Definitions
- This invention is directed to coatings for implantable medical devices, such as stents.
- Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty is a procedure for treating heart disease.
- a catheter assembly having a balloon portion is introduced percutaneously into the cardiovascular system of a patient via the brachial or femoral artery.
- the catheter assembly is advanced through the coronary vasculature until the balloon portion is positioned across the occlusive lesion.
- the balloon is inflated to a, predetermined size to radially compress against the atherosclerotic plaque of the lesion to remodel the lumen wall.
- the balloon is then deflated to a smaller profile to allow the catheter to be withdrawn from the patient's vasculature.
- a problem associated with the above procedure includes formation of intimal flaps or torn arterial linings which can collapse and occlude the conduit after the balloon is deflated.
- thrombosis and restenosis of the artery may develop over several months after the procedure, which may require another angioplasty procedure or a surgical by-pass operation.
- a stent is implanted in the lumen to maintain the vascular patency.
- Stents are used not only as a mechanical intervention but also as a vehicle for providing biological therapy.
- stents act as scaffoldings, functioning to physically hold open and, if desired, to expand the wall of the passageway.
- stents are capable of being compressed, so that they can be inserted through small vessels via catheters, and then expanded to a larger diameter once they are at the desired location. Examples in patent literature disclosing stents which have been applied in PTCA procedures include stents illustrated in U.S. Patent No. 4,733,665 issued to Palmaz, U.S. Patent No. 4,800,882 issued to Gianturco, and U.S. Patent No. 4,886,062 issued to Wiktor.
- Biological therapy can be achieved by medicating the stents.
- Medicated stents provide for the local administration of a therapeutic substance at the diseased site. In order to provide an efficacious concentration to the treated site, systemic administration of such medication often produces adverse or toxic side effects for the patient. Local delivery is a preferred method of treatment in that smaller total levels of medication are administered in comparison to systemic dosages, but are concentrated at a specific site. Local delivery thus produces fewer side effects and achieves more favorable results.
- One proposed method for medicating stents involves the use of a polymeric carrier coated onto the surface of a stent. A solution which includes a solvent, a polymer dissolved in the solvent, and a therapeutic substance dispersed in the blend is applied to the stent.
- the solvent is allowed to evaporate, leaving on the stent surface a coating of the polymer and the therapeutic substance impregnated in the polymer.
- a coating of the polymer and the therapeutic substance impregnated in the polymer is needed. More specifically, for the effective treatment of restenosis, it is important to maintain the concentration of the drug at a therapeutically effective level for an acceptable period of time. Hence, controlling a rate of release of the drug from the stent coating is important.
- coatings for reducing the rate of release a therapeutic substance from implantable devices, such as stents are desired. The coatings should prolong the residence time of the drug in the patient.
- a coating for an implantable medical device comprises poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) having a weight- average molecular weight between about 200,000 and about 250,000 Daltons.
- a coating for an implantable medical device is provided, the coating comprises poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) having a polydispersity index between about 2.6 and about 3.0.
- a coating for an implantable medical device comprises a first layer containing a polymer and a therapeutic substance, wherein a ratio between the therapeutic substance and the polymer in the first layer is between about 1 :1 and about 1 :25.
- a method of coating a stent comprises forming a coating comprising a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl alcohol on the stent, the copolymer having a weight-average molecular weight between about 200,000 and about 250,000 Daltons or a polydispersity index between about 2.6 and about 3.0.
- a coating for an implantable medical device can include a drug- polymer layer, a topcoat layer, and an optional primer and finishing coat layers.
- the drug- polymer layer can be applied directly onto the stent and to serve as a reservoir for the sustained release of a therapeutic agent.
- the topcoat layer serves as a rate limiting membrane which controls the rate of release of the drug.
- the optional primer layer can be applied between the stent and the drug-polymer layer to improve the adhesion of the coating to the stent.
- the optional finishing coat layer can be applied over the topcoat layer and can serve as the outermost layer of the coating. The finishing coat layer can be used for improving the biocompatibility of the underlying layer.
- the process of the release of the drug includes at least three distinctive steps. First, the drug is absorbed by the polymer of the topcoat layer on the drug-polymer layer/topcoat layer interface. Next, the drug diffuses through the topcoat layer using empty spaces between the macromolecules of the topcoat layer polymer as pathways for migration. Finally, the drug arrives to the outer surface of the topcoat layer and desorbs from the outer surface. At this point, the drag is released into the blood stream. If the finishing coat layer is used, the drug can diffuse through the finishing coat layer in a similar fashion. Therefore, the optional finishing coat layer, if used, can also serve as a rate limiting barrier.
