The bioactive agent includes a: DNA minor groove binder (such as CC-1065 or Duocarmycin); apocynin; RGD peptide (such as RGDfV); stilbene compound (such as resveratrol); camptothecin; des-aspartate angiotensin I; or ADF; or an analog or derivative thereof; or a combination or blend thereof with at least one other bioactive agent. The bioactive agent is generally locally delivered, such as by elution from the stent.
