Definitions
- the present invention relates briefly to dilated medical devices in contact with the organism, such as, for example, balloon catheters coated with at least one layer of at least one antiproliferative, immunosuppressive, antiangiogenic, antiinflammatory, fungicidal and / or antithrombotic active ingredient and a transport mediator or a mixture of transport mediators, Process for coating these coated dilatable medical devices and the use of compositions for this coating.
- the narrowed site is flared for a short time of 1-3 minutes using the inflatable balloon at the end of the catheter, repeated more than twice if necessary.
- the vessel walls must be overstretched so that the constriction is repaired. This procedure results in microcracks in the vessel walls, which reach into the adventitia.
- the injured vessel is left to itself, so that the healing process, depending on the added injury, resulting from the period of overexpansion, the overstretching and the degree of overstretching results, more or less high-grade services are required. This is reflected in the high rate of reclosure after PTCA.
- the balloon catheter is used as a transport and implantation aid, so that overstretching of the vessel wall also occurs here, but in this case, this overstretching is required only for the period of stent dilatation. If the stent is stuck firmly in place, the balloon is deflated and removed. Thus, the duration of the overstretching is shortened and unique.
- the reduction in the rate of restenosis shows that this reduced overexpansion time and also the reduced degree of stent in the stent, despite introduction of the foreign material into the organism already leads to a reduced rate in the aftertreatment.
- the next goal in the history of the stent is the 100% prevention of reocclusion.
- the search for the combination of ideal drug and ideal as biodegradable as possible stent has begun.
- the suppression of cellular reactions in the first days and weeks is achieved primarily with the aid of preferably antiproliferative, immunosuppressive and / or anti-inflammatory agents such as derivatives / analogs and metabolites acting equally.
- the active ingredients and / or combinations of active ingredients are used in a meaningful manner to assist wound healing or the wound healing process.
- the improvements that have been made to balloon catheters in the past have related primarily to their ability to accurately and safely place a stent.
- the PTCA as a stand-alone method was largely superseded by stent implantation, especially in the coronary area.
- EP 0 383 429 A discloses a balloon catheter with tiny holes through which a heparin solution is delivered to the vessel wall during dilatation.
- a drug-eluting balloon catheter offers an alternative to the stent (CardioNews Letter 21.04.2006).
- This is a balloon catheter immersed in a solution of paclitaxel and X-ray contrast media, which, according to the results of the now one-year clinical trial, has achieved a 40% to 9% reduction in restenosis rate compared to the uncoated balloon catheter.
- Such a balloon catheter is disclosed, for example, in WO2004028582A1.
- the optical traceability achieved by the application of the contrast agent is advantageous, but the amount of active substance which can actually be used and taken up at the site after PTCA remains individual and uncontrolled, since even during the introduction of the balloon catheter in the bloodstream, starting from the groin to the first Heart dissolves an unquantifiable part of the coating from the balloon. In addition, during the dilatation of the balloon further pieces of the coating crumble and become off the surface in the bloodstream carried away. As a result, a portion of the drug content delivered to the balloon catheter does not reach the diseased site, but can only be considered ineffective, intravenous administration. The amount of lost portion is not controllable and is therefore not available for optimal care at the diseased site and in calculable dosage.
- the object of the present invention is to provide compositions for the coatings of catheter balloons, which ensure sufficient adhesion of the drug to the balloon surface during the introduction of the catheter balloon and on the other hand optimal drug transfer to the vessel wall during dilatation.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide drug-eluting balloon catheters and similar medical devices which can be used at short notice in the body and which, even with a short contact time, have a controlled and optimum Ensure drug transfer to and into the vessel wall, so that the healing process takes a positive course.
- the active substance is not already rinsed prematurely by body fluid from the medical device on the way to the destination site or, at the latest, crumbles when expanding and only an undefined or insufficient amount of active ingredient reaches the target.
- the very limited contact time must be sufficient so that the drug can be transferred in the appropriate dosage from the balloon catheter on or in the vessel wall.
- a problem is solved by special coating methods for catheter balloons, which coat the catheter balloon with a defined amount of a pharmacologically active substance, wherein the coating method uses a coating device with a volume measuring device for delivering a measurable amount of a coating solution by means of a dispensing device targeted to the surface of the catheter balloon.
- volume measuring device Any device capable of providing a measured amount of coating solution or measuring or indicating the amount of coating solution dispensed may serve as the volume measuring device.
