Patent ID: 8795707

Claim:
A compliant composite for delivery of a bioactive agent, comprising a scaffolding material, at least one polymer coating comprising one or more independently selected bioactive agents, and a barrier layer positioned between said scaffolding material and said polymer coating, wherein at least one polymer coating is an oligomer or polymer represented by Formula XXXVIII: wherein: each Q′ is independently selected from O, S, Se, and NH; G′ is selected from and R 1 ′; R 1 ′ is selected from a straight or branched alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, olefin, silyl, alkylsilyl, arylsilyl, alkylaryl, arylalkyl, and fluorocarbon chain of 3-50 carbons, wherein each alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, olefin, silyl, alkylsilyl, arylsilyl, alkylaryl, arylalkyl, or fluorocarbon chain is optionally substituted internally or terminally by one or more hydroxyl, hydroxyether, carboxyl, carboxyester, carboxyamide, amino, mono- or di-substituted amino, thiol, thioester, sulfate, phosphate, phosphonate, or halogen substituents; or R 1 ′ is selected from poly(ethylene glycol), poly(ethylene oxide), poly(hydroxyacid), a carbohydrate, a protein, a polypeptide, an amino acid, a nucleic acid, a nucleotide, a polynucleotide, any DNA or RNA segment, a lipid, a polysaccharide, an antibody, a pharmaceutical agent, and any epitope for a biological receptor; or R 1 ′ is selected from a photocrosslinkable and ionically crosslinkable group; x and y are each independently selected from an integer of 2-750; e is selected from an integer of 1-8; and each polymeric terminal group is selected from hydrogen, amines, thiols, amides, phosphates, sulphates, hydroxides, metals, alkanes, alkenes and alkynes.
