Title: BIOSENSORS Strategic Roadmap FY 20092010
1The abluminal biodegradable polymer DES
2BioMatrix The abluminal biodegradable polymer
DES
BIODEGRADABLE PLA PLA biodegradation along with
BA9 elution No PLA /BA9 coating on the stent
after 6 to 9months
S-STENT PLATFORM High flexibility without
compromising vessel support Unmatched side branch
access
Data on file molecular weightlt10kDa
3S-STENT PLATFORM
UNMATCHED SIDE BRANCH ACCESS Optimized cell
design providing largest cell diameter
HIGH FLEXIBILITY VESSEL SUPPORT Unique
Quadrature Link connectors Different models for
small and large vessels

4BIOLIMUS A9 DRUG
PROPRIETARY DRUG BA9 A rapamycin derivative
developed specifically for stent application by
Biosensors Reduced systemic exposure and more
localized drug effect due to highest lipophilic
profile and abluminal coating Effective
immunosuppressive and anti-proliferative
properties
LIPOPHILICITY COMPARISON Highest lipophilic and
hydrophobic properties of commercially available
limus drugs Minimizes attraction to blood and
maximizes tissue absorption Minimizing drug
release into bloodstream
/- 2.8 (valid for all drugs tested)
5ABLUMINAL BIODEGRADABLE COATING
PLA biodegradation along with BA9 elution No
PLA /BA9 coating on the stent after 6 to
9months Abluminal coating reduces total amount
of polymer used High drug carrying capacity of
PLA allowing for lower amount of polymer
6BioMatrix The Abluminal Biodegradable Polymer
DES
No PLA /BA9 coating on the stent after 6 to 9
months
Biodegradation of PLA Elution of BA9