- Volume gauges are therefore in the simplest case scales, scaled pipettes, scaled burettes, scaled containers, scaled wells, as well as pumps, valves, syringes or other piston-shaped containers capable of providing or delivering or dispensing a measured amount of coating solution.
- the volume measuring device only serves to either supply or dispense a certain amount of a coating solution or to measure and / or display a dispensed amount of coating solution.
- the volume measuring device thus serves to determine or measure the amount of coating solution transferred from the delivery device to the catheter balloon surface and thus to active substance.
- transport mediator is used below to refer both to a single transport mediator and to a mixture of transport mediators
- the dispensing device which can be a nozzle, a multiplicity of nozzles, a thread, a network of filaments, a piece of textile , Leather, sponge, ball, syringe, needle, cannula, capillary, etc.

- a controller preferably optical control
- the ball head is placed on the surface of the catheter balloon.
- the coating solution flows out of a cavity or a volume measuring device and flows onto the ball head.
- the ball head is rolled over the surface of the catheter balloon and thus travels the surface of the catheter balloon, wherein the coating solution applied to the ball head is transferred from the ball head to the surface of the catheter balloon.
- catheter balloons can be completely or even partially coated in the deflated or inflated state.
- a catheter balloon in the area of the widened folds can be targeted and coated, wherein the coating lies within the folds after deflation (ie, folding), so that a targeted coating of the folds can be achieved in this way ,

- the present invention relates in particular to coated catheter balloons which have an active substance-releasing coating.
- catheter balloons As catheter balloons, the conventional catheter balloons, bifurcation balloons as well as fold balloons or special balloons can be used.
- catheter balloons or "conventional catheter balloons” refers to those dilatable catheter balloons which generally serve to place a stent by means of dilatation. Further, non-dilatable catheter balloons are also referred to for stent placement, which are suitable for self-expanding stents and carry a removable protective cover over the stent to prevent premature stent expansion.
- expandable and recompressible catheter balloons with a protective sheath such as the non-dilatable catheter balloons for self-expanding stents are typically used without a stent to protect the coating on the catheter balloon from premature detachment.
- Bifurcation balloons refer to catheter balloons for treating a branch of a vessel, in particular a blood vessel. Such balloons may have two arms or consist of two interconnected or two separate balloons which are used simultaneously or sequentially to treat a vascular fissure or to place a stent or two stents in a vascular fissure or in close proximity to a vascular fissure.
- Balloons are referred to as "fold balloons", as described, for example, in EP 1189553 B1, EP 0519063 B1, WO 03/059430 A1 and WO 94/23787 A1 and which have "wrinkles" in the compressed state of the balloon that occur during expansion at least partially open the balloon.
- each angioplasty balloon can also be referred to as a fold balloon, since all such balloons are in the deflated state in folds.
- balloons are called balloons with pores, especially with micropores, which allow the passage of liquids and solutions in the expansion or the application of pressure.
- a balloon with micro-openings is disclosed in EP 0 383 429 A.
- special balloon is also used to refer to balloons with a specially designed surface, such as the catheter balloon with microneedles described in WO 02/043796 A2 or the catheter balloon disclosed in WO 03/026718 A1 with a micronous or nanorod surface for incorporating active substances with or without vehicles.
- the term “balloon” or “catheter balloon” basically refers to any expandable and re-compressible, as well as temporarily implantable, medical device typically used in conjunction with a catheter.
- coated balloons according to the invention can be used without a stent or with a crimped stent. Their use is not limited to initial treatment of stenotic vessels, they are also particularly well suited to successfully combat re-stenosis (e.g., stent restenosis) and prevent recurrent constriction.
- re-stenosis e.g., stent restenosis

- coating solutions which comprise the active substance together with at least one transport mediator in a suitable solvent which can be removed again after coating.
- transport mediators or transport accelerators are preferably used.
- These substances may additionally possess active substance properties themselves or also act as a suitable carrier material for an active substance.
- active substance properties themselves or also act as a suitable carrier material for an active substance.
- embodiments according to the invention which contain chemical compounds as transport mediators which accelerate or facilitate the uptake of active substances into the vessel wall, so that the active substance or the active ingredient combination is controlled during the short-term contact and in the intended dosage through the cell membrane can be channeled into the cell interior.
- transport mediators per se is not the subject of the present invention but the selection of very preferred transport mediators, which are particularly effective in connection with catheter balloons and with the special requirements for the short-term drug release, i.
