Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080226625Stable non- aqueous single phase viscous vehicles and formulations utlizing such vehicles - This invention relates to stable non-aqueous single phase viscous vehicles and to formulations utilizing such vehicles. The formulations comprise at least one beneficial agent uniformly suspended in the vehicle. The formulation is capable of being stored at temperatures ranging from cold to body temperature for long periods of time. The formulations are capable of being uniformly delivered from drug delivery systems at an exit shear rate of between about 1 to 1×1009-18-2008

The formulations comprise at least one beneficial agent uniformly suspended in the vehicle. The formulation is capable of being stored at temperatures ranging from cold to body temperature for long periods of time. The formulations are capable of being uniformly delivered from drug delivery systems at an exit shear rate of between about 1 to 1×1009-18-2008
20080317939Method and System for Irradiation of a Drug Eluting Implantable Medical Device - A method and system for modifying a drug delivery polymeric substrate for an implantable device, such as a stent, is disclosed.12-25-2008
20090125043TETHERED COIL FOR TREATMENT OF BODY LUMENS - Disclosed is an apparatus and a method for removable of undesired material from body lumens. The apparatus may be used for fragmenting or removing a thrombus or occlusion from a blood vessel. The apparatus includes first shape segments and second shape segments connected to form a coiled member. A longitudinally extending tether is positioned inside the first shape segments and outside the second shape segments along the length of the coil. Applying a proximal force on the tether produces a change in the shape of at least a portion of the coil from a first generally linear configuration to a second complex three dimensional shape. A method of using the apparatus to engage and remove, or fragment, the thrombus or occlusion is disclosed.05-14-2009
20090299390MULTISTRAND COIL FOR INTERVENTIONAL THERAPY - The embolic coil includes a microcoil and an elongated wire electrically connected to the microcoil for accelerating embolization of an aneurysm into which the embolic coil is placed. The microcoil is formed of a first metallic material having a first reduction potential, and the elongated wire is formed of a second metallic material having a second reduction potential lower than the first reduction potential of the first metallic material.12-03-2009
20110054612BONE IMPLANTS FOR THE TREATMENT OF INFECTION - Described herein are devices, systems and methods for treating disease and/or infection by the release of silver from an implant over an extended period of time. In particular, the devices described herein may be used to treat infections such as osteomyelitis by the controlled release of silver ions from multiple sites of an extended-use implant. This implant typically includes a plurality of arms that both anchor and help distribute the released ions within the tissue. Power may be applied to release the silver ions into the tissue.03-03-2011
20110160708STABLE NON-AQUEOUS SINGLE PHASE VISCOUS VEHICLES AND FORMULATIONS UTLIZING SUCH VEHICLES - This invention relates to stable non-aqueous single phase viscous vehicles and to formulations utilizing such vehicles. The formulations comprise at least one beneficial agent uniformly suspended in the vehicle. The formulation is capable of being stored at temperatures ranging from cold to body temperature for long periods of time. The formulations are capable of being uniformly delivered from drug delivery systems at an exit shear rate of between about 1 to 1×1006-30-2011

20110307053POLYMER METAL AND COMPOSITE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES - A device and a method of manufacturing an implantable medical device, such as a stent, are described herein. The device includes a metallic region composed of a bioerodable metal and a polymer region composed of a biodegradable polymer contacting the metallic region. The metallic region may erode at a different rate when exposed to bodily fluids than the polymer region when exposed to bodily fluids. In certain embodiments, the polymer region is an outer layer and the metallic region is an inner layer of the device.12-15-2011
