Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - ALV1 System

Treatment: Devices: ALV1 System
The ALV1 system is designed to create a controlled size interatrial shunt via a proprietary intra-cardiac catheter. There is no temporary or permanent implant used to create or maintain the interatrial shunt. The therapy is intended to be delivered in a single procedure administered under general anesthesia in a cardiac catheterization laboratory.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 0 0
The composite incidence of one or more major adverse cardiac, cerebrovascular and thromboembolic events and change in supine exercise PCWP at peak exercise.
Timepoint [1] 0 0
At 1 month and through 12 months

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. NYHA Class II at screening with a prior history of greater than NYHA Class II, OR NYHA Class III at screening, OR ambulatory Class IV at screening: with documented medical history of heart failure for at least 6 months prior to the screening visit.
2. Medical history within the past 12 months of at least one hospitalization with heart failure as the primary or secondary diagnosis OR treatment with IV diuretics for heart failure..
3. LVEF (by Echo) > 40% as measured by the study-specific transthoracic echocardiography.
4. Echocardiographic evidence of diastolic dysfunction documented by one or more of the following as measured by the study-specific transthoracic echocardiography protocol:

1. LA diameter > 4cm
2. LA volume index >28 mL
3. Lateral e' <10 cm/s
4. Septal e' <8 cm/s
5. Lateral E/e' >10
6. Septal E/e' >15
5. As measured by the study-specific exercise hemodynamic right heart catheterization protocol performed during screening: Elevated left atrial pressure WITH a gradient compared to right atrial pressure (RAP) documented by: (1) end-expiratory PCWP at peak supine cycle ergometer exercise = 25mmHg AND (2) PCWP greater than RAP by = 5 mmHg, OR (1) = 10 mmHg increase of end-expiratory PCWP at peak supine cycle ergometer exercise compared to resting PCWP AND (2) PCWP greater than RAP by = 5 mmHg. Patients must also have PCWP greater than RAP by = 5 mmHg at rest.
