Referring to fig. 1, 3 and 8, a catheter 100 for delivering a drug 50 to a focal zone 62 is provided in accordance with an embodiment of the present application. Catheter 100 includes drug storage body 40, first balloon and tube assembly 10. Wherein the drug storage body 40 is made of a degradable material and accommodates the drug 50. The first bladder 20 is made of an elastic material and has an expanded state and a contracted state; and when the first bladder 20 is in the contracted state, the outer surface of the first bladder 20 contracts and holds the medicine storage body 40. The tube assembly 10 is provided with an insertion end 11 for being inserted into the focal zone 62, the first bag body 20 is connected to the insertion end 11, and the tube assembly 10 is provided with a first flow passage 15; the first flow passage 15 is used to input a medium to the first bladder 20 to switch the first bladder 20 to the inflated state. Further, the first balloon 20 is in an inflated state, and its outer surface is deployed and will release the drug-storing body 40 at the focal zone 62, and press the drug-storing body 40 against the organs of the human body at the focal zone 62. Referring to FIG. 8, in some embodiments, the focal zone 62 may be located on an inner wall of a tissue or organ 60, such as a blood vessel, of a human body, which may be a blood vessel.
The drug storage body 40 is made of a degradable material. Specifically, the drug reservoir 40 may be made of a biodegradable material that is capable of being absorbed down the organism to release the drug 50 to the corresponding location of the focal zone 62. Alternatively, the drug reservoir 40 is made of one or more of polylactic acid-based polymer, polyolefin polymer, and polyester material. It will be appreciated that after the drug storage body 40 is delivered to the focal zone 62 via the first balloon 20, the drug storage body is released when the first balloon 20 is switched to the inflated state, and is further capable of being connected to the organs of the human body at the focal zone 62, and gradually degrading to release the drug 50 stored therein to the site. In addition, since the medicine storage body 40 is biodegradable, no great toxic or side effects are brought about.
The drug 50 may be a lipid-soluble drug 50. Optionally, the drug 50 is one or more of an anticancer drug, an anticoagulant, and a microbial immunosuppressant. Optionally, the drug 50 is one or more of paclitaxel or liposoluble drugs such as rapamycin, sirolimus, etc.
In the contracted state, the first bladder 20 has folds or grooves formed on its surface; the medicine storage bodies 40 may be provided in plurality, wherein a part of the medicine storage bodies 40 can be accommodated in the folds or the grooves, and another part of the medicine storage bodies 40 can be adhered to other parts of the outer surface of the first bag body 20. Referring to fig. 3, the first bladder 20 is in an inflated state with the pleats or grooves stretched and the medicine storage body 40 stored therein is discharged; after the first bladder 20 expands and has a smoother outer surface, each drug storage body 40 is completely exposed and can be pressed by the outer surface of the first bladder 20 to the corresponding part of the viscera of the human body in the focal zone 62, thereby releasing the drug 50 thereto.
The tube assembly 10 may be integrally formed or may comprise a plurality of components and together comprise an assembly having a first flow passage 15. Wherein, the first runner 15 is communicated with the inside of the first bag body 20 and the external pressurizing structure at the same time; the external pressurizing structure is capable of delivering medium to the first bladder 20 through the first flow passage 15; the medium may be a gas, a liquid, or other fluid capable of switching the first bladder 20 from the contracted state to the expanded state.
It will be appreciated that the insertion end 11 is extended into the focal zone 62, and the first balloon 20 holding the drug storage body 40 is disposed opposite to the human organ of the focal zone 62; pressurizing the first bladder 20 through the first flow passage 15 to switch the first bladder 20 to the inflated state; at the same time, the first capsule 20 gradually releases the drug storage body 40 on the outer surface thereof, and pushes the drug storage body 40 to the human organ of the focal zone 62, so that the drug storage body 40 can be connected with the human organ and release the drug 50 to the human organ of the focal zone 62 by means of unfolding and/or self-degradation. Wherein, the first bag body 20 gradually compresses the medicine storage body 40 between the viscera and the outer wall thereof in the expansion process, and then continues to expand so that the part of the outer surface of the medicine storage body 40 which is not provided with the medicine storage body is attached to the viscera, thereby restricting the blood flow; and during the process of releasing the drug 50 from the drug reservoir 40, it is tightly connected to the organs of the human body in the focal zone 62, thereby helping to prevent the drug 50 from being washed by blood. In summary, the present application solves the technical problem of how to reduce the loss of the drug 50.
