Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of the trial was to determine the short-term effects of tolvaptan in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) at various levels of renal function.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Renal function was assessed during screening with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), which was calculated with the 4-variable modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation using a minimum of 2 creatinine measurements. The eGFR values were used to categorize participants into 1 of 3 mutually exclusive strata (> 60 [Group A], 30 to 60 [Group B], and < 30 [Group C] mL/min/1.73 m^2). Each of the 3 groups received the same tolvaptan treatment.

During the 3-week treatment period, participants were up-titrated on a weekly basis from 45/15 mg to 60/30 mg to 90/30 mg (AM and PM [8 hours later] split-dose) to the maximally tolerated dose. The 3-week treatment period was followed by a 3-week post-treatment period during which no study medication was administered.

The effects of the highest tolerated split-dose of tolvaptan on renal hemodynamics and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters were assessed throughout the 6 weeks of the study. The reversibility of changes during the post-treatment period after withdrawal of the drug was determined and the acute transitory effects on kidney volume were also explored.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Mean Change From Baseline in Measured Glomerular Filtration Rate (mGFR) After 3 Weeks of Tolvaptan Treatment and at 3 Weeks Post Treatment. [After 3 weeks of treatment and 3 weeks post treatment]

      Renal function measurements were performed using the constant infusion method with 125I-iothalamate and 131I-hippuran. A priming solution containing 20 mL infusion solution (0.04 MBq of 125I-iothalamate and 0.03 MBq of 131I-hippuran) was given at 08:00 hours, followed by a constant infusion of 6 to 12 mL/h, with the lowest infusion rates in subjects with impaired renal function, based on previously known serum creatinine concentrations. Plasma concentrations of both tracers were allowed to stabilize during a 1.5-hour equilibration, which was followed by two 2-hour periods (09:30 to 11:30 hours and 11:30 to 13:30 hours) for simultaneous clearances of 125I-iothalamate and 131I-hippuran. Blood was drawn at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 hours post consumption of water/tolvaptan (08:30 hours). The mGFR was corrected for voiding errors.

    2. Mean Change From Baseline in Effective Renal Plasma Flow (ERPF) After 3 Weeks of Tolvaptan Treatment and at 3 Weeks Post Treatment. [After 3 weeks of treatment and 3 weeks post treatment]

      Renal function measurements were performed using the constant infusion method with 125I-iothalamate and 131I-hippuran. A priming solution containing 20 mL infusion solution (0.04 MBq of 125I-iothalamate and 0.03 MBq of 131I-hippuran) was given at 08:00 hours, followed by a constant infusion of 6 to 12 mL/h, with the lowest infusion rates in subjects with impaired renal function, based on previously known serum creatinine concentrations. Plasma concentrations of both tracers were allowed to stabilize during a 1.5-hour equilibration, which was followed by two 2-hour periods (09:30 to 11:30 hours and 11:30 to 13:30 hours) for simultaneous clearances of 125I-iothalamate and 131I-hippuran. Blood was drawn at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 hours post consumption of water/tolvaptan (08:30 hours).

    3. Mean Change From Baseline in Filtration Fraction (GFR/ERFP) After 3 Weeks of Tolvaptan Treatment and at 3 Weeks Post Treatment. [After 3 weeks of treatment and 3 weeks post treatment]

      Renal function measurements were performed using the constant infusion method with 125I-iothalamate and 131I-hippuran. A priming solution containing 20 mL infusion solution (0.04 MBq of 125I-iothalamate and 0.03 MBq of 131I-hippuran) was given at 08:00 hours, followed by a constant infusion of 6 to 12 mL/h, with the lowest infusion rates in subjects with impaired renal function, based on previously known serum creatinine concentrations. Plasma concentrations of both tracers were allowed to stabilize during a 1.5-hour equilibration, which was followed by two 2-hour periods (09:30 to 11:30 hours and 11:30 to 13:30 hours) for simultaneous clearances of 125I-iothalamate and 131I-hippuran.

      TKV was measured using magnetic resonance imaging.

    6. Mean Change From Baseline in 24 Hour Urine Volume After 3 Weeks Tolvaptan Treatment and at 3 Weeks Post Treatment. [24 hours]

      A 24-hour split urine sample (approximate times: 0700 to 1700 hours, 1700 hours to bedtime, and bedtime to 0700 hours) was collected beginning the day before the Baseline, Final Treatment, and Post Treatment visits and ending at admission to the renal function ward. Individual voids in a collection interval were pooled and the total volume determined.

    3. Primary Outcome
    Title Mean Change From Baseline in Filtration Fraction (GFR/ERFP) After 3 Weeks of Tolvaptan Treatment and at 3 Weeks Post Treatment.
    Description Renal function measurements were performed using the constant infusion method with 125I-iothalamate and 131I-hippuran. A priming solution containing 20 mL infusion solution (0.04 MBq of 125I-iothalamate and 0.03 MBq of 131I-hippuran) was given at 08:00 hours, followed by a constant infusion of 6 to 12 mL/h, with the lowest infusion rates in subjects with impaired renal function, based on previously known serum creatinine concentrations. Plasma concentrations of both tracers were allowed to stabilize during a 1.5-hour equilibration, which was followed by two 2-hour periods (09:30 to 11:30 hours and 11:30 to 13:30 hours) for simultaneous clearances of 125I-iothalamate and 131I-hippuran. Blood was drawn at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 hours post consumption of water/tolvaptan (08:30 hours).

    9. Secondary Outcome
    Title Mean Change From Baseline in 24 Hour Urine Volume After 3 Weeks Tolvaptan Treatment and at 3 Weeks Post Treatment.
    Description A 24-hour split urine sample (approximate times: 0700 to 1700 hours, 1700 hours to bedtime, and bedtime to 0700 hours) was collected beginning the day before the Baseline, Final Treatment, and Post Treatment visits and ending at admission to the renal function ward. Individual voids in a collection interval were pooled and the total volume determined.
