Cinacalcet may suppress kidney enlargement in hemodialysis patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: A massively enlarged kidney can impact quality of life of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) patients. A recent in vitro study demonstrated that an allosteric modulator of the calcium sensing receptor decreases adenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, an important factor for kidney enlargement in ADPKD. Therefore, the present study was performed to determine whether cinacalcet, a calcium sensing receptor agonist, suppresses kidney enlargement in hemodialysis patients with ADPKD. Alteration of total kidney volume together with clinical parameters was retrospectively examined in 12 hemodialysis patients with ADPKD treated at a single institution in Japan. In the non-cinacalcet group with longer hemodialysis duration (n = 5), total kidney volume had an annual increase of 4.19 ± 1.71% during an overall period of 877 ± 494 days. In contrast, the annual rate of increase in total kidney volume in the cinacalcet group (n = 7) was significantly suppressed after cinacalcet treatment, from 3.26 ± 2.87% during a period of 734 ± 352 days before the start of cinacalcet to - 4.71 ± 6.42% during 918 ± 524 days after initiation of treatment (p = 0.047). The present findings showed that cinacalcet could be a novel therapeutic tool for suppression of kidney enlargement in hemodialysis patients with ADPKD.

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.
