Kidney Function Reserve Capacity in Early and Later Stage Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objectives

It is assumed that in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), kidney function remains in the normal range for several decades because of hyperfiltration of remnant nephrons. In this study, we investigate the extent to which patients with ADPKD hyperfilter.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

In this cross-sectional study, we measured GFR as urinary clearance using continuous infusion of ¹²⁵I-iothalamate. Kidney function reserve capacity was determined as increase in measured GFR after adding a dopamine infusion of 4.4-6 mg/h. Potential kidney donors were used as healthy controls and matched by age and sex to patients with ADPKD for comparisons across age groups and CKD stages. Hyperfiltration was defined by a loss of kidney function reserve capacity compared with healthy controls.

Results

A total of 300 participants were studied. In the youngest age group (18-29 years), measured GFR was not different between patients with ADPKD and healthy controls (103±21 versus 111±9 ml/min per 1.73 m²; P=0.14). In this age group kidney function reserve capacity was higher compared with healthy controls (11.1%±8.3% versus 5.3%±6.5%; P=0.04). Moreover, kidney function reserve capacity was similar to healthy controls in patients with ADPKD with early-stage disease (eGFR?60 ml/min per 1.73 m²), either overall or when divided into fast or slow progressors according to their Mayo height-adjusted total kidney volume class. However, in patients with ADPKD, lower measured GFR was associated with lower kidney function reserve capacity (?=1.0 [95% confidence interval, 0.5 to 1.5] % per 10 ml/min per 1.73 m²; P<0.001). Kidney function reserve capacity was therefore lower compared with healthy controls at older age and later CKD stages.

Conclusions

Patients with early-stage ADPKD, either classified as having rapidly or slowly progressive disease, are able to increase their GFR in response to dopamine. Hyperfiltration, defined by a loss of kidney function reserve capacity, may therefore not be an early phenomenon in ADPKD.

Project description:Background and objectivesTolvaptan slows kidney function decline in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) at risk of rapid progression. In the 3-year Tolvaptan Efficacy and Safety in Management of ADPKD and Its Outcomes (TEMPO) 3:4, 2-year extension to TEMPO 3:4 (TEMPO 4:4), and 1-year Replicating Evidence of Preserved Renal Function: An Investigation of Tolvaptan Safety and Efficacy in ADPKD (REPRISE) trials, aquaretic adverse events were common. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevations occurred in all three studies. Three patients met Hy Law criteria (ALT or AST more than three times and total bilirubin more than two times the upper limit of normal) for severe drug-induced liver injury (two in TEMPO 3:4 and one in TEMPO 4:4). In REPRISE, liver enzyme monitoring frequency was increased to monthly, with no Hy Law cases. A long-term, phase 3 safety study has further characterized tolvaptan safety.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsSubjects who completed TEMPO 4:4, REPRISE, or other tolvaptan trials could enroll in this prospective, multinational, open-label safety study. Assessments included monthly liver enzyme testing during the first 18 months of tolvaptan exposure and every 3 months thereafter.ResultsAmong 1803 subjects, median tolvaptan exposure during the extension was 651 days (interquartile range, 538-924), and cumulative exposure (extension and previous trials) was ≤11 years. Subjects entering from REPRISE placebo experienced more aquaretic adverse events compared with subjects from TEMPO 4:4 or REPRISE tolvaptan (i.e., patients with prior long-term tolvaptan exposure). Liver enzyme elevations also occurred more frequently in subjects from REPRISE placebo. Percentages experiencing ALT ≥3/≥5/ ≥10/≥20 times the upper limit of normal were 3.2%/2.1%/0.9%/0.7%, respectively, in subjects from REPRISE placebo and 0.6%-1.1%/0.0%-0.1%/0%/0%, respectively, in those from REPRISE tolvaptan and TEMPO 4:4. Percentages experiencing AST ≥3/ ≥5/≥10/≥20 times the upper limit of normal were 6.9%/3.8%/2.3%/0.8%, respectively, in subjects from REPRISE placebo and 0.9%-2.0%/0.0%-1.0%/0%/0%, respectively, in those from REPRISE tolvaptan and TEMPO 4:4. No Hy Law cases occurred.ConclusionsNo new safety signals emerged during this long-term extension. Monthly liver function testing for the first 18 months of treatment appeared to enable effective detection and management of transaminase elevations.Clinical trial registry name and registration numberOpen Label Extension of TEMPO 3:4, NCT02251275.