- the transfer of the active substance to the vessel wall or the introduction of active ingredient into the tissue is particularly effective. promote the stenosed tissue.
- Common to all transport intermediates is the ability to ideally alter the thermodynamic state of the drug to increase the concentration gradient and enhance diffusion into the cells.
- the transport accelerator can also act as a carrier.
- the binding between active ingredient and carrier is already present and is dissolved after entry into the cell or it is formed on the outside of the membrane for the duration of the membrane passage and then dissolved again or carrier and drug form a unit that also exists inside the cell, but without the effectiveness of the drug negative affect.
- Such properties are possessed by substances which either interact directly with the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane, interact with receptors on the cell membrane, enter the interior of the cell via membrane transport proteins which act as carriers or as channels (ion pump), where they have the membrane potential and thus the membrane permeability of the membrane Change cells. This facilitates or accelerates the uptake of an active substance into the cells.
- oleic acid may affect the interaction with the lipid bilayer lipids while cyclomoterpenes such as D-limonene or menthol interact with the lipid bilayer hydrocarbons.
- the hydration of the polar head groups of the lipid bilayer is altered by urea or propylene glycol. Also, the elimination of hydrogen bonds causes accelerated drug uptake (e.g., dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, or dimethylacetamide). An increase in moisture in the cell wall by moisture-binding substances such. Pyrrolidone also enhances diffusion into the cell.
- polarity of the molecule is also important.
- polar and non-polar groups can be combined in a molecule similar to the phosphatidylcholine present in all cells as a membrane constituent.
- Another possibility consists in the mixture of two substances, each of which brings one of the properties and act in combination as membrane-permeable mixture.
- vasodilators include endogenous substances such as the kinins, e.g. Bradykinin, kallidin, histamine, and NOS synthase, which releases the vasodilating NO from L-arginine.
- kinins e.g. Bradykinin, kallidin, histamine, and NOS synthase
- Substances of plant origin such as the proven vasodilator extract of gingko biloba, DMSO, xanthones, flavonoids, terpenoids, vegetable and animal dyes, food colors, NO-releasing substances such.
- Pentaerythrityl tetranitrate (PETN), carbon monoxide (CO), contrast agents and contrast agent analogues also belong to this category.
- the transport accelerator or mediator causes an immediate limited by the contact time with the medical device transfer of the active ingredients in the
- the transport accelerator or mediator adheres to the removal of the medical device in combination with the active ingredient and possibly with a support supporting the carrier (or reservoir) on the cell walls. As a result, the diffusion of active ingredient into the cells can be retarded and controlled in a dose-controlled manner.
- Transport mediator, drug or drug combination as well as a possible matrix can be applied adhesively and / or covalently, partially or over the whole area on the medical device:
- Transport agent and drug adhere adhesively and / or covalently on the medical device or on an adhesive or covalently applied to the medical device matrix.
- Transport mediator and drug are covalently bonded to each other and adhere adhesively on the medical device or on a matrix which is applied adhesively or covalently on the medical device.
- Transport mediator and drug are covalently bonded to each other and adhere covalently on the medical device or on a matrix which is applied adhesively or covalently on the medical device.
- the effect of these substances is not limited to the transport properties, but they also have a positive healing effect.
- nitric oxide produced by the cell itself not only acts as a vasodilator, but also has an anti-proliferative effect.
- all NO donors simultaneously act as antiproliferativa and as vasodilators.
- Combinations with other antiproliferative, cytotoxic and cytostatic, antiinflammatory and also antithrombotic agents can be used here to potentiate or supplement the accompanying ability to act.
- the medical balloon catheters according to the invention, with or without a stent are used to prevent or reduce restenosis, in particular also in-stent restenosis.
- the temporary short-term implants are particularly suitable for the treatment and prophylaxis of vascular diseases, which arise due to a decrease in wall shear stress or possibly simultaneous strain-induced increase in leukocyte adhesion and immigration. Such processes often occur at vascular branches.
- the vascular implants of the invention are capable of increasing wall shear stress and of strengthening or activating smooth muscle cells (SMC) or vascular endothelium, thereby reducing platelet adhesion and diapathesis of leukocytes present in the bloodstream Measure be reduced. This counteracts inflammatory processes and avoids, for example, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, especially Crohn's disease as well as arteriosclerosis, stenosis or restenosis.