In addition, since the loss of the medicine 50 is small and the utilization rate of the medicine 50 is high, the medicine 50 carried by the first capsule body 20 is small when the medicine is used for treatment, thereby being beneficial to reducing the production cost; and also helps to reduce toxicity of the drug 50 to the human system due to the reduced amount of drug 50 flowing to other parts of the human body.
Optionally, the drug 50 is externally provided with a coating; the coating layer can be liposome, hydrogel, micelle, vesicle or degradable macromolecule; the medicine 50 is wrapped by the wrapping layer and then stored in the medicine storage body 40. It can be appreciated that the wrapping layer has a strong viscosity, and the drug 50 can be adhered to the corresponding part of the viscera of the human body through the wrapping layer located outside the drug storage body 40 after being released, so as to avoid the loss of the drug 50 due to blood washing. Wherein the degradable polymer can be poly (lactic acid-co-glycolic acid), polylactic acid, poly epsilon-caprolactone, collagen, albumin, gelatin, chitosan, etc.
Referring to fig. 4, optionally, in some embodiments, the first bladder 20 may have a fishtail groove 22 formed in its surface when in the contracted state; the notches of the fish tail shaped groove 22 can be closed, and a narrow space can be opened to enable the medicine storage body 40 to be stored in the groove. Optionally, the fishtail groove 22 is formed in plurality when the first bladder 20 is in the contracted state; a plurality of medicine storage bodies 40 are accommodated in any one of the fishtail grooves 22. It will be appreciated that each of the fishtail grooves 22 is capable of expanding and forming a smoother surface when the first bladder 20 is in the inflated condition and exposing each of the reservoirs 40 to connect with the body organ of the focal zone 62.
Referring to fig. 5, optionally, in some embodiments, the first bladder 20 is formed with a flap 23 on a surface thereof when in a contracted state; each of the flaps 23 may be spirally arranged in the same direction, and a gap 24 capable of accommodating the medicine storage body 40 is formed between two adjacent flaps 23; when the first bladder 20 is switched to the inflated state, the gaps 24 between the flaps 23 disappear and will expose the drug storage body 40 therein to connect with the body organs of the focal zone 62.
Alternatively, in some embodiments, the drug storage body 40 is made of a memory material and has a rolled state and an unfolded state, and the drug storage body 40 is heated to switch from the rolled state to the unfolded state. In fig. 8 and 10, the medicine storage body 40 is in a curled state; when the medicine storage body 40 is in a curled state, the medicine 50 is wrapped and contained. In fig. 6 and 11 to 13, the medicine storage body 40 is in a deployed state; when the drug storage body 40 is in the deployed state, the drug storage body 40 has an opening 42, and the drug 50 is released from the opening 42. It will be appreciated that in these embodiments, the drug reservoir 40 is in a coiled state prior to heating and is capable of enclosing the drug 50 to prevent the drug 50 from escaping under the scouring action of blood; the medicine storage body 40 is switched to the unfolding state after being heated, and is connected with the human viscera at the opening 42 and releases the medicine 50 at the opening 42, so that the medicine 50 can be directionally released to the corresponding part of the human viscera after flowing out through the opening 42, and further the loss caused by the medicine 50 flowing to the other directions is avoided.
Alternatively, the drug reservoir 40 is made of a high molecular polymer material having a shape memory effect. Specifically, the drug reservoir 40 may be made of one or more of polylactic acid-based polymers, polyolefin polymers, and polyurethane polymers, polyethylene, polyisoprene, polyester, and polyamide-based materials. It can be understood that the material integrates good biodegradability, biocompatibility and shape memory, basically has very good high mechanical strength and flexibility, and the deformation temperature can be adjusted to be near the temperature of a human body; therefore, the device is suitable for surgical operation or medical instrument intervention body, is easy to be deformed to a unfolding state by heating to release the medicine 50, and is not easy to generate repulsive action with human body. Alternatively, the drug reservoir 40 is made of one or more materials of high trans-polyisoprene, polynorbornene, polyurethane, and styrene-butadiene copolymer.
