2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various attempts have been made to administer a pharmacologically active substance to a disease site using a balloon catheter. For example, attempts have been made to impregnate a hydrogel layer formed on a balloon with a pharmacologically active substance, bring it to a diseased site, and specifically administer the pharmacologically active substance to the diseased site. However, it usually takes several minutes, sometimes tens of minutes, to guide the balloon to the diseased site,
During this time, the pharmacologically active substance on the balloon was washed away, and effective local administration could not be performed. Further, a balloon having fine pores was used to inject a pharmacologically active substance solution at the diseased site, but the amount of the pharmacologically active substance used was very small to be injected into the diseased site, and thus it was administered. Most of the pharmacologically active substances are carried to the whole body, for example, in the bloodstream, and their side effects have been a problem. The above is the reason why the development of a balloon catheter capable of efficiently administering a pharmacologically active substance to a diseased part is desired.

We will develop a balloon catheter that can be efficiently pressed to the diseased site by releasing the retained pharmacologically active substance.

Next, the catheter (B) will be described.
Balloon catheters commercially available from various companies have a lumen for expanding the balloon. It is also possible to lower the balloon temperature by injecting a liquid into this lumen.
In order to efficiently lower the temperature of the balloon portion, it is necessary to continuously inject and discharge the liquid of low temperature. For this reason, balloon catheters having two lumens leading to the balloon are desirable. As the material for the catheter or the balloon, any of the materials currently used in the production of balloon catheters such as polyurethane, nylon and polyester can be used, and there is no particular limitation.

The thickness of the isopropylacrylamide-based copolymer layer formed on the surface of the balloon is 0.1 μm to 100 μm, preferably 1 μm to 50 μm in a dry state. When the thickness of the copolymer layer is within this range, a pharmacologically active substance can be supported, and a hydrogel can be formed by changing the temperature, so that the pharmacologically active substance can be rapidly released. In addition, this thickness does not affect the operability such as the ease of expanding the balloon.

The method for coating the copolymer containing isopropylacrylamide as a main component on the balloon is not particularly limited. For example, (1) a method in which the balloon is immersed in a solution of the copolymer and then dried by heating, 2) A method in which the solution of the copolymer is applied to the balloon with a brush and then heated and dried,
(3) A method in which a solution of the copolymer is sprayed onto the balloon and then dried by heating. When strong adhesion between the copolymer layer and the balloon cannot be obtained by these methods, hydrolysis of the balloon surface is performed. By carrying out or by treating with a silane coupling agent, treatments such as increasing the surface density of hydroxyl groups and amino groups which react with isocyanate are carried out. Furthermore, it has at least one of a photoreactive group, an epoxy group, an isocyanate group and an acid anhydride group in the molecular chain, and has good compatibility with isopropylacrylamide or a copolymer containing isopropylacrylamide as a main component. The polymer may be dissolved in the hydrogel layer.

Then, the polyNIPAM hydrogel layer was impregnated with calcein (molecular weight: 622.5). After that, this surface was washed with ion-exchanged water at 60 ° C. to remove calcein adhering to the surface and used for the release experiment. First, the calcein-carrying balloon portion is immersed in 100 ml of ion-exchanged water at 37 ° C., and while heated with warm water at 37 ° C., the calcein concentration in the ion-exchanged water is measured after 30 minutes and 60 minutes. Next, the calcein concentration in the ion-exchanged water is measured every 5 minutes in a state of being cooled with ice water at 4 ° C. The calcein release rate from the poly NIPAM layer was calculated from the respective calcein concentrations. It was 8 ng / cm 2 · min in 37 ° C water, but increased to 200 ng / cm 2 · min in 4 ° C water. That is, the release rate in water at 4 ° C increased about 25 times that in water at 37 ° C.