- Transport agent and active substance are identical
- Transport mediator and active substance are not identical, support each other in their effect
- the substance should not be so volatile that the substance is no longer or only diminished on the balloon in a short time. This is because the product properties would be changed in such a way that a no longer defined and controllable ratio of transport mediator to active ingredient would be created, which would severely question or render impossible the usability of such a medical device. Not least must also be given a mandatory minimum storage capacity. Under these conditions, substances that have a boiling point below 100 ° C can no longer be used because the guarantee of a stable, defined product is no longer guaranteed. Therefore, substances which are suitable as transport intermediates and which have a boiling point above 150 ° C. and thus have suitable temperature stability are particularly preferred.
- hydrophobic or predominantly lipophilic molecules such as the phospholipids provided with a hydrophilic head and a long hydrophobic tail of fatty acids, can be used here.
- phospholipids and sphingolipids, cetimides and cetyl alcohols are very suitable, since these are membrane components, so that membrane components are to be regarded as natural penetration enhancers, since they strive for the membrane dressing.
- the above statements show that a person skilled in a variety of very different compounds can select and use as transport agents, as many substance classes could theoretically act as a transport agent and just because of the large number of possible substances, the expert can not recognize which work really well and which substance groups the Others are really superior because the requirements placed on the transport mediator, especially with the balloon catheters are much more special than, for example, in some transdermal formulations.
- the present invention pertains to a selection of particular transport agents and therefore may be referred to as a selection invention, and should be evaluated in this way also in terms of novelty and inventive step.

- the non-resorbable stent is coated with a drug-releasing carrier system.
- Variant [C] comprises a resorbable uncoated stent and variant [D] is a catheter balloon with a resorbable drug-eluting stent.
- the variant [A] offers an ideal system a severely narrowed body passage such as biliary tract, esophagus, urinary tract, Pancreas, kidney, pulmonary, trachea, small intestine and colon, and in particular to keep blood vessels open with a permanent stent, which has no coating, but still need not be dispensed with an active ingredient application.

- active substance or active substance mixture the above-mentioned active substances and in particular Paclitaxel and / or Rapamycin can be used.
- the catheter balloon is coated with drug with or without a carrier system such that the balloon coating extends beyond both stent ends and preferably extends beyond 10-20% of the total length of the stent beyond an end of the stent.
- the active agent is also transferred to the vascular area at both ends of the stent, where the stent is no longer sufficient and it becomes Transfer active substance over the entire surface of the vessel wall, which lies between the widening or expanded stent struts.
- This embodiment has the advantage that the stent surface has no active substance which inhibits or kills the cells, in particular the smooth muscle cells, which directly communicate with the stent surface.
- enough active substance is applied to the interstices between the stent struts, so that it is precisely the too rapid overgrowth of the stent which begins in the interstices of the stent struts and continues into the interior of the stent and leads to in-stent restenosis a controlled amount is reduced.
- a drug-coated stent emits the active substance only from its surface and not from the interstices of the stent struts or at the ends of the stent or the region beyond, and moreover to the adjacent tissue, which is not intended to be inhibited or killed, according to the variant [A] the active ingredient applied there as widely as possible, where it is needed.

- the drug coverage of the vessel wall be a few millimeters beyond the end of the stent to adequately accompany the end portions of the stent within the vessel Supply active ingredient.
- the catheter balloon is coated according to the invention and then an uncoated stent is crimped onto the balloon.
- variant [B] can be obtained by crimping a nonabsorbable stent onto a balloon as in variant [A] and then coating the stent and balloon with an active ingredient according to the invention.

- a catheter balloon with a crimped stent is coated at the same time, it is preferable to use a solution of the active substance and of the at least one transport mediator in a solvent which acts as little as possible on the catheter balloon, but is preferably wetting and is also thin enough to move between the struts of the crimped stent to flow in the compressed state.
- This embodiment is suitable for spontaneous release of relatively much drug because the interstices of the stent struts and the interstices between the inner surface of the stent and the surface of the catheter balloon serve as a drug reservoir.
- the difference to the variant [A] consists mainly in the administrable amount of active ingredient, as can be applied to the stent and catheter balloon according to the previously described method, a significantly larger amount of an active ingredient or drug mixture.
