摘要:
Described herein are implant devices comprising at least one exposed biodegradable inner core surface, the inner core being surrounding partially by a membrane sheath which comprises a biocompatible polymer. A bioactive agent can be released from the inner core.
摘要:
Described herein are implant devices comprising various configurations of bioactive agent loading which can be selected and used to tailor a particular bioactive agent release profile from the implant device.
摘要:
Described herein are terpolymer compositions, kits comprising the compositions, implant devices comprising the compositions, and methods of making and using same, including point of use methods.
摘要:
Described here are paranasal sinus devices for treating paranasal sinus conditions. The devices include a cavity member, ostial member, and nasal portion. One or more of the cavity member, ostial member, and nasal portion may deliver an active agent for sustained release to treat the paranasal sinus condition. Exemplary paranasal sinus conditions are sinus inflammation due to functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) and rhinosinusitis.
摘要:
Effective treatments of pain and/or inflammation for extended periods of time are provided. Through the administration of an effective amount of sulindac or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof at or near a target site, one can relieve pain and/or inflammation caused by diverse sources, including but not limited to spinal disc herniation (i.e. sciatica), spondilothesis, stenosis, discongenic back pain and joint pain, as well as pain that is incidental to surgery. When appropriate formulations are provided within biodegradable polymers, this relief can be continued for at least three days, at least twenty-five days. In some embodiments, the relief can be for at least fifty days, at least one hundred days, at least one hundred and thirty-five days or at least one hundred and eighty days.
摘要:
Effective treatments of pain and inflammation are provided. Through the administration of an effective amount of fluocinolone at or near a target site, one can reduce, prevent or treat inflammation and pain and autoimmune disorders. In various embodiments, fluocinolone formulations may be provided within biodegradable polymers to reduce, prevent or treat sciatic pain and/or inflammation. In various embodiments, prevent transplant rejection for at least twenty-five days. In some embodiments, the pain relief can be for at least fifty days, at least one hundred days, at least one hundred and thirty-five days or at least one hundred and eighty days.
摘要:
The disclosed processes for forming microparticles utilize low volumes of processing water while still providing microparticles having low residual solvent levels. The processes are adaptable to both continuous and batch processes using oil/water or water/oil or water/oil/water or oil/water/oil emulsions.
