Abstract

Disclosed herein are drug delivery medical devices. A polymer coating for a medical device is provided which comprises a minimum amount of a drug bonded to the polymer in the coating.

First claim

1 - 11 . (canceled)

12 . A method of treating restenosis, vulnerable plaque, or a vascular condition in a mammal comprising delivering to the mammal a bioabsorbable scaffold comprising a scaffold body and a coating on the scaffold body, the coating comprising a polymer, wherein the polymer comprises a lactide or lactic acid based polymer and novolimus conjugated to the lactide or lactic acid based polymer, wherein the amount of novolimus conjugated to the polymer is less than or equal to 0.35% (weight novolimus to weight polymer), as measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the bioabsorbable scaffold absorbs away anywhere from 5 months to 2 years after delivery.

14 . A method of manufacturing a bioabsorbable scaffold comprising forming a scaffold body and a coating on the scaffold body, the coating comprising a poly(D,L-lactide) polymer and novolimus conjugated to the polymer, wherein the manufacturing processes or standards are set, adjusted, selected and/or determined such that the amount of novolimus conjugated to the polymer is less than or equal to 0.35% (weight novolimus to weight polymer), as measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the amount of novolimus conjugated to the polymer is less than or equal to 0.30% (weight novolimus to weight polymer), as measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

16 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the amount of novolimus conjugated to the polymer is less than or equal to 0.1% (weight novolimus to weight polymer), as measured by Gel Permeation Chromatography with Refractive Index and Ultraviolet detection (GPC-RI/UV).

17 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the coating comprises novolimus which is not conjugated to the polymer.

18 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the novolimus is conjugated to the polymer via an ester linkage.

19 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the manufacturing processes or standards that are set, adjusted, selected and/or determined include one or a combination of solvent selection, drug and polymer dissolution parameters, spraying parameters, dipping parameters, inkjet printing parameters, annealing parameters, drying parameters, heating parameters, crimping parameters, sterilizing parameters, packaging, temperature, and/or humidity.

20 . A method of treating restenosis, vulnerable plaque, or a vascular condition in a mammal comprising delivering the bioabsorbable scaffold of claim 14 to the mammal.

21 . The method of claim 20 , wherein the bioabsorbable scaffold absorbs away anywhere from 5 months to 2 years after delivery.

22 . A method of manufacturing a bioabsorbable scaffold comprising forming a scaffold body and a coating on the scaffold body, the coating comprising a lactide or lactic acid based polymer and novolimus conjugated to the polymer, wherein the manufacturing processes or standards are set, adjusted, selected and/or determined such that the amount of novolimus conjugated to the polymer is less than or equal to 0.35% (weight novolimus to weight polymer), as measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

23 . The method of claim 22 , wherein the amount of novolimus conjugated to the polymer is less than or equal to 0.30% (weight novolimus to weight polymer), as measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

24 . The method of any of claim 22 , wherein the amount of novolimus conjugated to the polymer is less than or equal to 0.1% (weight novolimus to weight polymer), as measured by Gel Permeation Chromatography with Refractive Index and Ultraviolet detection (GPC-RI/UV).

25 . The method of claim 22 , wherein the coating comprises novolimus which is not conjugated to the polymer.

26 . The method of claim 22 , wherein the novolimus is conjugated to the polymer via an ester linkage.

27 . The method of claim 22 , wherein the manufacturing processes or standards that are set, adjusted, selected and/or determined include one or a combination of solvent selection, drug and polymer dissolution parameters, spraying parameters, dipping parameters, inkjet printing parameters, annealing parameters, drying parameters, heating parameters, crimping parameters, sterilizing parameters, packaging, temperature, and/or humidity.

28 . A method of treating restenosis, vulnerable plaque, or a vascular condition in a mammal comprising delivering the bioabsorbable scaffold of claim 22 to the mammal.

29 . The method of claim 28 , wherein the bioabsorbable scaffold absorbs away anywhere from 5 months to 2 years after delivery.