- hydrophobic drugs such as e.g. Paclitaxel solutions of e.g. Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), chloroform, ethanol, acetone, methyl acetate and hexane and their mixtures or e.g. Rapamycin in Essigklareethyiester, methanol / ethanol mixtures, ethanol / water mixtures or in ethanol.

For example, in the center of the catheter balloon, a greater concentration of drug may be applied or at one or both ends of the catheter balloon or in the middle and at one or both ends.
- a higher concentration of active compound can be applied than on the remaining surface.
- the stent must receive special attention, especially in the early phase after implantation, as these transitional areas are more risky. Any variations are conceivable here.
- a hemocompatible layer can be adhesively or preferably covalently applied to the uncoated surface of the medical device or crosslinked, e.g. immobilize with glutaraldehyde on the surface of the medical device.
- a layer of this type which does not activate blood coagulation makes sense, since it increases the hemocompatibility of the medical device surface and reduces the danger of thrombosis.
- This coating step is particularly useful especially if the short-term implant is to be only partially coated.
- the non-drug-coated area thus advantageously has a non-coagulating non-activating, athrombogenic surface and thus ensures a significantly higher safety during and after contact of the medical device with the blood.

It is irrelevant whether the catheter balloon is fixed and the dispenser moves along the fold or the dispenser is fixed and moves relative to the catheter balloon or even catheter balloon and dispenser both move relative to each other. Should the catheter balloon and dispenser move relative to one another, then movement on a straight line in the opposite direction is preferred.
- a medium to thick viscous active ingredient-containing composition is preferably delivered in the form of a paste or a gel or an oil in the interior of the fold.
- the viscosities of preferred solutions are between 10 1 to 10 6 mPa ⁇ s, preferably between 10 2 to 10 5 mPa ⁇ s and particularly preferably between 10 3 to 10 4 mPa ⁇ s.

- the catheter balloon is in the process of filling the folds in the compressed, i. deflated condition. Even a partial or minor inflation of the catheter balloon is usually not required to open the folds a little. Nevertheless, the filling of the wrinkles can occur with a slight inflation of the catheter balloon of a maximum of 10% of the diameter provided during the dilatation.
- the filling of the pleats can also be done with a slight expansion of the pleats by applying 100 kPa (1 bar) overpressure, preferably 50 kPa (0.5 bar) overpressure, to slightly widen the pleats.
- this coating process can also be carried out with low-viscosity active substance-containing compositions, but is more suitable for oily compositions as well as for highly concentrated salt solutions.

- This rotation of the fold balloon may be particularly advantageous in the use of oily or pasty drug-containing compositions to ensure a uniform distribution of the drug-containing composition in the folds as well as on the inner surface of the folds.
- the term “coating” also primarily refers to the coating of the inner wrinkles surfaces, wherein the entire interior of the wrinkle is usually not filled with drug-containing composition or after drying with the remaining composition.
- the term “filling” rather the complete filling of the wrinkle interior with drug-containing composition.
- additives substances with high boiling points, such as oils, are used as additives, a more or less complete filling of the wrinkles is possible, provided that no appreciable amounts of volatile substances are present in the active substance-containing composition.
- additives is optional.
- This spraying method or syringe method is particularly suitable for introducing active ingredient-containing compositions into the folds of catheter fold balloons, which can not be applied to a catheter balloon, let alone inserted into the folds, by means of conventional dipping or spraying methods.
- the oily and paste-like coatings and fillings have the advantage that these active substance-containing compositions do not completely dry, but largely retain their consistency. Therefore, it is preferable to use coating solutions which do not become completely hard in air or under a protective gas atmosphere at normal pressure, i.
- coating solutions which after removal of the solvent or solvent mixture optionally used have a melting point or solidification point less than 20 ° C preferably less than 30 ° C and also have a thick viscous, oily or paste-like consistency, so that even when storing the coated catheter balloon over several months For up to a year, the coating does not run out of the folds.
- a solvent to be removed is not mandatory, so that a physiologically acceptable solvent can be used, such as polyethylene glycol, glycerol, propylene glycol or the like, which is not removed and remains in the coating and the coating in the wrinkles for the duration the shelf life of coated medical devices is oily or pasty.
- a physiologically acceptable solvent such as polyethylene glycol, glycerol, propylene glycol or the like, which is not removed and remains in the coating and the coating in the wrinkles for the duration the shelf life of coated medical devices is oily or pasty.

- the positive property of dissolving plaque or counteracting the deposition of plaque is itself biodegraded thereafter, without releasing physiologically harmful degradation products.
