Implantable medical devices having anti-restenotic coatings are disclosed. Specifically, implantable medical devices having coatings of aldose reductase (AR) inhibitors are disclosed. Preferred AR inhibitors are enumerated. The anti-restenotic medical devices include stents, catheters, micro-particles, probes and vascular grafts. Intravascular stents are preferred medical devices. The medical devices can be coated using any method known in the art including compounding the AR inhibitor with a biocompatible polymer prior to applying the coating. Moreover, medical devices composed entirely of biocompatible polymer-AR inhibitor blends are disclosed. Additionally, medical devices having a coating comprising at least one AR inhibitor in combination with at least one additional therapeutic agent are also disclosed. Furthermore, related methods of using and making the anti-restenotic implantable devices are also disclosed.
本研究公开了具有抗血管狭窄涂层的植入式医疗器械。具体而言,公开了具有醛糖还原酶(AR)抑制剂涂层的植入式医疗器械。本文列举了优选的 AR 抑制剂。抗血管再狭窄医疗器械包括支架、导管、微颗粒、探针和血管移植物。血管内支架是首选的医疗器械。这些医疗器械可以使用本领域已知的任何方法进行涂层,包括在涂覆前将 AR 抑制剂与生物相容性聚合物复合。此外,还公开了完全由生物相容性聚合物-AR 抑制剂混合物组成的医疗器械。此外,还公开了具有由至少一种 AR 抑制剂与至少一种额外治疗剂组合而成的涂层的医疗设备。此外,还公开了使用和制造抗再狭窄植入装置的相关方法。
