure provides methods of measuring the release of a taxane therapeutic agent from a medical device as a function time in contact with a suitable elution medium. The method preferably comprises the step of contacting a coated medical device comprising a taxane therapeutic agent with an elution medium comprising a cyclodextrin to provide an elution profile indicative of the composition or configuration of a medical device coating comprising a taxane therapeutic agent. The elution profile can provide information about the medical device coating that is useful in lot release testing.
摘要:
Medical devices for implantation within a body vessel comprising a graft material and a releasable therapeutic agent are provided. The graft material preferably comprises a biocompatible polyurethane and a therapeutic agent. Preferably, the medical device is a stent graft formed by attaching a polyurethane graft material comprising an elutable taxane therapeutic agent to a radially expandable frame.

Methods of delivering a bioactive material to a body vessel are disclosed. The method steps can include providing an expandable medical device with a coating having a bioactive layer, and providing a second layer of a biodegradable polymer positioned over the bioactive layer. The second layer provides for controlled release of the bioactive material from the bioactive layer. The medical device is inserted into a body vessel using a catheter such that the medical device contacts the body vessel.
摘要:
This invention relates to medical devices and an angiotensin II type 2 (AT2) receptor antagonist compound, the medical device being adapted to release the AT2 receptor antagonist compound within a body of a patient. This invention also relates to medical devices and methods of treatment of disease, such as aneurysms and aortic dissection. Medical devices may include coated stents, grafts, stent grafts, balloons and catheters.
摘要:
One embodiment provides a medical device comprising a base material and a bioactive in contact with the base material, the bioactive having a proton binding site with a non-ionic form and an ionic form, the bioactive being less soluble in water when the proton binding site is in the non-ionic form than when the proton binding site is in the ionic form, wherein at least 5% w/w of the bioactive is present with the proton binding site in the non-ionic form and wherein the bioactive is not an anesthetic. Another embodiment provides such a medical device where the bioactive is an anesthetic and where the device is not a ureteral stent. Another aspect provides method of manufacturing such devices.
