Summary

This study's purpose is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of tolvaptan versus placebo in patients with ADPKD.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Legal adult age and able to give Informed Consent.
  • Adult subjects with a diagnosis of ADPKD. A diagnosis of ADPKD (age 18 or 20-50) required several cysts in each kidney (3 if by sonography, 5 if by CT or MRI) in those with a family history of ADPKD and 10 cysts (by any radiologic method) in each kidney and exclusion of other cystic kidney diseases if there was no family history.
  • Willingness to comply with reproductive precautions, if female.
  • Estimated creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min. Estimated from serum creatinine during screening using Cockcroft-Gault with correction for gender and race, where possible.
  • Rapidly progressive kidney growth (total volume ≥ 750 cc) by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at randomization.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Prior exposure to tolvaptan or other experimental PKD therapies.
  • Currently taking medication for purpose of affecting PKD cysts.
  • Women who are breast feeding and females of childbearing potential who are not using acceptable contraceptive methods.
  • In the opinion of the study investigator or sponsor may present a safety risk or confound study objectives.
  • Patients who are unlikely to adequately comply with study procedures.
  • Patients having contraindications to MRI.
  • Patients taking medications or having any illnesses likely to affect ADPKD outcomes.