Project description:Hypertension is common in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and is associated with increased total kidney volume, activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and progression of kidney disease.In this double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we randomly assigned 558 hypertensive participants with ADPKD (15 to 49 years of age, with an estimated glomerular filtration rate [GFR] >60 ml per minute per 1.73 m(2) of body-surface area) to either a standard blood-pressure target (120/70 to 130/80 mm Hg) or a low blood-pressure target (95/60 to 110/75 mm Hg) and to either an angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (lisinopril) plus an angiotensin-receptor blocker (telmisartan) or lisinopril plus placebo. The primary outcome was the annual percentage change in the total kidney volume.The annual percentage increase in total kidney volume was significantly lower in the low-blood-pressure group than in the standard-blood-pressure group (5.6% vs. 6.6%, P=0.006), without significant differences between the lisinopril-telmisartan group and the lisinopril-placebo group. The rate of change in estimated GFR was similar in the two medication groups, with a negative slope difference in the short term in the low-blood-pressure group as compared with the standard-blood-pressure group (P<0.001) and a marginally positive slope difference in the long term (P=0.05). The left-ventricular-mass index decreased more in the low-blood-pressure group than in the standard-blood-pressure group (-1.17 vs. -0.57 g per square meter per year, P<0.001); urinary albumin excretion was reduced by 3.77% with the low-pressure target and increased by 2.43% with the standard target (P<0.001). Dizziness and light-headedness were more common in the low-blood-pressure group than in the standard-blood-pressure group (80.7% vs. 69.4%, P=0.002).In early ADPKD, the combination of lisinopril and telmisartan did not significantly alter the rate of increase in total kidney volume. As compared with standard blood-pressure control, rigorous blood-pressure control was associated with a slower increase in total kidney volume, no overall change in the estimated GFR, a greater decline in the left-ventricular-mass index, and greater reduction in urinary albumin excretion.

Project description:Background & aimsPolycystic liver disease (PLD), the most common extrarenal manifestation of autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), has become more prevalent as a result of increased life expectancy, improved renal survival, reduced cardiovascular mortality, and renal replacement therapy. No studies have fully characterized PLD in large cohorts. We investigated whether liver and cyst volumes are associated with volume of the hepatic parenchyma, results from liver laboratory tests, and patient-reported outcomes.MethodsWe performed a cross-sectional analysis of baseline liver volumes, measured by magnetic resonance imaging, and their association with demographics, results from liver laboratory and other tests, and quality of life. The data were collected from a randomized, placebo-controlled trial underway at 7 tertiary-care medical centers to determine whether the combination of an angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitor and angiotensin II-receptor blocker was superior to the inhibitor alone, and whether low blood pressure (<110/75 mm Hg) was superior to standard blood pressure (120-130/70-80 mm Hg), in delaying renal cystic progression in 558 patients with ADPKD, stages 1 and 2 chronic kidney disease, and hypertension (age, 15-49 y).ResultsWe found hepatomegaly to be common among patients with ADPKD. Cysts and parenchyma contributed to hepatomegaly. Cysts were more common and liver and cyst volumes were greater in women, increasing with age. Patients with advanced disease had a relative loss of liver parenchyma. We observed small abnormalities in results from liver laboratory tests, and that splenomegaly and hypersplenism were associated with PLD severity. Higher liver volumes were associated with a lower quality of life.ConclusionsHepatomegaly is common even in early stage ADPKD and is not accounted for by cysts alone. Parenchymal volumes were larger, compared with liver volumes of patients without ADPKD or with those predicted by standardized equations, even among patients without cysts. The severity of PLD was associated with altered biochemical and hematologic features, as well as quality of life. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00283686.

