Definitions
- the present invention relates to the localized delivery of therapeutic agents, and more particularly to the localized delivery of crystalline therapeutic agents to target locations within a body.
- systemic administration of drug agents treats the body as a whole even though the disease to be treated may be localized.
- systemic administration may not be desirable because the drug agents often have unwanted effects on parts of the body that are not intended to be treated, or because treatment of the diseased part of the body requires a high concentration of drug agent that may not be achievable by systemic administration.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,304,121 which is incorporated herein by reference, discloses a method of delivering water-soluble drugs to tissue at desired locations of a body lumen wall. The method generally includes the steps of impregnating a hydrogel polymer on a balloon catheter with an aqueous drug solution, inserting the catheter into a blood vessel to a desired location, and expanding the catheter balloon against the surrounding tissue to allow the release of the drug.
- One potential drawback to conventional localized drug administration is the uncontrolled rapidity at which the drug or drug solution is released from the delivery device. It is often desired, if not necessary, to control and/or lengthen the time period over which the drug is released. For example, it might be advantageous to lengthen the release time from seconds to minutes, or from minutes to hours, days, or even weeks. Exceptionally long release times as long as several months are often desired, for example, where the drug is released from an implanted device such as a stent. Moreover, it is often desired to control the release rate of the drug over prolonged periods of time.
- the present invention provides a medical device for insertion into a mammalian body, wherein the medical device has a therapeutic agent applied to at least a portion of a surface thereof, and the therapeutic agent is in a crystalline form.
- the present invention provides a method of delivering a therapeutic agent to a target location within a mammalian body.
- the method comprises the steps of placing crystals of the therapeutic agent on at least a portion of a surface of a medical device, and delivering the medical device to the target location.
- One advantage of the present invention is that it retards the release of therapeutic agents from a localized drug delivery system.
- Another advantage of the present invention is that it provides for a controlled release rate of therapeutic agents from a localized drug delivery system.
- Balloon catheter refers to a tubular instrument with a balloon or multiple balloons that can be inflated or deflated without removal after insertion into the body.
- Biodegradable refers to a substance that can be substantially chemically degraded or decomposed by exposure to bodily tissue or fluids.
- Biostable refers to a substance that is not substantially chemically degraded or decomposed by exposure to bodily tissue or fluids.
- Crystal refers to a solid of regular shape and, for a given material, characteristic angles, wherein the individual atoms or molecules within the crystal take up regular positions with respect to one another.
- Crystalstallization refers to the process whereby a material assumes a crystalline form when a vapor or liquid becomes solidified, or a solute precipitates from solution under proper conditions.
- Drug and “therapeutic agent” are used interchangeably to refer to any substance used in the prevention, diagnosis, alleviation, treatment or cure of disease.
- Stepsis refers to a stricture of any bodily canal.
- Stent refers to any tubular structure used to maintain or support a bodily orifice or cavity.
- Fig. 1 is a scanning electron microphotograph of medical device having crystals of therapeutic agent thereon.
- Fig. 2 is a scanning electron microphotograph of medical device having a layer of therapeutic agent crystals thereon.
- Fig. 3 is a graph showing the release profiles of paclitaxel from coated stents, for paclitaxel in both crystalline and non-crystalline form.
- the present invention makes use of crystals of therapeutic agents to retard the release of the therapeutic agent when delivered to a target location within a mammalian body. Moreover, the release of the therapeutic agent in its crystalline form is controlled in that the therapeutic agent is released at a characteristic rate or release profile over time.
- the present invention provides a medical device for insertion into a mammalian body, wherein the medical device has a therapeutic agent applied to at least a portion of a surface thereof, and the therapeutic agent is in the form of crystals.
- the therapeutic agent used in the present invention includes, for example, any pharmaceutically active material that can be crystallized.
- Such therapeutic agents may include biologically active solutes such as anti-thrombogenic agents such as heparin, heparin derivatives, urokinase, PPACK (dextrophenylalanine proline arginine chloromethylketone), rapamycin, probucol, and verapimil; angiogenic and anti-angiogenic agents; anti-proliferative agents such as enoxaprin, angiopeptin, or monoclonal antibodies capable of blocking smooth muscle cell proliferation, hirudin, and acetylsalicylic acid; anti-inflammatory agents such as dexamethasone, prednisolo ⁇ e, corticosterone, budesonide, estrogen, sulfasalazine, and mesalamine; antineoplastic/ antiproliferative/ anti-mitotic agents such as paclitaxel, 5-fluorouracil
- Preferred therapeutic agents for use in the present invention are paclitaxel and derivatives thereof.
