摘要:
Methods and compositions for the sustained release of treatment agents to treat an occluded blood vessel and affected tissue and/or organs are disclosed. Porous or non-porous bioabsorbable glass, metal or ceramic bead, rod or fiber particles can be loaded with a treatment agent, and optionally an image-enhancing agent, and coated with a sustained-release coating for delivery to an occluded blood vessel and affected tissue and/or organs by a delivery device. Implantable medical devices manufactured with coatings including the particles or embedded within the medical device are additionally disclosed.

摘要:
A coating for an implantable medical device is provided comprising a first layer including a first polymer and a second layer including a second polymer. The second layer is disposed over at least a portion of the first layer. The second polymer has a lower degree of hydration than the first polymer.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an implantable medical device comprising therapeutic agents coated on the device using polyesters for the drug reservoir layer that exhibit surface-eroding characteristics.
摘要:
Provided herein is a PEA polymer blend and coatings or implantable devices formed therefrom. The PEA polymer blend is formed of a PEA polymer and a material capable of hydrogen bonding with the PEA. The PEA polymer blend can form a coating on an implantable device, one example of which is a stent. The coating can optionally include a biobeneficial material and/or optionally with a bioactive agent. The implantable device can be used to treat or prevent a disorder such as one of atherosclerosis, thrombosis, restenosis, hemorrhage, vascular dissection or perforation, vascular aneurysm, vulnerable plaque, chronic total occlusion, claudication, anastomotic proliferation for vein and artificial grafts, bile duct obstruction, ureter obstruction, tumor obstruction, and combinations thereof.
摘要:
Hyaluronic acid (HA) conjugates or crosslinked HAs compositions for coating an implantable device are provided. The implantable device can be used for treating a disorder such as atherosclerosis, thrombosis, restenosis, high cholesterol, hemorrhage, vascular dissection or perforation, vascular aneurysm, vulnerable plaque, chronic total occlusion, claudication, anastomotic proliferation for vein and artificial grafts, bile duct obstruction, ureter obstruction, tumor obstruction, and combinations thereof.
