DIOR® – DRUG-ELUTING PTCA BALLOON TECHNOLOGY SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR CORONARY INTERVENTIONS DIOR® – COATING CHARACTERISTICS Paclitaxel Paclitaxel is an active ingredient that inhibits the cell replication; thus blocking the microtubules decomposition during the metaphase and anaphase stages of mitosis. Shellac is a natural resin composed of shellolic and alleuritic acid. The excellent film forming properties of shellac are used to coat pharmaceutical products and in the food industry. By selectively inhibiting the proliferation of smooth muscle cells, paclitaxel does not influence...

DIOR® – DRUG-ELUTING PTCA BALLOON TECHNOLOGY SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR CORONARY INTERVENTIONS DIOR® – COATING CHARACTERISTICS Amorphous Coating The durable non-crystalline bioshell coating homogenously covers the balloon surface and protects the drug from mechanical abrasion and early wash off, resulting in a low paclitaxel blood plasma concentration. level of no toxicity reaction Paclitaxel blood plasma concentrations at 5 and 10 minutes after inflation (60 sec) with DIOR® DEB. After inflations of 45 sec or less no paclitaxel could be detected in the blood plasma.2 Level of toxicity for...

DIOR® – DRUG-ELUTING PTCA BALLOON TECHNOLOGY SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR CORONARY INTERVENTIONS DIOR® – PRECLINICAL PROGRAM DIOR® DEB Coronary arteries of 33 domestic pig were treated with the DIOR drug eluting balloon in a time-dependent matter. Arteries were dissected and sent to a blinded laboratory for paclitaxel determination. Histomorphometry and histopathology were performed two weeks after dilatation. • No delay in endothelialization, no disadvantages in injury and inflammation score compared to standard balloon dilatation coronary arteries two weeks after dilatation. • DIOR® DEB...
