摘要:
A method of manufacturing a drug delivery system uses gas cluster ion beam irradiation on an outer surface of a member to determine one or more characteristics of the drug delivery system.
摘要:
In one embodiment, a drug delivery system and method provide a member including a combination of a drug substance and a polymer or other material, and an encapsulating layer formed in an outer surface of the member by gas cluster ion beam irradiation of the outer surface of the member, which encapsulating layer is adapted to determine one or more characteristics of the drug delivery system.

摘要:
A method for producing a drug delivery system provides a member including a combination of a drug substance and a polymer or other material; and forms a layer on a surface of the combination using gas cluster ion beam irradiation, which layer determines a release rate for the drug substance, wherein the layer is an encapsulating layer formed by densifying or carbonizing components of the drug or of the polymer or of the other material by the gas cluster ion beam irradiation.

摘要:
A method of controlling the drug release rate of a drug coated endovascular stent by depositing a drug material layer on the stent and then modifying the drug material using gas cluster ion beam irradiation to create a carbon matrix with interstices containing the original drug. The rate at which the drug elutes through the interstices can be controlled by processing parameters. Multiple layers may be employed to create time varying release rates.