Project description:BackgroundAutosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most frequent genetically determined renal disease. In affected patients, renal function may progressively decline up to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and approximately 10% of those with ESRD are affected by ADPKD. The somatostatin analog octreotide long-acting release (octreotide-LAR) slows renal function deterioration in patients in early stages of the disease. We evaluated the renoprotective effect of octreotide-LAR in ADPKD patients at high risk of ESRD because of later-stage ADPKD.Methods and findingsWe did an internally funded, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III trial to assess octreotide-LAR in adults with ADPKD with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) 15-40 ml/min/1.73 m2. Participants were randomized to receive 2 intramuscular injections of 20 mg octreotide-LAR (n = 51) or 0.9% sodium chloride solution (placebo; n = 49) every 28 days for 3 years. Central randomization was 1:1 using a computerized list stratified by center and presence or absence of diabetes or proteinuria. Co-primary short- and long-term outcomes were 1-year total kidney volume (TKV) (computed tomography scan) growth and 3-year GFR (iohexol plasma clearance) decline. Analyses were by modified intention-to-treat. Patients were recruited from 4 Italian nephrology units between October 11, 2011, and March 20, 2014, and followed up to April 14, 2017. Baseline characteristics were similar between groups. Compared to placebo, octreotide-LAR reduced median (95% CI) TKV growth from baseline by 96.8 (10.8 to 182.7) ml at 1 year (p = 0.027) and 422.6 (150.3 to 695.0) ml at 3 years (p = 0.002). Reduction in the median (95% CI) rate of GFR decline (0.56 [-0.63 to 1.75] ml/min/1.73 m2 per year) was not significant (p = 0.295). TKV analyses were adjusted for age, sex, and baseline TKV. Over a median (IQR) 36 (24 to 37) months of follow-up, 9 patients on octreotide-LAR and 21 patients on placebo progressed to a doubling of serum creatinine or ESRD (composite endpoint) (hazard ratio [HR] [95% CI] adjusted for age, sex, baseline serum creatinine, and baseline TKV: 0.307 [0.127 to 0.742], p = 0.009). One composite endpoint was prevented for every 4 treated patients. Among 63 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 4, 3 on octreotide-LAR and 8 on placebo progressed to ESRD (adjusted HR [95% CI]: 0.121 [0.017 to 0.866], p = 0.036). Three patients on placebo had a serious renal cyst rupture/infection and 1 patient had a serious urinary tract infection/obstruction, versus 1 patient on octreotide-LAR with a serious renal cyst infection. The main study limitation was the small sample size.ConclusionsIn this study we observed that in later-stage ADPKD, octreotide-LAR slowed kidney growth and delayed progression to ESRD, in particular in CKD stage 4.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT01377246; EudraCT: 2011-000138-12.

Project description:Rationale & objectiveVascular dysfunction, characterized by impaired vascular endothelial function and increased large-elastic artery stiffness, is evident early in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and is an important predictor of cardiovascular events and mortality. Aldosterone excess has been implicated in the development of endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness, in part by causing increased oxidative stress and inflammation. We hypothesized that aldosterone antagonism would reduce vascular dysfunction in patients with early-stage ADPKD.Study designProspective, randomized, controlled, double-blind, clinical trial.Setting & participants61 adults aged 20 to 55 years with ADPKD, estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 60mL/min/1.73m2, and receiving a renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor.InterventionSpironolactone (maximum dose, 50mg/d) or placebo for 24 weeks.OutcomesChange in brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMDBA) was the primary end point and change in carotid-femoral pulse-wave velocity (CFPWV) was the secondary end point.Results60 participants completed the trial. Participants had a mean age of 34±10 (SD) years, 54% were women, and 84% were non-Hispanic white. Spironolactone did not change FMDBA (8.0% ± 5.5% and 7.8% ± 4.3% at baseline and 24 weeks, respectively, vs corresponding values in the placebo group of 8.4% ± 6.2% and 8.0% ± 4.6%; P=0.9for comparison of change between groups) or CFPWV (640±127 and 603±101cm/s at baseline and 24 weeks, respectively, vs corresponding values in the placebo group of 659±138 and 658±131cm/s; P=0.1). Brachial systolic blood pressure was reduced with spironolactone (median change, -6 [IQR, -15, 1] vs -2 [IQR, -7, 10] mm Hg in the placebo group; P=0.04). Spironolactone did not change the majority of circulating and/or endothelial cell markers of oxidative stress/inflammation and did not change vascular oxidative stress.LimitationsLow level of baseline vascular dysfunction; lack of aldosterone measurements.Conclusions24 weeks of aldosterone antagonism reduced systolic blood pressure without changing vascular function in patients with early-stage ADPKD.FundingNIDDK, NIH National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, and the Zell Family Foundation.Trial registrationRegistered at ClinicalTrials.gov with study number NCT01853553.
