Abstract

In 1- and 3-year randomized trials, tolvaptan slowed kidney function decline in subjects with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) at risk of rapid progression. The 3-year trial also evaluated effects on total kidney volume (TKV); slowing of TKV growth was demonstrated. Subjects were followed in open-label extension trials. To characterize longer-term effects of treatment, an analysis was conducted comparing tolvaptan-treated subjects with subjects from standard of care (SOC) ADPKD studies without tolvaptan.