- the topcoat layer has properties designed to provide an enhanced degree of control of the rate of release of the drug.
- the topcoat layer can be made of a polymer having increased weight-average molecular weight (M w ), or an increased value of the polydispersity index (PDI), or both increased M w and the PDI value.
- M w weight-average molecular weight
- PDI polydispersity index
- the term "increased" means as compared to the M w and/or the PDI value of the polymers currently used to make the topcoat layer.
- M w molecular weight distribution
- M n number-average molecular weight
- a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl alcohol is one example of a polymer used to fabricate the optional primer layer, the drug-polymer layer, the topcoat layer and/or the finishing coat layer.
- EVAL has the general formula -[CH 2 -CH 2 ] m -[CH 2 -CH(OH)] n -.
- EVAL is a product of hydrolysis of ethylene- vinyl acetate copolymers and may also be a terpolymer including up to 5 molar % units derived from styrene, propylene and other suitable unsaturated monomers.
- the topcoat layer can be made of a brand of EVAL having M w of between about 200,000 and about 250,000.
- the brand of EVAL can have the PDI value of between about 2.6 and 3.0.
- the brand of EVAL can have both M w of between about 200,000 and about 250,000 and the PDI value of between about 2.6 and 3.0. Theses ranges of M w and/or the PDI are expected to result in decrease of the release rate of the drug through the topcoat layer.
- a grade of EVAL having M w of between about 160,000 and about 180,000 and the PDI - between about 2.2 and 2.4 can be used to make the optional primer layer and/or the drug-polymer layer.
- suitable polymers can also be used to form the optional primer layer, the drag- polymer layer, the topcoat layer, and/or the optional finishing coat layer.
- suitable polymers include poly(hydroxyvalerate), poly(L-lactic acid), polycaprolactone, poly(lactide-co-glycolide), poly(hydroxybutyrate), poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-valerate), polydioxanone, polyorthoester, polyanhydride, poly(glycolic acid), poly(D,L-lactic acid), poly(glycolic acid-co-trimethylene carbonate), polyphosphoester, polyphosphoester urethane; poly(amino acids), cyanoacrylates, poly(trimethylene carbonate), poly(iminocarbonate), co-poly(ether-esters) (e.g.
- PEO/PLA polyalkylene oxalates, polyphosphazenes, biomolecules (such as fibrin, fibrinogen, cellulose, starch, collagen and hyaluronic acid), polyurethanes, silicones, polyesters, polyolefms, polyisobutylene and ethylene-alphaolefin copolymers, acrylic polymers and copolymers, vinyl halide polymers and copolymers (such as polyvinyl chloride), polyvinyl ethers (such as polyvinyl methyl ether), polyvinylidene halides (such as polyvinylidene fluoride and polyvinylidene chloride), polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl ketones, polyvinyl aromatics (such as polystyrene), polyvinyl esters (such as polyvinyl acetate), copolymers of vinyl monomers with each other and olefins (such as ethylene-methyl methacrylate copolymers, acryl
- the release rate can be modulated by adjusting the ratio between the drug and the polymer in the drug-polymer layer of the stent coating.
- the ratio can be between about 1 :1 and about 1 :25, for example, about 1:1.25.
- the coating can have a single drug-polymer layer or a plurality of sequentially applied drug-polymer sub-layers, where each drug-polymer sub-layer can have a different ratio between the drug and the polymer within the 1 : 1 to 1 :25 limits.
- the drags contained in each sub-layer can also be different from the drags contained in any other sub-layer.
- the decrease of the release rate can be achieved by inducing the process of transformation of the amorphous portions of the polymer of the topcoat layer to a crystalline form.
- the topcoat can be heat-treated by annealing.
- the annealing can be performed by using, for example, hot air.
- the temperature used for heat treatment can be between about 130°C and 150°C, for example, 140°C.
- the annealing cycles comprising between about 3 and about 7 seconds, for example, about 5 seconds of heating and about 10 to about 20 seconds, for example, about 15 seconds of keeping the heat off, can be used.
- the heat-treatment can include, for example, 10 annealing cycles.
- the amorphous portions of the polymer forming the topcoat layer are crystallized and re-aligned leading to tighter packing of the macromolecules.
- the amount of free space between the macromolecules is reduced and the rate of diffusion of the drag through the topcoat layer is reduced. Consequently, the rate of release of the drug is reduced.
- the finishing coat layer can include a therapeutically active agent or agents to provide the coating with the additional medical benefits.
