Tolerability of Aquaretic-Related Symptoms Following Tolvaptan for Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: Results From TEMPO 3:4.

ABSTRACT: Introduction:In the randomized placebo-controlled Tolvaptan Efficacy and Safety in Management of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease and its Outcomes (TEMPO) 3:4 trial, tolvaptan slowed kidney growth and renal function decline in subjects with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Consistent with its primary pharmacologic activity, tolvaptan use was commonly associated with aquaretic adverse events (AAEs) attributable to excess free water clearance. Methods:A post hoc analysis of tolvaptan-related discontinuations from the pivotal randomized controlled trial TEMPO 3:4 and its open-label extension TEMPO 4:4. Results:In total, 750 of 961 tolvaptan-treated subjects (78%) in TEMPO 3:4 reported at least one AAE. Of these 750 subjects, 72 (10%) discontinued because of an AAE (aquaretic-discontinued group) and 573 (76%) continued (aquaretic-continued group). The aquaretic-discontinued subjects were younger, had better baseline renal function, and had higher fasting urine osmolality than aquaretic-continued subjects. Of the 750 subjects reporting an AAE, 105 (14%) discontinued for another reason (non-aquaretic-discontinued group). Compared to non-aquaretic-discontinued subjects, aquaretic-discontinued subjects were more commonly male, had better baseline renal function, and discontinued the study drug faster. After 3 years of therapy, 75% of tolvaptan subjects indicated that they could tolerate their current dose for the rest of their lives, compared to 85% of placebo subjects. These findings were corroborated by results in the open-label extension trial TEMPO 4:4. Discussion:In this study, AAEs were common but well tolerated in ADPKD patients on tolvaptan. ADPKD patients in earlier stages of disease progression may be more sensitive to aquaretic symptoms, which may help in guiding tolvaptan dosing and titration decisions in the future.

Project description:Backgroundand objectives The Tolvaptan Efficacy and Safety in Management of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease and Its Outcomes 3:4 study demonstrated a significant beneficial effect of the vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist tolvaptan on rates of kidney growth and eGFR decline in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). This post hoc analysis was performed to reassess the primary and secondary efficacy endpoints by CKD stage at baseline.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsIn a phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-year trial, 1445 patients with ADPKD (age 18-50 years), with total kidney volume (TKV) ≥750 ml and estimated creatinine clearance ≥60 ml/min, were randomly assigned 2:1 to split-dose tolvaptan (45/15, 60/30, or 90/30 mg daily as tolerated) or placebo. The primary endpoint was annualized rate of TKV change. Secondary endpoints included a composite endpoint of time to multiple composite ADPKD-related events (worsening kidney function, kidney pain, hypertension, and albuminuria) and rate of kidney function decline.ResultsTolvaptan reduced annualized TKV growth by 1.99%, 3.12%, and 2.61% per year (all P<0.001; subgroup-treatment interaction, P=0.17) and eGFR decline by 0.40 in CKD1 (P=0.23), 1.13 in CKD2 (P<0.001) and 1.66 ml/min per 1.73 m(2) per year in CKD3 (P<0.001) with a trend for a positive subgroup-treatment interaction (P=0.07) across CKD1, CKD2 and CKD3. ADPKD-related events were less frequent in tolvaptan recipients than in placebo recipients among those with CKD1 (hazard ratio [HR], 0.83; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.70-0.98; P=0.03) and those with CKD 3 (HR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.57-0.89; P=0.003), but not among those with CKD2 (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.85-1.21; P=0.86). Aquaresis-related adverse events (more frequent in the tolvaptan group) and ADPKD-related adverse events (more frequent in the placebo group) were not associated with CKD stage. Hypernatremia events in tolvaptan-treated patients with CKD3 and plasma aminotransferase elevations in tolvaptan-treated patients across CKD stages 1-3 occurred more frequently than in placebo recipients.ConclusionsThis post hoc analysis suggests clinically similar beneficial effects of tolvaptan in ADPKD across CKD stages 1-3.

