Linear Micro-patterned Drug Eluting Balloon (LMDEB) for Enhanced Endovascular Drug Delivery.

ABSTRACT: In-stent restenosis (ISR) often occurs after applying drug eluting stents to the blood vessels suffering from atherosclerosis or thrombosis. For treatment of ISR, drug eluting balloons (DEB) have been developed to deliver anti-proliferative drugs to the lesions with ISR. However, there are still limitations of DEB such as low drug delivery efficiency and drug loss to blood flow. Although most researches have focused on alteration of drug formulation for more efficient drug delivery, there are few studies that have attempted to understand and utilize the contact modality of DEB drug delivery. Here, we developed a linear micro-patterned DEB (LMDEB) that applied higher contact pressure to enhance drug stamping to vascular tissue. Ex vivo and in vivo studies confirmed that higher contact pressure from micro-patterns increased the amount of drug delivered to the deeper regions of vessel. Finite element method simulation also showed significant increase of contact pressure between endothelium and micro-patterns. Quantitative analysis by high performance liquid chromatography indicated that LMDEBs delivered 2.3 times higher amount of drug to vascular tissue in vivo than conventional DEBs. Finally, efficacy studies using both atherosclerotic and ISR models demonstrated superior patency of diseased vessels treated with LMDEB compared to those treated with DEB.

Project description:Paclitaxel coated balloon catheters (PCB) were developed as a polymer-free non-implantable alternative to drug eluting stents, delivering similar drug payloads in a matter of minutes. While PCB have shown efficacy in treating peripheral arterial disease in certain patient groups, restenosis rates remain high and there is no class effect. To help further optimize these devices, we developed a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging technique and computational modeling approach that provide insights into the coating micromorphology dependence of in vivo drug transfer and retention. PCBs coated with amorphous/flaky or microneedle coatings were inflated for 60 sec in porcine femoral arteries. Animals were euthanized at 0.5, 24 and 72 h and treated arteries processed for SEM to image endoluminal coating distribution followed by paclitaxel quantification by mass spectrometry (MS). Endoluminal surfaces exhibited sparse coating patches at 0.5 h, predominantly protruding (13.71 vs 0.59%, P < 0.001), with similar micro-morphologies to nominal PCB surfaces. Microneedle coating covered a 1.5-fold endoluminal area (16.1 vs 10.7%, P = 0.0035) owing to higher proximal and distal delivery, and achieved 1.5-fold tissue concentrations by MS (1933 vs 1298 μg/g, P = 0.1745) compared to amorphous/flaky coating. Acute longitudinal coating distribution tracked computationally predicted microindentation pressure gradients (r = 0.9, P < 0.001), with superior transfer of the microneedle coatings attributed to their amplification of angioplasty contact pressures. By 24 h, paclitaxel concentration and coated tissue areas both declined by >93% even as nonprotruding coating levels were stable between 0.5 and 72 h, and 2.7-fold higher for microneedle vs flaky coating (0.64 vs 0.24%, P = 0.0195). Tissue retained paclitaxel concentrations at 24-72 h trended 1.7-fold higher post treatment with microneedle coating compared to the amorphous/flaky coating (69.9 vs 39.9 μg/g, P = 0.066). Thus, balloon based drug delivery is critically dependent on coating micromorphologies, with superior performance exhibited by micromorphologies that amplify angioplasty pressures.

Project description:BackgroundCurrently, drug-eluting balloon (DEB) appears to be an attractive alternative option for the treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR). Nevertheless, the clinical outcomes of DEB have seldom been compared to those of new-generation drug-eluting stent (DES). Thus, this meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DEB compared to those of new-generation DES in the treatment of ISR.MethodsA comprehensive search of electronic databases including PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library up to November 2, 2017 was performed to identify pertinent articles comparing DEB to new-generation DES for the treatment of ISR. In addition, conference proceedings for the scientific sessions of the American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association, European Society of Cardiology, Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics, and EuroPCR were also searched. The primary endpoint was target lesion revascularization (TLR) at the longest follow-up. Dichotomous variables were presented as risk ratios (RR s) with 95% confidence intervals (CI s), while the overall RR s were estimated using the Mantel-Haenszel random-effects model.ResultsFive randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and eight observational studies involving 2743 patients were included in the present meta-analysis. Overall, DEB was comparable to new-generation DES in terms of TLR (RR = 1.24, 95% CI: 0.89-1.72, P = 0.21), cardiac death (RR = 1.55, 95% CI: 0.89-2.71, P = 0.12), major adverse cardiovascular event (RR = 1.21, 95% CI: 0.98-1.48, P = 0.07), myocardial infarction (RR = 1.12, 95% CI: 0.72-1.76, P = 0.62), and stent thrombosis (RR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.38-2.42, P = 0.92). However, DEB was associated with higher risk of all-cause mortality than new-generation DES (RR = 1.65, 95% CI: 1.09-2.50, P = 0.02). This was especially true in the real-world observational studies (RR = 1.79, 95% CI: 1.12-2.88, P = 0.02). In RCTs, however, no significant difference was found between the two treatment strategies in the risk of all-cause mortality.ConclusionsThe current meta-analysis showed that DEB and new-generation DES had comparable safety and efficacy for the treatment of ISR in RCTs. However, treatment with DEB was associated with higher risk of all-cause mortality in the real-world nonrandomized studies.
