Abstract

A system for injecting controlled release medicinal implants has a syringe-like injector body with a lumen and plunger. A needle is attached to the injector body and receives therein an injectable implant with an internal hollow. The implant is retained in the needle by friction, which is overcome by the plunger upon dispensing. As the plunger moves from the retracted position to the deployed position, it forces a medicament previously loaded into the injector body into the implant hollow and then pushes the implant out of the needle into the creature into which the needle has been inserted. The implant may contain a filler to absorb flowable medicaments to aid in their retention within the implant. As in known implants, the medicament is released gradually depending upon the dissolution rate of the implant body which is formed from a biodegradable material. Because the medicament is loaded into the implant at the time of injection, issues concerning the reaction of the medicament with the implant material during preparation and storage are eliminated.

Claims (24)

1. A system for implanting medicinal implants into the body of a living creature, comprising:
an injector body with a first lumen therein;
a plunger slideable within said first lumen between a retracted position and a deployed position;
a needle having a second-lumen therein, said needle coupled to said injector body with said second lumen communicating with said first lumen;
an injectable implant having an internal hollow and positionable within at least one of said first lumen and said second lumen, said hollow communicating with said first lumen;
a medicament, storable at least partially within said first lumen when said plunger is in said retracted position, said internal hollow of said injectable implant receiving at least a portion of said medicament when said plunger is moved from said retracted position to said deployed position, said plunger pushing said injectable implant through said second lumen and out of said needle when said plunger assumes said deployed position.
2. The system of Claim 1, wherein said implant is biodegradable and provides a selected rate of release of said medicament into the body of the creature.
3. The system of Claim 2, wherein said injectable implant is formed from a material selected from the group consisting of biodegradable polymers, biopolymers, bioabsorbable starches and blends thereof.
4. The system of Claim 1, wherein the phase of said medicament is selected from the group consisting of solid, liquid, gel, suspensions and paste.
5. The system of Claim 4, wherein said medicament has an active agent component selected from the group consisting of antibiotics, antiviral agents, .
anticancer agents, anti-rejection agents, analgesics, anti-inflammatory agents, hormones, antigens, cyotkines, attachment factors, genes, peptides, proteins, nucleotides, carbohydrates, cells, cell fragments, growth factors, polysaccharides, glycoproteins and lipoproteins.
6. The system of Claim 1, wherein said injectable implant has an input opening to admit said medicament and a vent to discharge gas displaced by said medicament.
7. The system of Claim 6, wherein said injectable implant is substantially tubular in shape.
8. The system of Claim 6, wherein said injectable implant has cross-sectional dimensions approximating the cross-sectional dimensions of said first lumen.
9. The system of Claim 1, further including a fitter disposed within said internal hollow of said injectable implant, said medicament diffusable into said filler.
10. The system of Claim 9, wherein said filter is a biodegradable fiber.
11. The system of Claim 1, wherein said injectable implant has a friction fit relationship relative to at least one of said first lumen and said second lumen.
12. The system of Claim 1, further including a seal disposed in a distal end of said first lumen, said seal retaining said medicament within said first lumen when said plunger is in said retracted position.
13. The system of Claim 12, wherein said seal is a removable plug.
14. The system of Claim 12, wherein said seal is a rupturable membrane.
15. The system of Claim 1, wherein said needle is removably coupled to said injector body.
16. The system of Claim 15, wherein said injector body includes an elongated cylindrical barrel with a threaded nipple at a distal end thereof, said needle having a peripheral collar disposed proximate a first end thereof and further comprising a needle retention cap having a threaded bore terminating in a bridging cap member with a needle bore therein for accommodating said needle therethrough, said threaded bore being threadedly receivable on said threaded nipple, said bridging cap member abutting said peripheral collar for urging said needle toward said threaded nipple when said needle retention cap is threadedly received thereon.
17. The system of Claim 16, wherein said nipple has a needle aperture therethrough communicating with said first lumen, said needle aperture slideably receiving said first end of said needle, and further comprising a gasket slideable over said needle proximate said first end, said gasket being captured between said collar and said nipple when said needle retention cap is received on said nipple.
18. The system of Claim 15 wherein said needle is removably coupled to said injection body by a Leur-type connector.
19. A method for introducing a medicament into the body of a living creature, comprising the steps of:
(A) providing an injector having a first lumen therein, a plunger slideable within the first lumen between a retracted position and a deployed position and a needle with a second lumen disposed at one end of the injector for penetrating the body of the creature;
(B) providing an injectable implant with an internal hollow therein;
(C) charging the first lumen with a medicament;
(D) inserting the injectable implant into the second lumen;
(E) penetrating the body of the creature with the needle;
(F) moving the plunger from the retracted position to the deployed position, the plunger moving the medicament into the hollow of the injectable implant as it moves from the retracted position towards an intermediate position contacting the injectable implant and pushing the injectable implant out of the needle and into the body of the creature as the plunger moves to the deployed position.
20. The method of Claim 19, further comprising the step of assembling the needle to the injector just prior to moving the plunger in said step (F)
21. The method of Claim 20, further comprising the step of sterilizing the injector and the injectable implant separately from the medicament and prior to moving the medicament into the hollow of the injectable implant in said step (F).
22. The method of Claim 19, further comprising the step of sealing the medicament in the first lumen after charging he first lumen with medicament in said step (C) and overcoming the sealing of the medicament in the first lumen prior to said step of moving the medicament into the hollow of the injectable implant in said step (F).
23. The method of Claim 19, wherein the medicament has approximately the same volume as said hollow.
24. The method of Claim 19, wherein the medicament includes living cells and further comprising the step of waiting to move the plunger after the plunger has reached the intermediate position in order to allow the cells to interact with the injectable implant prior to penetrating the body with the needle and prior to injecting the injectable implant into the body of the creature.
