ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an intraluminal stent having a lumen-wall contacting surface and a lumen-exposed surface wherein the stent comprises a first polymer composition comprising fibrin and wherein the stent is suitable to deliver virus to the wall of a lumen of the body. The invention also relates to methods for making the stent and to methods for delivering nucleic acid to cells accessible from a wall of a body lumen.
