Long-Term Effects of Tolvaptan in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: Predictors of Treatment Response and Safety over 6 Years of Continuous Therapy. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2088. [PMID: 38396765 PMCID: PMC10888637 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25042088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Tolvaptan, an oral vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist, reduces renal volume expansion and loss of renal function in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Data for predictive factors indicating patients more likely to benefit from long-term tolvaptan are lacking. Data were retrospectively collected from 55 patients on tolvaptan for 6 years. Changes in renal function, progression of renal dysfunction (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR], 1-year change in eGFR [ΔeGFR/year]), and renal volume (total kidney volume [TKV], percentage 1-year change in TKV [ΔTKV%/year]) were evaluated at 3-years pre-tolvaptan, at baseline, and at 6 years. In 76.4% of patients, ΔeGFR/year improved at 6 years. The average 6-year ΔeGFR/year (range) minus baseline ΔeGFR/year: 3.024 (-8.77-20.58 mL/min/1.73 m2). The increase in TKV was reduced for the first 3 years. A higher BMI was associated with less of an improvement in ΔeGFR (p = 0.027), and family history was associated with more of an improvement in ΔeGFR (p = 0.044). Hypernatremia was generally mild; 3 patients had moderate-to-severe hyponatremia due to prolonged, excessive water intake in response to water diuresis-a side effect of tolvaptan. Family history of ADPKD and baseline BMI were contributing factors for ΔeGFR/year improvement on tolvaptan. Hyponatremia should be monitored with long-term tolvaptan administration.

Transcriptomic profiling of Polycystic Kidney Disease identifies paracrine factors in the early cyst microenvironment. Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2024; 1870:166987. [PMID: 38070582 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2023.166987] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/21/2023]
Abstract
Initial cysts that are formed upon Pkd1 loss in mice impose persistent stress on surrounding tissue and trigger a cystic snowball effect, in which local aberrant PKD-related signaling increases the likelihood of new cyst formation, ultimately leading to accelerated disease progression. Although many pathways have been associated with PKD progression, the knowledge of early changes near initial cysts is limited. To perform an unbiased analysis of transcriptomic alterations in the cyst microenvironment, microdomains were collected from kidney sections of iKsp-Pkd1del mice with scattered Pkd1-deletion using Laser Capture Microdissection. These microdomains were defined as F4/80-low cystic, representing early alterations in the cyst microenvironment, F4/80-high cystic, with more advanced alterations, or non-cystic. RNA sequencing and differential gene expression analysis revealed 953 and 8088 dysregulated genes in the F4/80-low and F4/80-high cyst microenvironment, respectively, when compared to non-cystic microdomains. In the early cyst microenvironment, several injury-repair, growth, and tissue remodeling-related pathways were activated, accompanied by mild metabolic changes. In the more advanced F4/80-high microdomains, these pathways were potentiated and the metabolism was highly dysregulated. Upstream regulator analysis revealed a series of paracrine factors with increased activity in the early cyst microenvironment, including TNFSF12 and OSM. In line with the upstream regulator analysis, TWEAK and Oncostatin-M promoted cell proliferation and inflammatory gene expression in renal epithelial cells and fibroblasts in vitro. Collectively, our data provide an overview of molecular alterations that specifically occur in the cyst microenvironment and identify paracrine factors that may mediate early and advanced alterations in the cyst microenvironment.

