In accordance with an aspect of the invention, implantable or insertable medical devices are provided that comprise (a) a substrate and (b) a porous layer comprising close packed spherical pores disposed over the substrate. The porous layer may also comprise a therapeutic agent. In another aspect, the present invention provides methods of forming implantable or insertable medical devices. These methods comprise forming a predecessor structure that comprises (i) a substrate over which is disposed (ii) an assembly of microspheres. This assembly of microspheres is then used as a template for the formation of a porous layer, which may be subsequently loaded with a therapeutic agent.
1. A method of forming an implantable or insertable medical device comprising: (a) forming a predecessor structure that comprises an assembly of microspheres disposed over an underlying substrate, the microspheres carrying a first therapeutic agent, the first therapeutic agent being loaded to the mi
1. A method of forming an implantable or insertable medical device comprising: (a) forming a predecessor structure that comprises an assembly of microspheres disposed over an underlying substrate, the microspheres carrying a first therapeutic agent, the first therapeutic agent being loaded to the microspheres by conjugating the first therapeutic agent with a surface of the microspheres or by forming a coating layer containing the first therapeutic agent on the microspheres,(b) mixing with or conjugating to a biodegradable polymer a second therapeutic agent and using the mixed or conjugated biodegradable polymer and the second therapeutic agent to form a biodegradable, porous layer over said substrate using said microspheres as templates for pores of the porous layer,(c) removing portions of or all of the microspheres to form the porous layer, with the pores containing the first therapeutic agent, and(d) loading the pores of the porous layer with a third therapeutic agent. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein said microspheres comprise a radiation degradable polymer and wherein said predecessor structure is irradiated with electrons such that said porous layer is created from degradation of said assembly of microspheres. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein said radiation degradable polymer is a homopolymer or copolymer comprising a monomer selected from methyl methacrylate, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-chloroacrylate, butene-1-sulfone, and combinations thereof. 4. The method of claim 2, wherein said medical device is rotated during electron irradiation. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein said porous layer is created by a method comprising (a) infiltrating interstices between the microspheres with a fluid of the mixed or conjugated biodegradable polymer and the first therapeutic agent, (b) solidifying said fluid, and (c) removing said microspheres to create said porous layer. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein said microspheres are selected from polymeric, ceramic and metallic microspheres. 7. The method of claim 5, wherein said fluid comprises heat-fusible particles, a polymerizable fluid, a polymer melt, a polymer solution, or a solution comprising a sol-gel precursor. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein said microspheres are less than 1 μm in diameter. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein said microspheres are less than 100 nm in diameter. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the assembly is one microsphere in thickness. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the assembly is ten or more microspheres in thickness. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein said porous layer is made more hydrophobic before loading said porous layer with said third therapeutic agent. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein said porous layer is made more hydrophilic before loading said porous layer with said third therapeutic agent. 14. The method of claim 1, further comprising applying a coating layer over the therapeutic-agent-loaded porous layer. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein said coating comprises a material selected from a polymer, a metal, a metal oxide and a combination of the same. 16. The method of claim 1, wherein said microspheres are monodisperse or polydisperse. 17. The method of claim 1, wherein the microspheres comprise a biodegradable polymer. 18. The method of claim 2, wherein creating the porous layer comprises removing the microspheres from a center of each microsphere outwardly. 19. The method of claim 5 or 18, wherein removing the microspheres comprises partially removing the microspheres.
