  • Publication number: 20210128463
    Abstract: Drug delivery devices and methods of controlled drug delivery to a patient are provided. The drug delivery device may include one or two microchip elements, each of which has a body portion with one or more drug release apertures in fluid communication with at least one containment reservoir. The drug release apertures are closed off by one or more reservoir caps which can be electrically activated to open the drug release apertures. The drug delivery device also includes (i) a drug formulation disposed in the at least one containment reservoir, and (ii) at least one drug-permeable membrane. In some cases, an outer housing is spaced a distance from an exterior wall of the body portion of the microchip element, the outer housing includes the at least one drug-permeable membrane, and a depot space is defined between the drug-permeable membrane and the exterior wall of the body portion of the microchip element.

  • Publication number: 20090130167
    Abstract: Implantable drug delivery devices are provided which are adapted to be installed adjacent to at least a portion of an orthopedic prosthetic device implanted on a surgically prepared bone section of a patient. For example, the prosthetic device may be a hip joint replacement or knee joint replacement. The drug delivery device may include a body having a core formed from a non-biodegradable material formed in the shape of a sleeve and having an inner surface and an outwardly directed outer surface, wherein the outer surface has a drug formulation for release thereof into the body of the animal following implantation of the prosthetic device within the body of the animal. The outer surface may define one or more pockets for holding the drug formulation.