- the therapeutic agent is placed on a medical device for insertion into the body to a target location.
- the medical device used in the present invention is any insertable or implantable device including, for example, stents, balloon catheters, blood clot filters, vascular grafts, stent grafts, aneurysm filling coils, intralumenal paving systems, etc., as are known in the art.
- a preferred medical device for use with the present invention is an implantable device such as a stent, for which the present invention allows for the continued release of therapeutic agents therefrom for extended time periods of up to several months.
- the therapeutic agent is applied to the medical device, for example, such that isolated, individual crystals 101 exist on the surface of the medical device 102.
- the therapeutic agent is applied to the medical device such that a layer 201 of crystals exists on at least a portion of the medical device 202.
- the crystals of the therapeutic agent are optionally placed within or over a polymer coating, which at least partially coats the medical device as described further herein.
- the crystals of the therapeutic agent are applied to the medical device by any suitable method.
- the crystals are formed by the following steps: i) placing a therapeutic agent, while in a non-crystalline form, into solution with a polymer in which the therapeutic agent is substantially soluble; ii) applying the solution onto at least a portion of a medical device as a coating; iii) drying the coating to form a dry coating wherein the therapeutic agent is dispersed in the polymer; iv) exposing the coated medical device to a non-solvent (i.e., a material in which the therapeutic agent is relatively insoluble); and v) allowing the therapeutic agent to diffuse out of the coating to the interface between the coating and the non-solvent, whereupon the therapeutic agent crystallizes on the surface of the coating.
- a non-solvent i.e., a material in which the therapeutic agent is relatively insoluble
- the non-solvent penetrates the coating such that the therapeutic agent crystallizes within the coating.
- the polymer coating comprises any polymeric material in which the therapeutic agent is substantially soluble.
- the polymer is, for example, hydrophilic, hydrophobic, and/or biodegradable.
- the polymer is selected from the group consisting of polycarboxylic acids, cellulosic polymers, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, maleic anhydride polymers, polyamides, polyvinyl alcohols, polyethylene oxides, glycosaminoglycans, polysaccharides, polyesters, polyurethanes, silicones, polyorthoesters, polyanhydrides, polycarbonates, polypropylenes, polylactic acids, polyglycolic acids, polycaprolactones, polyhydroxybutyrate valerates, polyacrylamides, polyethers, and mixtures and copolymers thereof.
- Coatings from polymer dispersions such as polyurethane dispersions (BAYHYDROL, etc.) and acrylic latex dispersions are also within the scope of the present invention.
- a preferred polymer for use in the polymer coating of the present invention is polyurethane.
- the crystals are formed by the following steps: i) forming a miscible solution comprising the therapeutic agent, a solvent and a non-solvent, wherein the therapeutic agent is substantially soluble in the solvent and substantially insoluble in the non- solvent, and wherein the solvent is miscible in, and more volatile than, the non-solvent; ii) applying the solution onto a medical device as a coating; and iii) allowing at least a portion of the solvent to evaporate from the coating, whereupon the therapeutic agent forms into crystals on the surface of the medical device.
- the therapeutic agent is applied to the medical device, while in solution or otherwise, by any suitable method.
- Preferred methods include spraying the device with the therapeutic agent or solution, and dipping the device into the therapeutic agent or solution.
- the thickness of the therapeutic agent, together with any polymer is in the range of from 1 to about 50 microns. The thickness of such a coating is not, however, a critical feature of the present invention so long as a sufficient amount of therapeutic agent to provide a sustained or controlled release over a suitable or desired time period is provided.
- the medical device is optionally at least partially coated with a polymer precoat for enhanced adhesion of the therapeutic agent.
- the polymer precoat should have a low solubility for the therapeutic agent.
- Preferred precoat materials include polycarboxylic acids, cellulosic polymers, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, maleic anhydride polymers, polyamides, polyvinyl alcohols, polyethylene oxides, glycosaminoglycans, polysaccharides, polyesters, polyurethanes, silicones, polyorthoesters, polyanhydrides, polycarbonates, polypropylenes, polylactic acids, polyglycolic acids, polycaprolactones, polyhydroxybutyrate valerates, polyacrylamides, polyethers, and mixtures and copolymers thereof.
