ABSTRACT:
A catheter is provided for performing gene therapy on a selected section of a body lumen. The catheter comprises a distal catheter body including one or more expandable members for occluding sections of the body lumen proximal and/or distal to the selected section of the body lumen; a gene therapy composition delivery lumen connected to one or more gene therapy composition delivery ports at the distal catheter body for delivering a gene therapy composition to the selected section of the body lumen, the gene therapy composition delivery lumen housing a gene therapy agent; a washing lumen connected to one or more washing ports for delivering fluid to wash the selected section of the body lumen; and an ultrasound transducer for delivering ultrasound energy to the selected section of the body lumen.
