Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a drug-loaded balloon catheter system. BACKGROUND

[0002] Angioplasty can open calcified lesions in the arterial wall, which is one of the main ways of arterial stenosis revascularization. However, the expansion of the blood vessel will damage the blood vessel wall, thereby causing thrombosis and the release of growth factors, which in turn leads to the occurrence of vascular restenosis or reocclusion. At present, the above problems are mainly solved by implanting a stent into the blood vessel. The existing vascular stent is mainly divided into two categories. One is made of biocompatible metal, but it is easy to cause thrombosis and immune circle, and this permanent stent may interfere with subsequent treatment, such as corrosion perforation and potential aneurysm. The other is a biodegradable stent, which solves the problem of permanent existence of the metal stent, but the degradation products will cause serious inflammatory reaction, and at the same time cause the atrophy of the muscle elastic elements of the arterial wall, leading to arterial dilation.

[0003] In recent years, in situ formation of natural vascular stent in blood vessels has become a new treatment method. It mainly applies photosensitive compounds and specific wavelength light at a specified position of the blood vessel. The photosensitive compounds can be excited under specific light, thereby inducing the rapid combination of collagen and elastin in the blood vessel wall, forming a vascular stent in situ, and achieving the healing and repair of the blood vessel.

[0004] The drug-loaded balloon catheter is an important interventional instrument for delivering photosensitive compounds to a specified position of the blood vessel. It mainly loads photosensitive compounds on the surface of the balloon body in the form of a coating, and then releases the drug by delivering the balloon body to the specified position of the blood vessel. However, part of the drug is easily lost during the delivery process, and the drug release process is not easy to control, which affects the treatment effect. SUMMARY

[0042] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0043] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being "connected" with another component, it can be directly connected with the other component or there can be a middle component. When a component is referred to as being "disposed on" another component, it can be directly disposed on the other component or there can be a middle component.

[0044] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used in the description of the application herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 , 2An embodiment of the present application provides a balloon catheter system 20, which comprises a balloon body 10, a catheter 20, a perfusion device 30 and a light source device 40; wherein the balloon body 10 has opposite inflated and contracted states suitable for interventional delivery, the outer wall of the balloon body 10 is loaded with a coating 12 containing a first active cross-linking agent and a water-soluble sustained-release layer 13 wrapping the coating 12, and the balloon wall of the balloon body 10 has a porous structure 11; the catheter 20 has opposite proximal and distal ends 21 and 22, wherein the distal end 22 is in communication with the balloon body 10; the perfusion device 30 is used to supply a second active cross-linking agent to the balloon body 10 in the form of a fluid 60 through the proximal end of the catheter 20; and the light source device 40 is used to apply light to the first and second active cross-linking agents.

[0046] The first active cross-linking agent is at least one of lysine-PEG-lysine, tyrosine-PEG-tyrosine, polylysine, lysine-tryptophan copolymer, glycine-carboxymethyl cellulose-glycine, tryptophan-carboxymethyl cellulose-tryptophan, and phenylalanine and tyrosine modified polyethyleneimine. The lysine-PEG-lysine and the tyrosine-PEG-tyrosine refer to PEGs with corresponding amino acids at both ends; the glycine-carboxymethyl cellulose-glycine and the tryptophan-carboxymethyl cellulose-tryptophan refer to carboxymethyl celluloses with corresponding amino acids at both ends. The second active cross-linking agent is at least one of naphthalimide derivative, rose Bengal and riboflavin phosphate.

[0047] The first active cross-linking agent is equivalent to bridging between non-adjacent proteins, and under the light excitation condition of the first photoactivator, the amino group or polypeptide contained in the second active cross-linking agent is cross-linked with the collagen in the blood vessel wall 50. Whether the second photoactivator participates in the cross-linking reaction or not, the second photoactivator can only promote the cross-linking between adjacent collagen / elastin through light activation. After the first active cross-linking agent is added, the length of the chain can make the proteins far away from each other form covalent bond cross-linking, increase the cross-linking of the collagen in the blood vessel wall 50, form a natural blood vessel stent, and make the fibers of the blood vessel wall 50 more dense, thereby greatly improving the effect of angioplasty.

[0048] The experimental results prove that, generally, the second active cross-linking agent is applied to the blood vessel first, and then the first active cross-linking agent is applied, which can form better fibers. The reason may be that the second active cross-linking agent promotes the cross-linking between adjacent proteins, and the first active cross-linking agent promotes the cross-linking between non-adjacent proteins. If the first active cross-linking agent is applied first, the non-adjacent proteins are cross-linked first, which leads to the fact that most of the adjacent proteins cannot be cross-linked with each other, thereby affecting the cross-linking effect.

[0049] From the physical and chemical properties of the drug itself, the first active cross-linking agent is loaded in the form of coating 12, and the second active cross-linking agent is loaded in the form of fluid 60. In order to regulate the release of the two active cross-linking agents, a water-soluble sustained-release layer 13 is arranged on the surface of the coating 12. On the one hand, the water-soluble sustained-release layer 13 can reduce the damage of the first active cross-linking agent during the delivery of the balloon body 10, and on the other hand, it can delay the release of the first active cross-linking agent, and the delay time depends on the material and thickness of the water-soluble sustained-release layer 13. The water-soluble sustained-release layer 13 comprises a sustained-release material, which can be selected from one or more of polyethylene glycol 8000, polyethylene glycol 10000, polyethylene glycol 20000, povidone K90, povidone K20, shellac, iopromide, polysorbate sugar alcohol, and polyvinyl alcohol.

