Method of securing a medical device onto a balloon and system thereof

A method for securing an implantable medical device onto a balloon, the method comprising:

• applying a coating to at least a portion of an outer surface of the balloon, the coating comprising a film-forming polymer and at least a first solvent;
• curing the film-forming polymer coating to define a solid, adherent layer on the outer surface of the balloon;
• positioning an implantable medical device on the solid, adherent layer, the implantable medical device including at least one therapeutic agent on at least a portion thereof;
• securing the implantable medical device on the surface of the balloon;
• and
• applying at least a second solvent to at least a portion of the secured implantable medical device and of the balloon to partially dissolve the solid, adherent layer between an inner surface of the implantable medical device and the outer surface of the balloon to define an adhesive layer disposed between the inner surface of the implantable medical device and the outer surface of the balloon, with reduced leaching of the therapeutic agent from the implantable medical device to the adhesive layer, wherein the at least first solvent is the same as or different from the at least second solvent.
