ABSTRACT:
Implants which are capable of sustained release of a cell proliferation modulating agent, together with methods for their preparation and use, are provided. The proliferation modulating agent is associated either covalently or non-covalently with the material from which the implant is prepared, generally a biologically inert polymer which is physiologically compatible. The implants are implanted in the tissue, and the drug is released such that the drug is substantially retained within the implant region. The device can be used to inhibit cellular proliferation around the implant. The device can be provided as a sterile kit, preferably in a form suitable for immediate use.
