The present invention provides inflatable porous implants, such as grafts, stent-grafts, and bladders, as well as methods and kits for drug delivery. In particular, the grafts and stent-grafts of the present invention provide for the delivery of a therapeutic agent into a flow conduit in the body. The inflatable porous implants provide for direct delivery of larger, more precise dosages of drugs over longer administration periods into the body. Moreover, these inflatable porous implants are often flexible when inserted and have a low profile delivery configuration for easy placement. The implants of the present invention further provide a mechanical or structural function in addition to drug delivery in a single integrated structure.

1. A method for delivering a therapeutic agent, said method comprising: providing a graft comprising: a graft body section having a proximal end, a distal end, and defining at least one inflatable porous channel; andat least one inflatable porous cuff disposed at the proximal or distal end of the graft body section and in fluid communication with the at least one channel, wherein the at least one inflatable porous cuff is disposed in an axisymmetric cylindrical manner around the proximal or distal end of the graft body section;providing an inflation medium including at least one therapeutic agent configured to be introduced into the inflatable channel; wherein the inflation medium comprises a curable liquid comprising a therapeutic agent-carrying host polymer;implanting the graft body in a body lumen; andinflating the porous channel with the inflation medium including the at least one therapeutic agent. 2. The method of claim 1 further comprising transporting the therapeutic agent from the inflation medium through the porous channel and releasing the agent into the body lumen. 3. The method of claim 2 further comprising releasing the therapeutic agent into the body lumen from a luminal or abluminal surface of the graft body section. 4. The method of claim 2 wherein the porous channel comprises expanded or perforated polytetrafluoroethylene having varying levels of porosity. 5. The method of claim 2 further comprising releasing the therapeutic agent by diffusion through the host polymer. 6. The method of claim 2 further comprising releasing the therapeutic agent by degradation of the host polymer. 7. The method of claim 2 wherein the graft body section inhibits transport of a bulk of the host polymer. 8. The method of claim 2 wherein the host polymer comprises polyethylene glycol that is injected as a liquid. 9. The method of claim 8 wherein the inflation medium has a cure time ranging from about three minutes to about twenty minutes and a post-cure elastic modulus ranging from about 50 psi to about 400 psi. 10. The method of claim 1 wherein the at least one therapeutic agent comprises one or more agents selected from the group consisting of an endothelialization promoting agent, an angiogenesis promoting agent, an anti-thrombotic agent, an anti-aneurysmal agent, an anti-infection agent, an anti-inflammatory agent, an anti-restenosis agent, a chemotherapeutic agent, and an anti-cancer agent. 11. The method of claim 1 further comprising releasing the therapeutic agent into the body lumen in a time period ranging from about seven days to about twelve months. 12. A method for delivering a therapeutic agent, said method comprising: providing an implant comprising: a graft comprising a graft body section having a proximal end, a distal end, and defining at least one inflatable porous channel therebetween;a connector member affixed to the proximal or distal end of the graft body section, the connector member comprising one or more connector elements; anda stent comprising one or more proximal stent connector elements coupled to the one or more connector member connector elements wherein the stent comprises a multi-crown configuration;providing a curable inflation medium including at least one therapeutic agent configured to be introduced into the inflatable channel,implanting the implant in a body lumen; andinflating the porous channel with the inflation medium including the at least one therapeutic agent. 13. The method of claim 12 wherein the at least one therapeutic agent comprises one or more agents selected from the group consisting of an endothelialization promoting agent, an angiogenesis promoting agent, an anti-thrombotic agent, an anti-aneurysmal agent, an anti-infection agent, an anti-inflammatory agent, an anti-restenosis agent, a chemotherapeutic agent, and an anti-cancer agent. 14. The method of claim 12 further comprising transporting the therapeutic agent from the inflation medium through the porous channel and releasing the agent into the body lumen. 15. The method of claim 12 further comprising releasing the therapeutic agent into the body lumen from a luminal or abluminal surface of the graft body section. 16. The method of claim 12 wherein the host polymer comprises polyethylene glycol that is injected as a liquid. 17. The method of claim 12 wherein the graft body section inhibits transport of a bulk of the host polymer. 18. The method of claim 12 further comprising releasing the therapeutic agent into the body lumen in a time period ranging from about seven days to about twelve months. 19. The method of claim 12 further comprising releasing the therapeutic agent by diffusion through the host polymer or by degradation of the host polymer.