- the crystals of the therapeutic agent are optionally coated with a polymer topcoat for physical protection of the crystals, and/or as a barrier to premature release of the therapeutic agent, and/or to further retard or control the release rate of the therapeutic agent.
- the topcoat may be either biodegradable or biostable. If the topcoat is biodegradable, the therapeutic agent is substantially released after the decomposition of the topcoat. If the topcoat is biostable, the therapeutic agent is substantially released by diffusion through the topcoat.
- Preferred biodegradable materials for the topcoat include polymers such as poly(L-lactic acid), poly(DL-lactic acid), polycaprolactone, poly(hydroxy butyrate), polyglycolide, poly(dioxanone), poly(hydroxy valerate), polyorthoester; copolymers such as poly (lactide-co- glycolide), polyhydroxy(butyrate-co-valerate), polyglycolide-co-trimethylene carbonate; polyanhydrides; polyphosphoester; polyphosphoester-urethane; polyamino acids; polycyanoacrylates; biomolecules such as fibrin, fibrinogen, cellulose, starch, collagen and hyaluronic acid; and mixtures thereof.

- Example 1 Formation of Paclitaxel Crystals from Coated Stents by Exposure to a Non-solvent Paclitaxel (TAXOL ® ) was placed into solution by mixing about 0.19 milligrams of polyurethane, about 0.10 milligrams reagent paclitaxel, and about 27.15 milligrams of 99.9% ACS HPLC-grade chloroform stabilized with ethanol. The mixture was mixed with a magnetic stirrer for about one hour to form a solution consisting of about 1.0% solids and having a polyurethane-to-paclitaxel ratio of about 65-to-35.
- TAXOL ® Non-solvent Paclitaxel
- the paclitaxel solution was sprayed onto 9 millimeter NIR ® (Medinol, Tel Aviv, Israel) stents with a Badger Air Brush model 350 sprayer at a pressure of about 19 psi for about 1 minute. The distance between the stents and the spray nozzle was about 2.5 inches. A uniform coating of approximately 13 microns was obtained. The coating was dried for about 30 minutes at about 65°C to remove solvent, followed by thorough drying for about 3 hours at 70°C under vacuum.
- 9 millimeter NIR ® Medinol, Tel Aviv, Israel
- Paclitaxel crystals were formed on some of the stents by exposure to about 5 milliliters of distilled water for about 1.5 days while stirring at room temperature. The stents were thereafter removed from water and air dried. Scanning electron microscopy was used to confirm the presence of paclitaxel crystals on the surface of the coated stents. The crystals were up to approximately 200 microns in length.
- Stents coated with paclitaxel in both crystalline and non- crystalline form were made in accordance with Example 1.
- the in-vitro release of paclitaxel from these stents was measured as a function of time. As shown in Fig. 3, the paclitaxel in crystalline form was released at a slower rate than the paclitaxel dispersed in the polyurethane coating on the coated stents.
- Topcoats are applied to the coated stents described in Example 1.
- the topcoats comprise either poly(lactide-co-caprolactone) in solution with 99.9% ACS HPLC-grade chloroform stabilized with ethanol, or polyvinyl alcohol in solution with deionized water.
- Topcoat solutions are applied to coated stents by spraying with a Badger Air Brush model 350 sprayer at a pressure of about 19 psi for about 10 seconds.
- the distance between the stents and the spray nozzle is about 2.5 inches.
- a uniform coating of approximately 1 to 2 microns is obtained.
- Paclitaxel is placed in solution with acetonitrile, a solvent. Water, a non-solvent, is added in an amount that does not result in precipitation of the paclitaxel from the acetonitrile / water mixture.
- the mixture of paclitaxel, acetonitrile and water is sprayed onto a NIR ® (Medinol, Tel Aviv, Israel) stent with a Badger Air Brush model 350 sprayer at a pressure of about 19 psi for about 1 minute.
- the distance between the stents and the spray nozzle is about 2.5 inches.
- a uniform coating of approximately 13 microns is obtained. As the acetonitrile evaporates from the coating, paclitaxel crystals form.
- the present invention provides for the controlled, localized delivery of therapeutic agents to target locations within a mammalian body.
- the invention makes use of crystals of such therapeutic agents to retard and/or control the rate of release.
