20090197975 | COMPOSITIONS FORMULATED FOR SOLVENT-REGULATED DRUG RELEASE - This application relates to a composition comprising a mixture of different organic solvents formulated for controlled drug release. The release profile of the drug can be regulated by adjusting the compositional ratios of the solvents. In one embodiment of the invention a first solvent is water-soluble and a second solvent is water-insoluble. The first and second solvents are miscible and together form a solution containing the drug. The hydrophobicity of the composition can be adjusted by altering the relative amount of the second solvent. The composition also includes a solid lipid dissolved in the drug-containing solution. In aqueous environments the lipid may precipitate to form a thin membrane in an outer surface portion of the composition, thereby further regulating the release of the drug. The membrane is preferably renewable. That is, as the outermost portion of the lipid is biodegraded at a target location in vivo, additional outer portions of the lipid precipitate to renew the thin membrane. The composition may be formulated, for example, as a suspension, nanoparticle, microparticle, paste or thin film coating. In one particular embodiment, the composition may be applied to an implantable medical device, such as a cardiovascular stent. | 08-06-2009 |