[0050] In an embodiment, the thickness of the water-soluble sustained-release layer 13 is 5-50 μm, for example, 20-40 μm, and for example, 20-30 μm. The greater the thickness, the longer the delay of the release of the first active cross-linking agent. Therefore, in the treatment of blood vessels, the second active cross-linking agent is first applied to the blood vessels by using the fluid 60 for a period of time, and during this period of time, the first active cross-linking agent is not released or partially released due to the wrapping of the water-soluble sustained-release layer 13. After this period of time, the first active cross-linking agent is completely exposed and released in large quantities. When the first active cross-linking agent is released, the fluid 60 containing the second active cross-linking agent can be continuously delivered to keep the balloon body 10 inflated until the release of the first active cross-linking agent is completed. Alternatively, after the delivery of the second active cross-linking agent is completed, the balloon body 10 is inflated with physiological saline to keep the balloon body under pressure, thereby ensuring the release of the first active cross-linking agent on the balloon body. According to the expected treatment effect, the application process of the first active cross-linking agent and the second active cross-linking agent can be regulated.

[0051] The balloon body 10 is made of a light-transmitting material, for example, nylon PA, PEBAX, polyethylene terephthalate PET, polyethylene PE, polypropylene PP, polyvinyl chloride PVC, and polycarbonate PC.

[0052] The coating amount of the first active cross-linking agent in the coating 12 is 1-5 μg / mm 2 , for example, 2-4 μg / mm 2 , relative to the unit surface area of the balloon. The thickness of the coating 12 is 5-20 μm, for example, 8-20 μm, and for example, 12-18 μm.

[0053] The solvent used by the second active cross-linking agent is water, and the pH is adjusted to form a buffer solution as needed. The concentration of the second active cross-linking agent in the fluid 60 is 0.1-30 mg / mL, for example, 15-20 mg / mL, and for example, 5-10 mg / mL.

[0054] The fluid 60 can also include a pharmaceutical agent, such as a cytostatic agent and / or an anti-proliferative agent. The cytostatic agent can be at least one of rapamycin, sirolimus, everolimus, zotarolimus, deforolimus, biolimus, umirolimus, and tacrolimus. The anti-proliferative agent can be at least one of paclitaxel, protaxel, and docetaxel. The concentration of the pharmaceutical agent in the fluid 60 can be 1-10 mg / mL, such as 2-8 mg / mL, and such as 2-5 mg / mL. The solvent for the pharmaceutical agent can be a mixture of water and polyethylene glycol, such as polyethylene glycol with a molecular weight of 8000, i.e., macrogol 8000.

[0055] The pore structure 11 affects the release of the fluid 60. In one embodiment, the pore size of the pore structure 11 is 3-16 μm, such as 3-10 μm, and such as 3-7 μm. The number of pores on the surface of the balloon body 10 can be 100-1000, such as 200-800, and such as 320-600.

[0056] To ensure the encapsulation effect of the coating 12, in one embodiment, the first active crosslinking agent is lysine-PEG-lysine and / or tyrosine-PEG-tyrosine, and the sustained release material is at least one of macrogol 8000, macrogol 10000, and macrogol 20000. For example, the sustained release material can be macrogol 8000:macrogol 10000 in a mass ratio of 1.25:1, and such as macrogol 8000:macrogol 20000 in a mass ratio of 2:1.

[0057] In another embodiment, the first active crosslinking agent is glycine-carboxymethylcellulose-glycine, tryptophan-carboxymethylcellulose-tryptophan, and polyethyleneimine modified with phenylalanine and tyrosine, and the sustained release material is at least one of povidone K90, povidone K20, and polyvinyl alcohol. For example, the sustained release material can be 35 mg / mL of povidone K90, and such as povidone K90:povidone K20 in a mass ratio of 1:4.

[0058] The light source device 40 includes a light source 41 and a light guide element 42. The catheter 20 element has a light source 41 input end connected to the light source 41 and a light emitting end. The light emitting end is located on the outer periphery of the balloon body 10 or inside the balloon body 10. Preferably, the light emitting end is located on the outer periphery of the balloon body 10, so that light can be applied to the blood vessel without passing through the balloon body 10. The light source device 40 is used in conjunction with the application of the first active crosslinking agent and the second active crosslinking agent to irradiate the blood vessel and promote the crosslinking of the tissue proteins.

[0059] The preparation of the drug-loaded balloon body 10 can form the coating 12 of the first active cross-linking agent and the water-soluble sustained-release layer 13 on the surface of the balloon coating 12 by spraying, soaking or rotary coating 12 process. The first active cross-linking agent and the water-soluble sustained-release layer 13 are respectively prepared into a coating 12 liquid by using a solvent in advance. The solvent can be a solvent including an organic solvent and water, and the organic solvent is at least one of isopropyl alcohol, ethanol, acetonitrile, methanol, ethyl acetate, and acetone, and the volume ratio of water and organic solvent is (0.05-0.5):1.

[0060] The catheter 20 has various structural types. In an embodiment, the catheter 20 includes an inner tube and an outer tube which are sleeved with each other, the balloon body 10 is fixed to the distal end of the outer tube and communicates with the inside of the outer tube, and the radial gap between the inner tube and the outer tube provides a fluid 60 channel. The elements of the catheter 20 can be fixed to the inner wall or the outer wall of the inner tube.

[0061] The drug-loaded balloon catheter 20 provided in the present application loads the first active cross-linking agent in the form of fluid 60 and the second active cross-linking agent in the form of coating 12, and sets the water-soluble sustained-release layer 13 on the outer surface of the coating 12, which can delay the release of the second active cross-linking agent, reduce the loss of drugs during delivery on the one hand, and regulate the release process of the two active cross-linking agents on the other hand, so that the blood vessel can fully absorb the two active cross-linking agents, and then form a dense fiber under the action of light in a specific wave band, i.e. a natural blood vessel stent, which is beneficial to improve the effect of blood vessel formation.
