Presenter Disclosure Information
I will discuss off label use and/or investigational
use of contrast agents in my presentation.
Financial Relationships to disclose:
• Bayer Schering Pharma AG
• Boston Scientific Corporation
• Surgi-vision, Inc.
• Siemens Healthcare USA
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
• PAD affects ~8-12 million
Americans.
• 1 in 5 patients with critical
limb ischemia have severe
enough disease to be
ineligible for conventional
medical or surgical
revascularization therapy.
• Normal signals to build new
vessels are in foot, but
problem higher in the leg.
How to create new blood vessels?
Problem with Current Cell Therapy
Large numbers of cell are administered but fail to
engraft due to:
• Poor
oxygen/nutrient
supply
• Inflammatory
cytokines
• Survival signals
by cell-cell
contact lost

Solution: Place Cells in “Seaweed Bubble”
APA ≡Alginate-poly-L-lysine-alginate
Lim and Sun, Science 1980
Biocompatible
- Provides surface for
cell adhesion
Selective permeability
- Blocks antibody and
cellular destruction –
good for transplanted
O2, Glu donor cells
VEGF, PGE2,
- Permits diffusion of
IL-8, IL-6, HGF, etc. nutrients and waste
products.

Problem with Current Cell Therapy
Cannot “see” where cells are injected.

Conclusions
An X-ray-visible capsule made of clinical grade
components was developed that:
1. enabled targeting of injections where most
needed using common interventional radiology
X-ray equipment.
2. enabled determination of cell viability in vivo.
3. enhanced cell viability after administration.
4. improved therapeutic effect of creating new
blood vessels for treatment of peripheral arterial
disease.
