Implantable medical devices having anti-restenotic coatings are disclosed.
Specifically, implantable medical devices having coatings of certain
antiproliferative agents, particularly a certain PDGF receptor inhibitor,
are disclosed. The anti-restenotic PDGF receptor inhibitor is MLN-518,
and pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof. The anti-restenotic
medical devices include stents, catheters, micro-particles, probes and
vascular grafts. Intravascular stents are preferred medical devices. The
medical devices can be coated using any method known in the art including
compounding the PDGF receptor inhibitor with a biocompatible polymer
prior to applying the coating. Moreover, medical devices composed
entirely of biocompatible polymer-PDGF receptor inhibitor blends are
disclosed. Additionally, medical devices having a coating comprising at
least one PDGF receptor inhibitor in combination with at least one
additional therapeutic agent are also disclosed. Furthermore, related
methods of using and making the anti-restenotic implantable devices are
also disclosed.