Effects of tolvaptan discontinuation in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: a post hoc pooled analysis. BMC Nephrol 2023; 24:182. [PMID: 37349694 PMCID: PMC10286436 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-023-03247-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Tolvaptan slows kidney function decline in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) who are at risk of rapid progression. Given that treatment requires commitment to long-term use, we evaluated the effects of tolvaptan discontinuation on the trajectory of ADPKD progression. METHODS This was a post hoc analysis of pooled data from two clinical trials of tolvaptan (TEMPO 2:4 [NCT00413777] and TEMPO 3:4 [NCT00428948]), an extension trial (TEMPO 4:4 [NCT01214421]), and an observational study (OVERTURE [NCT01430494]) that enrolled patients from the other trials. Individual subject data were linked longitudinally across trials to construct analysis cohorts of subjects with a tolvaptan treatment duration > 180 days followed by an off-treatment observation period of > 180 days. For inclusion in Cohort 1, subjects were required have ≥ 2 outcome assessments during the tolvaptan treatment period and ≥ 2 assessments during the follow-up period. For Cohort 2, subjects were required to have ≥ 1 assessment during the tolvaptan treatment period and ≥ 1 assessment during the follow-up period. Outcomes were rates of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and total kidney volume (TKV). Piecewise-mixed models compared changes in eGFR or TKV in the on-treatment and post-treatment periods. RESULTS In the Cohort 1 eGFR population (n = 20), the annual rate of eGFR change (in mL/min/1.73 m2) was -3.18 on treatment and -4.33 post-treatment, a difference that was not significant (P = 0.16), whereas in Cohort 2 (n = 82), the difference between on treatment (-1.89) and post-treatment (-4.94) was significant (P < 0.001). In the Cohort 1 TKV population (n = 11), TKV increased annually by 5.18% on treatment and 11.69% post-treatment (P = 0.06). In Cohort 2 (n = 88), the annual TKV growth rates were 5.15% on treatment and 8.16% post-treatment (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Although limited by small sample sizes, these analyses showed directionally consistent acceleration in measures of ADPKD progression following the discontinuation of tolvaptan.

Abstract
Rationale & Objective Tolvaptan is indicated for treatment of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) at risk of rapid progression. Participants aged 56-65 years constituted a small proportion of the Replicating Evidence of Preserved Renal Function: an Investigation of Tolvaptan Safety and Efficacy in ADPKD (REPRISE) trial population. We assessed effects of tolvaptan on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline in participants aged >55 years. Study Design This was a pooled data analysis from 8 studies of tolvaptan or non-tolvaptan standard of care (SOC). Setting & Participants Participants aged >55 years with ADPKD were included. Data on participants in >1 study were linked longitudinally for maximum follow-up duration, with matching for age, sex, eGFR, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage to minimize confounding. Interventions Tolvaptan or non-tolvaptan SOC. Outcomes Treatment effects on annualized eGFR decline were compared using mixed models with fixed effects for treatment, time, treatment-by-time interaction, and baseline eGFR. Results In the pooled studies, 230 tolvaptan-treated and 907 SOC participants were aged >55 years at baseline. Ninety-five participant pairs from each treatment group were matched, all in CKD G3 or G4, ranging from 56.0 to 65.0 years (tolvaptan) or from 55.1 to 67.0 years (SOC). The eGFR annual decline rate was significantly reduced by 1.66 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% CI, 0.43-2.90; P = 0.009) in the tolvaptan group compared with SOC (-2.33 versus -3.99 mL/min/1.73 m2) over 3 years. Limitations Limitations include potential bias because of study population differences (bias risk was reduced through matching and multiple regression adjustment); vascular disease history data was not uniformly collected, and therefore not adjusted; and natural history of ADPKD precludes evaluating certain clinical endpoints within the study time frame. Conclusions In individuals aged 56-65 years with CKD G3 or G4, compared to a SOC group with mean GFR rate of decline ≥3 mL/min/1.73 m2/year, tolvaptan was associated with efficacy similar to that observed in the overall indication. Funding Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development & Commercialization, Inc (Rockville, MD). Trial Registration TEMPO 2:4 (NCT00413777); phase 1 tolvaptan trial (no NCT number; trial number 156-06-260); phase 2 tolvaptan trial (NCT01336972); TEMPO 4:4 (NCT01214421); REPRISE (NCT02160145); long-term tolvaptan safety extension trial (NCT02251275); OVERTURE (NCT01430494); HALT Progression of Polycystic Kidney Disease (HALT-PKD) study B (NCT01885559).