- This system perfectly solves the problem of firstly applying a coating to a catheter balloon so securely that it is not washed away by the bloodstream or transferred to it by touching the vessel wall during insertion, and secondly, at the site of action during dilatation a relatively short time, ie enough drug is transferred to the vessel wall within 30 to 300 seconds, ie as little as possible coating remains on the catheter balloon and as much as possible, ie at least 50% of the coating is transferred to the vessel wall to effectively counteract the formation of restenosis ,
- Such systems according to the invention can be prepared not only by the spraying method but also by the other coating methods described herein.
- a plurality of dispensing openings in series are pushed or brought under the fold of the fold balloon and at the same time an active ingredient-containing composition is dispensed from the plurality of dispensing openings into the respective fold.
- the dispenser preferably consists of 2 to 10 nozzles or dispensing openings, which are arranged at preferably uniform intervals along the longitudinal direction of the folds.
- This dispenser is then inserted under the fold of the catheter balloon and the respective fold is filled or coated by simultaneous delivery of the drug-containing composition from the nozzles or other delivery ports.
- the filling of a fold takes about 5 to 80 seconds, preferably about 15 to 60 seconds and more preferably about 25 to 45 seconds with a pleat length of 10 mm and the use of 4 dispensing openings.
- the discharge openings are preferably also located substantially in the middle of the cavity under the folds.
- it is not necessary that the dispensing device is moved in the fold of the catheter balloon relative to the fold longitudinal direction.
- the catheter balloon and dispenser are fixed during filling or coating, but movement along the longitudinal direction of the fold is possible. If a relative movement is provided, the distance for the movement is preferably not greater than the distance between two nozzles or discharge openings of the dispenser.
- the dispensing device comprises or consists of at least 2 and a maximum of 10 dispensing openings or nozzles or the like and preferably from 3 to 6 and more preferably from 4 or 5 dispensing openings or nozzles or the like, which are preferably evenly distributed over a distance of 10 mm.
- the dispenser has 2 to 10 nozzles or similar openings which are capable of uniformly dispensing or evenly spraying the active ingredient-containing composition into the fold.
- the catheter balloon is in compressed, i. deflated condition. Even a partial or minor inflation of the catheter balloon is usually not required to open the folds a little. Nevertheless, the filling of the wrinkles can occur with a slight inflation of the catheter balloon of a maximum of 10% of the diameter provided during the dilatation.
- the filling of the pleats can also be done with a slight expansion of the pleats by applying 100 kPa (1 bar) overpressure, preferably 50 kPa (0.5 bar) overpressure, to slightly widen the pleats.
- the catheter balloon is rotated, so that the next fold to be coated preferably lies upwards and preferably horizontally. The wrinkle filling or folding coating process is now repeated.
- the drying is preferably carried out by evaporation of the solvent.
- this method it is also possible to simultaneously fill or coat two, more than two or all of the folds of a catheter balloon, if the consistency of the drug-containing composition permits this, i. the consistency is not so thin that the composition leaks out of the non-horizontal folds.
- a corresponding circular array of dispensers corresponding to the number of folds is provided around the preferably vertically disposed catheter balloon, and by rotation the dispensing openings are passed under the folds, where concurrent delivery of the drug-containing composition occurs.
- the final drying takes place.
- it is of course not necessary that all folds of the catheter fold balloon be filled, but the filling of all wrinkles is the common and preferred embodiment, since during dilation in the shortest possible time a maximum amount of drug to be transferred to the vessel wall.
- the drying of the last wrinkles i. the content of the last fold preferably without vacuum under atmospheric pressure by evaporation of the solvent.
- This predrying can be followed by final drying, which according to the invention is carried out with a rotating catheter balloon. If required or desired, vacuum can also be applied during the rotation. This particular drying process is described in more detail following the coating process of the invention.
- a particularly preferred method for the entire surface coating as well as for the targeted coating or filling of the folds is the so-called dragging process or droplet dragging process.
- This method makes it possible to coat a catheter balloon in the folded state with a liquid drug-containing composition over its entire circumference inside and outside the fold.
- the balloon is approximated and then a volume of the drug-containing composition is metered to form a drop at the tip of the delivery device that is in contact with both the metering device and the balloon.
- the metering device may preferably be lengthened with a thin wire, thread or sponge-like aid at the outlet end, so that the liquid contact between the metering device and the balloon is made and maintained via this aid when approaching.
