MULTIPLE DRUG-ELUTING CORONARY ARTERY STENT FOR PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY ARTERY INTERVENTION

摘要

The present invention relates to a combination of agents, including an anti-proliferative agent, an anti-inflammatory agent, an anti-growth factor, and an extracellular matrix (ECM) molecule coated on a stent to prevent acute and subacute thrombosis, enhance endothelial in-growth, and prevent neointimal hyperplasia, and/or suppress neovascularization, and thereby reduce restenosis rates for drug eluting stents. The present invention also relates to methods of using such multiple drug eluting stents for the treatment of heart disease and other vascular conditions.
