  • Patent number: 10485763
    Abstract: The present invention provides: a composition for transarterial chemoembolization, comprising two types of biodegradable microbeads having different anticancer drug release characteristics; and a preparation method therefor. According to the present invention, a composition for transarterial chemoembolization exhibiting a desired anticancer drug release characteristic can be effectively prepared by controlling the mixing ratio of first and second biodegradable microbeads. Therefore, the present invention can be usefully applied to the transarterial chemoembolization of liver cancer.

  • Patent number: 10441686
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a stent having a functional material coated on a cell space (safe coating space) thereof. The stent of the present invention, as a stent having a space for mounting and coating drugs and other materials for expanding the functions of the stent, is highly feasible as an actual product in consideration of the structure, transfer device, and manufacturing process of the stent as a whole, and secures a coating space (safe coating space) of a functional material in a cell of the stent through quantitative and qualitative modelling. Since an additional increase in volume does not occur even when the stent is press-mounted in a transfer device as a result of mounting a radio marker or a drug in the coating space, the stent of the present invention has excellent radio opacity without obstructing the loading and deployment of the stent, and may stably mount a great amount of a functional drug.

  • Publication number: 20190282382
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a wire-mesh stent having a radius of the outmost boundary defined by the following Formula 1 and consisting of a combination of a hook and a cross, a method for manufacturing the same and a method for patterning a multi-alterable structure thereof: Rob=Rtb/(COS(180/Nxo))??Formula 1 The present disclosure microscopically analyzes and quantifies a basic structure of a wire-mesh stent from a viewpoint of integrating, rather than separating, a stent and a delivery device which are main components of a stent system, especially in order to ensure the loadability that can be applied to the delivery device, which is a practical necessity. Moreover, the present disclosure forms a multi-alterable structure pattern that is transformable to various application structures in order to realize a required specific performance, instead of one specific stent structure.

  • Publication number: 20190274957
    Abstract: The present invention relates to: biodegradable microbeads with improved anticancer drug adsorptivity, containing albumin and dextran sulfate; a preparation method therefor; and a method for treating cancer using the same. The microbeads of the present invention is prepared from a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer so as to be safe to the human body, and can effectively inhibit the growth of a tumor by effectively blocking a blood vessel which supplies nutrition to a liver tumor and continuously releasing an anticancer drug adsorbed on surfaces of the beads. Therefore, the present invention can be useful for liver cancer chemoembolization.