- a dispensing needle with a side opening or a fork-shaped extension.
- the droplet By lateral movement of the dosing device along the longitudinal direction of the balloon relative to the rotating balloon, the droplet is entrained and, per distance traveled, a certain amount of the drug-containing composition dries as a thin film on the swept area.
- the droplet size is maintained by adding the drug-containing composition until the target dosage is reached. The movement is maintained until the entire target area is coated and no fluid is left on the balloon surface.
- the balloon can be pre-wetted with suitable solvent, since the folds are already filled with liquid and the capillary effect does not fill the drop sucks or possibly the better adhesion of the filling material on the balloon material may meet.
- a particularly preferred embodiment is therein, at the tip of the dispenser or to guide or fasten, by the dispenser or at least through the terminal opening of the dispenser, a thread or wire which then serves to contact the balloon surface without the tip of the dispenser contacting the balloon.
- This thread or wire is made of a material that can not damage the balloon material.
- a thread or wire may also be a sponge or sponge-like container, a piece of textile or a correspondingly thin-sized piece of leather or a bundle of hair or bristles are used.
- these means consist of materials which do not damage the catheter balloon, ie are neither sharp nor angular or emit corrosive, basic, acidic or sticky substances or chemicals which dissolve, dissolve, decompose, stiffen, scratch, the polymer of the catheter balloon or can cut.
- the tip of the dispenser can be kept at a certain distance from the balloon surface and yet controlled via the contact device in the form of thread, wire, sponge, leather strip, bristle or textile piece of the drops and the movement of the drop relative to the balloon surface and can be controlled.
- a preferred embodiment consists of a horizontally located and rotating balloon with a top-mounted and moving along the longitudinal axis of the balloon dispenser. In this embodiment, a spiral coating of the entire surface of the catheter balloon takes place.
- the movement of the catheter balloon in a horizontal position takes place at intervals. With the balloon in place, the dispenser will move along the longitudinal direction of the catheter balloon in an approximately straight line from one end to the other and back again, rotating the balloon a few degrees as the dispenser reaches the distal or proximal end of the catheter balloon. This embodiment results in a linear coating of the entire balloon surface.
- This method also has the great advantage that the tip of the dispensing device, which is usually made of hard material, does not touch the balloon material, as in the case of the drag-drag method, and therefore there is no damage to the catheter balloon.
- the suture is pulled horizontally across the balloon surface along the longitudinal direction of the balloon axis, delivering a rapidly drying trace of drug-containing solution.
- this method is not limited to an embodiment with a thread, but it can also simultaneously several threads are moved across the balloon surface, in which case the balloon is preferably arranged vertically.
- the threads can also be connected to each other or form a network. In this case, the threads are connected to at least one dispensing device, which continuously supplies the threads or the net with a solution containing active ingredient.
- This method is thus suitable for complete and partial coating of the balloon surface. If, on the other hand, only the wrinkles are to be filled or coated, it is possible to insert a thread into the fold at least partially or to insert it into the fold during folding of the balloon and to allow the active ingredient-containing solution to flow into the fold via this thread, wherein after filling the Fold the thread is preferably removed again.
- the targeted filling of the wrinkles is also particularly a combination of pipetting and thread drag method, wherein the dispenser over the thread such a large amount of drug-containing solution is delivered at the proximal or distal end in the unfilled fold of an inflated catheter balloon, that the capillary effect Pull the solution into the fold.
- the drip drag method as well as the thread drag method both elegantly solve the problem of coating or filling the balloon surface as well as the targeted folds of the balloon with a defined amount of active ingredient without damaging the balloon material.
- the dispensing device can have a measuring device which records or indicates the dispensed amount of active ingredient-containing solution.
- these methods are particularly suitable for coating and / or filling the folds of a balloon in the deflated (folded) state, which is particularly demanding since the balloon surface of a collapsed balloon is not uniform and the usual uniform body coating techniques have only corresponding problems can be applied.
- differences in distance between the surface of the balloon and the dispensing device are elegantly compensated in the drag dragging and dragging process by the contact device in the form of thread, wire, sponge, leather strip, bristle or textile piece.
- a preferred variation of the droplet drag process is to use a coating head which is spherical.
