Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subjects who voluntarily participate by giving written informed consent on this trial
  • Male and female patients aged ≥ 19 to ≤ 50 years
  • Subjects diagnosed with ADPKD based on the Unified Criteria for Ultrasonographic diagnosis of ADPKD (Pei-Ravine Criteria)
  • Subjects with confirmed CKD stages 1-3 at the screening visit
  • Subjects with confirmed rapidly progressive typical ADPKD 'Typical ADPKD'
  • refers to bilateral and diffuse distribution, with mild, moderate or severe replacement of kidney tissue by cysts, where all cysts contribute similarly to TKV.

'rapidly progressive ADPKD'

  • Patients will be defined as 'rapidly progressive ADPKD' if they meet any of the following criteria:
  • Mayo class 1C, 1D or 1E
  • Truncating PKD1 mutation confirmed by genetic testing before participating this trial ③ PRO-PKD score > 6 ④ Patients with ADPKD with a decline in Estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) ≥ 5 mL/min/1.73 m2 within 1 year from the screening visit or with an average annual decline in eGFR ≥ 2.5 mL/min/1.73 m2 over a period of 5 years (excluding patients with an eGFR decline due to factors other than ADPKD, such as uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, early diabetic glomerular disease or immune-mediated glomerulonephritis)

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with hyponatremia or hypernatremia
  • Patients with anuria
  • Patients with volume depletion
  • Patients who are unable to sense or appropriately respond to thirst
  • Patients with contraindications to MRI assessment [e.g., ferromagnetic metal prosthesis, aneurysm clips, severe claustrophobia, large tattoo on the abdomen or back, etc.]
  • Patients with severe renal impairment [e.g., patients with currently active glomerulonephritis, kidney cancer, having a single kidney, history of renal surgery within the last 3 years, etc.]
  • Patients with severe hepatic impairment [e.g., cirrhosis, viral hepatitis, unspecified liver function test abnormalities (ALT or Aspartate aminotransferase(AST)) > 3 x ULN or Total Bilirubin > 2 x ULN), etc.]
  • Patients with eGFR decline due to factors other than ADPKD (e.g., uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, early diabetic glomerular disease or immune-mediated glomerulonephritis, etc.)
  • Patients with a history of hypersensitivity and/or specific reactions to benzazepine or benzazepine derivatives (such as Benazepril), or tolvaptan
  • Patients with hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactose deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption, etc.
  • Patients who need chronic diuretic use
  • Patients who are receiving any experimental (not marketed) or approved therapies that may affect the treatment of ADPKD within 6 months from the screening visit [e.g., anti-sense RNA therapy, rapamycin, sirolimus, everolimus and somatostatin analogs (octreotide, sandostatin), vasopressin antagonist (mozavaptan, conivaptan), vasopressin agonist (desmopressin)]
  • Patients who have received cyst decompression or sclerotherapy within 3 years from the screening visit
  • Patients with a history of taking tolvaptan within 6 months from the screening visit
  • Patients who received any investigational medicinal product in another trial within 30 days from the screening visit
  • Fertile women who are currently pregnant or breat feeding, or not willing to use or capable of using acceptable contraceptive methods (abstinence, oral, implanted or injected hormonal methods of contraception, intrauterine device or barrier methods of contraception, such as condom, contraceptive diaphragm and spermicidal agents) to avoid pregnancy until completion of the trial
  • Patients who are, in the opinion of the investigator, unable to comply with the administration of the Investigational Medicinal Product(IMP) or the trial procedures

Treatment and study plan

Drug

30mg and 15mg of Tolvaptan Tablet

Other names: Samsca

Primary outcomes

  1. The incidences of TEAEs

    Time frame: during the tolvaptan treatment period and up to 7 days after the date of last dosing

    The incidences of TEAEs

  2. The incidences of TEAEs meeting any of the followings will be summarized.

    Time frame: during the tolvaptan treatment period and up to 7 days after the date of last dosing

    Liver injury [ALT or AST elevation (>3 x ULN) or Total Bilirubin elevation (>2 x ULN), etc.], AEs leading to death, Serious AEs, AEs leading to treatment discontinuation, AEs whose causal relationship with the IMP cannot be ruled out, Severe AEs, Dehydration, Effects on Sodium, Creatinine

    (off-treatment)

  3. eGFR CKD-EPI annual mean change [mL/min/1.73m^2] (on-treatment)

    Time frame: from Completion of Tolvaptan Titration Period (Visit 6, Week 4) to End of Treatment (Visit 25, Month 24)