Project description:BackgroundThe course of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is often associated with pain, hypertension, and kidney failure. Preclinical studies indicated that vasopressin V(2)-receptor antagonists inhibit cyst growth and slow the decline of kidney function.MethodsIn this phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-year trial, we randomly assigned 1445 patients, 18 to 50 years of age, who had ADPKD with a total kidney volume of 750 ml or more and an estimated creatinine clearance of 60 ml per minute or more, in a 2:1 ratio to receive tolvaptan, a V(2)-receptor antagonist, at the highest of three twice-daily dose regimens that the patient found tolerable, or placebo. The primary outcome was the annual rate of change in the total kidney volume. Sequential secondary end points included a composite of time to clinical progression (defined as worsening kidney function, kidney pain, hypertension, and albuminuria) and rate of kidney-function decline.ResultsOver a 3-year period, the increase in total kidney volume in the tolvaptan group was 2.8% per year (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.5 to 3.1), versus 5.5% per year in the placebo group (95% CI, 5.1 to 6.0; P<0.001). The composite end point favored tolvaptan over placebo (44 vs. 50 events per 100 follow-up-years, P=0.01), with lower rates of worsening kidney function (2 vs. 5 events per 100 person-years of follow-up, P<0.001) and kidney pain (5 vs. 7 events per 100 person-years of follow-up, P=0.007). Tolvaptan was associated with a slower decline in kidney function (reciprocal of the serum creatinine level, -2.61 [mg per milliliter](-1) per year vs. -3.81 [mg per milliliter](-1) per year; P<0.001). There were fewer ADPKD-related adverse events in the tolvaptan group but more events related to aquaresis (excretion of electrolyte-free water) and hepatic adverse events unrelated to ADPKD, contributing to a higher discontinuation rate (23%, vs. 14% in the placebo group).ConclusionsTolvaptan, as compared with placebo, slowed the increase in total kidney volume and the decline in kidney function over a 3-year period in patients with ADPKD but was associated with a higher discontinuation rate, owing to adverse events.

Project description:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:In the 3-year Tolvaptan Efficacy and Safety in Management of ADPKD and Its Outcomes (TEMPO) 3:4 and 1-year Replicating Evidence of Preserved Renal Function: an Investigation of Tolvaptan Safety and Efficacy in ADPKD (REPRISE) trials, tolvaptan slowed the decline of eGFR in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease at early and later stages of CKD, respectively. Our objective was to ascertain whether the reduction associated with the administration of tolvaptan is sustained, cumulative, and likely to delay the need for kidney replacement therapy. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS:One hundred and twenty-eight patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease participated in clinical trials of tolvaptan at the Mayo Clinic. All had the opportunity to enroll into open-label extension studies. Twenty participated in short-term studies or received placebo only. The remaining 108 were analyzed for safety. Ninety seven patients treated with tolvaptan for ?1 year (mean±SD, 4.6±2.8; range, 1.1-11.2) were analyzed for efficacy using three approaches: (1) comparison of eGFR slopes and outcome (33% reduction from baseline eGFR) to controls matched by sex, age, and baseline eGFR; (2) Stability of eGFR slopes with duration of follow-up; and (3) comparison of observed and predicted eGFRs at last follow-up. RESULTS:Patients treated with tolvaptan had lower eGFR slopes from baseline (mean±SD, -2.20±2.18 ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year) and from month 1 (mean±SD, -1.97±2.44 ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year) compared with controls (mean±SD, -3.50±2.09 ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year; P<0.001), and lower risk of a 33% reduction in eGFR (risk ratio, 0.63; 95% confidence interval, 0.38 to 0.98 from baseline; risk ratio, 0.53; 95% confidence interval, 0.31 to 0.85 from month 1). Annualized eGFR slopes of patients treated with tolvaptan did not change during follow-up and differences between observed and predicted eGFRs at last follow-up increased with duration of treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Follow-up for up to 11.2 years (average 4.6 years) showed a sustained reduction in the annual rate of eGFR decline in patients treated with tolvaptan compared with controls and an increasing separation of eGFR values over time between the two groups.