- the ball has a diameter so that it just can not fall out of the outlet opening of the coating container. It closes the vessel completely so that no coating solution can escape between the sphere and the vessel wall. If pressure is exerted on this ball by the contact with the object to be coated, the ball pushes into the container according to the variably exerted pressure and the coating solution can escape between the ball and the vessel wall of the coating container. With simultaneous movement of either the coating container or the object to be coated and the desired angle to each other, the ball rolls on the surface and ensures a particularly uniform coating of the surface.
- the various objects can be faithfully coated because the ball can roll over the function of the adjustable pressure and angle, the surface as a sensor and thus offers particularly high variability in terms of.
- This type of coating is very well applicable, especially with catheter balloons, since each catheter balloon has a different surface design, is uneven and does not resemble a balloon surface of the other.
- a preferably optically controlled ballpoint pen coating process offers the possibility to uniformly coat arbitrarily different and uneven and uneven surfaces.
- the ball head for the transfer of the coating solution has the advantage that it does not damage the catheter balloon surface and the ball head or ball can be made of a soft or rubbery material such as rubber, silicone or polymers of similar consistency which is even more gentle on the balloon surface is compared to a metal ball.
- the coating device can be configured such that a three-dimensional movement is possible, so that the entire catheter balloon can be coated without even settling or restoring the ball head once. After a serpentine descending of the balloon surface to be coated, the ball head of the coating device again reaches the starting point, meanwhile the initially coated webs have dried and another can be applied to the first coating layer, whereby coating and drying operations can be carried out without interrupting the entire coating process.
- the coated or filled catheter balloons may be dried in the rotating state after filling or coating each fold or after coating or filling all folds or pleats to be coated, unless all pleats are to be coated or filled , This is usually indicated in the inventive method as step f).
- the active ingredient-containing composition is thereby dried and moreover distributed evenly in the folds as well as on the surface within the folds.
- Rotary drying is particularly suitable for oily or viscous active ingredient-containing composition to achieve a uniform distribution of the composition in the respective fold, these coatings are not dry, but retain their viscous, oily, gelatinous or pasty consistency, which also desired and is very preferred.
- vacuum can be applied during the rotation of the catheter balloon in order to achieve intensive drying of the active substance-containing composition.
- the direction of rotation is decisive.
- the direction of rotation is in the direction of the fold openings, when viewed from inside the fold.
- the catheter balloon is rotated as a paddle wheel of a bucket wheel excavator, so that the drug-containing composition is pressed into the interior of the fold due to the rotational force.

- coated medical devices are useful for preventing, reducing or treating stenosis, restenosis, arteriosclerosis, atherosclerosis, and all other forms of vascular occlusion or vessel narrowing of passageways or exits.
- the catheter balloons without stents coated according to the invention are particularly suitable for the treatment of in-stent restenosis, i. for treating a new vasoconstriction within an already implanted stent, which is preferably not bioresorbable.
- in-stent restenosis setting another stent within an already-existing stent is particularly problematic since the vessel usually can not be expanded sufficiently by the second stent.
- the drug application by means of balloon dilatation offers an ideal treatment option, since this treatment can be repeated several times, if necessary, and can achieve the same or significantly better therapeutic results than the re-stent implantation.
- the catheter balloons coated according to the invention without a crimped stent are particularly suitable for treating small vessels, preferably small blood vessels.
- small vessels are those with a vessel diameter less than 2.5 mm, preferably less than 2.2 mm.

- the active substance-containing coating present on the short-term implant has a higher affinity for the vessel wall than for the implant surface, so that an optimal transfer of the active substance to the destination can take place. This is done very well for all pasty, gel or oily coatings.
- a coated or uncoated stent can form a system with the balloon catheter depending on the individual case of need.
- the other aids such. the imaging agents zusetzbar if necessary.
- the contact time is already sufficient to apply a therapeutic amount of the paclitaxel deposited by the spray technique in amorphous form to and into the cell wall together with the at least one transport mediator.
- a stent made hemocompatible with the semisynthetic oligosaccharide and likewise coated with paclitaxel serves here as a reservoir for elution of further amounts of active compound provided over a relatively long period of time.
- paclitaxel Due to the amorphous consistency of paclitaxel on the stent and catheter balloon, obtained by the special spraying method, paclitaxel is not flushed or washed away from the surface of the balloon during insertion of the catheter so that the desired amount of drug arrives at the target site and here via dilatation is delivered to the vessel wall. Due to the simultaneous coating of the stent and catheter balloon is also a complete vascular coverage with active ingredient.