It will be appreciated that the drug reservoir 40 is made of a material having shape memory; shape memory is a temperature-dependent property that enables a shape memory material to deform at a temperature and then recover its original, undeformed shape when heated above a "deformation temperature". For example, the deformation temperature of the high trans polyisoprene material is 50 to 60 degrees, and the drug reservoir 40 made thereof expands and releases the drug 50 at 50 to 60 degrees. It will be appreciated that the foregoing material has a shape memory effect because it has a reversible phase that can undergo a "soft-hard" transition under external field stimulation, and thus can deform and set. The "soft-hard" transition of the reversible phase is achieved by a phase transition of the polymer, such as a transition from crystalline to molten or from glassy to highly elastic, etc., the transition temperatures being the crystalline melting temperature and the glass transition temperature, respectively. The stationary phase is formed by chemical crosslinking or physical crosslinking of high molecular chains, and can prevent molecular sliding and stress relaxation, thereby helping deformation and stress freezing and memorization.
Alternatively, the drug reservoir 40 is made of a degradable high molecular polymer material having a shape memory effect. The drug 50 is slowly released after the drug storage body 40 is unfolded, and the drug storage body 40 is degraded in the organism after the drug 50 is released, so that no toxic or side effect is generated.
It will be appreciated that the drug storage body 40 may be switched to the deployed state and release the drug 50 by one or more of the following means: hot water or hot air having a proper temperature is injected into the first bladder 20 through the first flow passage 15; heating the drug reservoir 40 by body temperature; energizing the drug storage body 40; applying radio frequency or X-ray energy to the drug storage body 40 by a suitable means; introducing a light source into the tube assembly 10 and causing the light source to illuminate the drug storage body 40 to cause it to expand; the magnetic field is used to heat the drug reservoir 40.

s3: the medicine releasing body 40 is connected with the viscera of the human body in the focus area 62 and releases the medicine 50 to the focus area 62.
It will be appreciated that in this embodiment, the folds or grooves in the outer surface of the first bladder 20 are gradually stretched during the transition to the inflated condition, and the respective reservoirs 40 are exposed. The first bag body 20 continues to expand, so that the medicine storage body 40 is pressed against the human viscera of the focus area 62, and is stably connected to the outer surface of the human viscera; at the same time, the flow of blood or other body fluids within the focal zone 62 is restricted to reduce or prevent the loss of the drug reservoir 40 from flushing. Thereafter, the drug reservoir 40 is coupled to the body organ of the focal zone 62 and releases the drug 50 to the focal zone 62 in an appropriate manner. Specifically, the drug reservoir 40 is formed of a material that can be degraded to release the drug 50; when the drug storage body 40 is made of a material having shape memory, the drug storage body 40 can be unfolded to release the drug 50 by: hot water or hot air having a proper temperature is injected into the first bladder 20 through the first flow passage 15; heating the drug reservoir 40 by body temperature; energizing the drug storage body 40; applying radio frequency or X-ray energy to the drug storage body 40 by a suitable means; introducing a light source into the tube assembly 10 and causing the light source to illuminate the drug storage body 40 to cause it to expand; the magnetic field is used to heat the drug reservoir 40. The manner in which the drug storage body 40 is deployed as mentioned in the foregoing embodiment is equally applicable to the present method. In the case where the medicine storage body 40 is made of a degradable memory material, the medicine is slowly released after the medicine storage body 40 is unfolded, and after the medicine is released, the medicine storage body 40 is degraded in the living body without any toxic or side effect.
In the drug release step, after the drug storage body 40 is unfolded, the saw teeth 41 at the opening 42 of the drug storage body can be embedded into the tissue wall 61 at the focal zone 62 so as to form a closed environment with the human viscera at the focal zone 62, and the drug 50 flows to the corresponding part of the human viscera and adheres to the corresponding wall surface. After that, the medicine 50 is released to the wall surface of the human organ for a certain period of time.
Optionally, the drug 50 delivery method may be applied in drug 50 therapy, further comprising the steps of:
s4: contracting, namely decompressing the first balloon and the second balloon to ensure that the first balloon and the second balloon are in a contracted state;
s5: retracting, retracting catheter 100 outside the body along the arrival time housed within its guidewire lumen 131;
s6: suturing, performing local compression hemostasis on the wound on the surface of the human body for the insertion end 11 or suturing hemostasis by a suturing device, and completing the interventional treatment process.
The catheter 100 of the present application may be applied to organs or tissues such as the stomach, intestines, trachea, blood vessels, etc., and the focal zone 62 may be a tumor, tumor mass, thrombus, inflammatory tissue, etc.
