The Elevate™ First-In-Human (FIH) study is designed to evaluate the initial safety and device functionality of the Elevate™ percutaneous Left Ventricular Assist Device (pLVAD) System in patients undergoing non-emergent, high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions.

The Elevate™ System FIH study is planned as a prospective, single-arm, interventional study of up to 20 patients.

The Magenta Elevate™ is a temporary (≤ 6 hours) ventricular support device indicated for use during high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions (HR-PCI) performed electively or urgently in hemodynamically stable patients, with severe coronary artery disease.

The Magenta Elevate™ Pump is a catheter-mounted, self-expanding and retrievable pump, designed to unload the left ventricle by actively transporting blood from the left ventricle into the ascending aorta.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Non-emergent, percutaneous coronary intervention is planned in at least one stenotic lesion of a native coronary artery or bypass graft (de novo or restenosis)

2. Ejection fraction of ≤ 45% and at least one of the following:

   1. Intervention on an unprotected left main coronary artery
   2. Intervention on a last patent coronary conduit
   3. Three-vessel disease (in case of left coronary artery dominance, the combination of a Left Anterior Descending Artery (LAD) lesion and a proximal Left Circumflex Artery (LCX) lesion qualifies as three-vessel disease)

3. Femoral artery diameter compatible with the use of Elevate™

4. Subject signed informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subject age < 40 or ≥ 83 years
2. Cardiogenic shock
3. Left ventricular mural thrombus
4. Presence of a mechanical aortic valve or a heart-constrictive device
5. Aortic stenosis
6. Moderate or severe aortic regurgitation (≥ 2+ by Transthoracic Echocardiography)
7. Severe peripheral vascular disease
8. Aortic pathology, such as aortic aneurysms, extreme tortuosity or calcifications that could pose an undue additional risk to the placement of a pLVAD device
9. Chronic renal dysfunction (serum creatinine ≥ 3.5 mg/dL)
10. Uncorrectable abnormal coagulation parameters (defined as platelet count ≤ 75,000 or INR ≥ 2.0 or fibrinogen ≤ 1.5 g/L)
11. Active systemic infection
12. Stroke or transient ischemic attack within 3 months of enrollment
13. Female subjects who are pregnant or breast-feeding
