Abstract:
An apparatus and system for delivering a lipophilic agent associated with a medical device including: a medical device, a first lipophilic agent capable of penetrating a body lumen, wherein the transfer coefficients of the first lipophilic agent is by an amount that is statistically significant of at least approximately 5,000, wherein the first lipophilic agent is associated with the medical device, wherein the first lipophilic agent/medical device is placed adjacent to said body lumen, and wherein a therapeutically effective amount of the first lipophilic agent is delivered to a desired area within a subject. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for improving patency in a subject involving placement of a medical device in a body lumen for treating and/or preventing adjacent diseases or maintaining patency of the body lumen.

US Patent:
2009016, Jun 25, 2009
Filed:
Oct 12, 2006
Appl. No.:
12/090253
Inventors:
Sandra E. Burke - Libertyville IL, US
Keith R. Cromack - Chesterfield MO, US
Matthew Mack - Chicago IL, US
John L. Toner - Libertyville IL, US
Assignee:
Abbott Laboratories - Abbott Park IL
International Classification:
A61K 9/00, A61K 31/337, A61K 31/395, A61K 31/56, A61P 7/02
US Classification:
424423, 514449, 514291, 514171
Abstract:
Systems and compositions comprising paclitaxel and a second drug, such as rapamycin, analogs, derivatives, salts and esters thereof are disclosed, as well as methods of delivery wherein the drugs have effects that complement each other. Medical devices comprising supporting structures capable of including or supporting a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient, which carrier or excipient can contain one or more therapeutic agents or substances, with the carrier preferably including a coating on the surface thereof, and the coating including the therapeutic substances, such as, for example, drugs. Supporting structures for the medical devices that are suitable for use in this invention include coronary stents, peripheral stents, catheters, arterio-venous grafts, by-pass grafts, and drug delivery balloons used in the vasculature. These compositions and systems can be used in combination with other drugs, including anti-proliferative agents, anti-platelet agents, anti-inflammatory agents, anti-thrombotic agents, cytotoxic drugs, agents that inhibit cytokine or chemokine binding, cell de-differentiation inhibitors, anti-lipaedemic agents, matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors, cytostatic drugs, or combinations of these and other drugs.

Multiple Drug Delivery From A Balloon And A Prosthesis

US Patent:
8501213, Aug 6, 2013
Filed:
Sep 14, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/617628
Inventors:
John L. Toner - Libertyville IL, US
Sandra E. Burke - Libertyville IL, US
Keith R. Cromack - Chesterfield MO, US
Randolf von Oepen - Los Altos Hills CA, US
Assignee:
Abbott Laboratories - Abbott Park IL
International Classification:
A61F 13/00
US Classification:
424422, 604509, 427 21
Abstract:
Disclosed is an interventional device for delivery of therapeutic agents from an angioplasty balloon and from a prosthesis such as an intraluminal stent. The invention also relates to the method of loading the beneficial agents onto the balloon and the device, as well as the method of delivery of the agents from separate surfaces. The invention also relates to an interventional device having a prosthesis surface that is loaded with a first beneficial agent, and a balloon surface loaded with a second beneficial agent. The invention also relates to a method of loading multiple beneficial agents onto the prosthesis surfaces and the balloon surfaces, and to a method of manufacturing an interventional device for the delivery of a first beneficial agent and a second beneficial agent from separate surfaces.