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common genetic kidney disorder and the fourth leading cause of end-stage kidney disease. ADPKD encompasses a wide range of morbidity in addition to chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease, and its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Progress in the management of this condition includes the 2018 FDA approval of tolvaptan as the only mechanism-specific treatment available for individuals at risk of rapid progression. Assessing the risk of rapid progression is discussed at greater length in a separate article in this special issue. This section will address use and prescription of tolvaptan in more detail and address other therapies that may be considered in the treatment of patients with ADPKD.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is the third most common cause of renal failure with no definitive treatment available that can directly target the development and growth of the cysts. Endeavours are being made to retard the growth of the cysts and preservation of renal function through medical treatment. However, 50% of the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease-affected persons develop complications and end-stage renal disease by the age of fifty-five and need surgical intervention for the management of complications, creation of dialysis access and renal transplantation. This review highlights the principles and current practice pertinent to the surgical management of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.

Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Tolvaptan is associated with risk of drug-induced liver injury when used to treat autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). After this risk was described based on the clinical trials TEMPO 3:4 and TEMPO 4:4, additional data from the REPRISE trial and a long-term extension of TEMPO 4:4, REPRISE, and other tolvaptan trials in ADPKD have become available. To further characterize the hepatic safety profile of tolvaptan, an analysis of the expanded dataset was conducted. STUDY DESIGN Analysis of safety data from prospective clinical trials of tolvaptan. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS Multicenter clinical trials including more than 2,900 tolvaptan-treated participants, more than 2,300 with at least 18 months of drug exposure. INTERVENTION Tolvaptan administered twice daily in split-dose regimens. OUTCOMES Frequency of liver enzyme level increases detected by regular laboratory monitoring. RESULTS In the placebo-controlled REPRISE trial, more tolvaptan- than placebo-treated participants (38 of 681 [5.6%] vs 8 of 685 [1.2%]) experienced alanine aminotransferase level increases to >3× the upper limit of normal (ULN), similar to TEMPO 3:4 (40 of 957 [4.4%] vs 5 of 484 [1.0%]). No participant in REPRISE or the long-term extension experienced concurrent alanine aminotransferase level increases to >3× ULN and total bilirubin increases to >2× ULN ("Hy's Law" laboratory criteria). Based on the expanded dataset, liver enzyme increases most often occurred within 18 months after tolvaptan initiation and were less frequent thereafter. Increased levels returned to normal or near normal after treatment interruption or discontinuation. Thirty-eight patients were rechallenged with tolvaptan after the initial drug-induced liver injury episode, with return of liver enzyme level increases in 30; 1 additional participant showed a clinical "adaptation" after the initial episode, with resolution of the enzyme level increases despite continuation of tolvaptan. LIMITATIONS Retrospective analysis. CONCLUSIONS The absence of Hy's Law cases in REPRISE and the long-term extension trial support monthly liver enzyme monitoring during the first 18 months of tolvaptan exposure and every 3 months thereafter to detect and manage enzyme level increases, as is recommended on the drug label. FUNDING Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development & Commercialization, Inc. TRIAL REGISTRATION Trials included in the dataset were registered at ClinicalTrials.gov with study numbers NCT00428948 (TEMPO 3:4), NCT01214421 (TEMPO 4:4), NCT02160145 (REPRISE), and NCT02251275 (long-term extension).

Abstract
Background Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common renal monogenic disease, characterized by bilateral accumulation of renal fluid-filled cysts leading to progressive renal volume enlargement and gradual impairment of kidney function, often resulting in end-stage renal disease. Kuwait could provide valuable genetic insights about ADPKD, including intrafamilial phenotypic variation, given its large household size. This study aims to provide a comprehensive description of the pathogenic variants linked to ADPKD in the Kuwaiti population using multiple genetic analysis modalities and to describe and analyse the ADPKD phenotypic spectrum in terms of kidney function, kidney volume and renal survival. Methods A total of 126 ADPKD patients from 11 multiplex families and 25 singletons were recruited into the study. A combination of targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS), long-range polymerase chain reaction, Sanger sequencing and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification were utilized for genetic diagnosis. Clinical evaluation was conducted through renal function testing and ultrasonographic kidney volume analysis. Results We identified 29 ADPKD pathogenic mutations from 36 families achieving an overall molecular genetic diagnostic rate of 112/126 (88.9%), including 29/36 (80.6%) in families. A total of 28/36 (77.8%) families had pathogenic mutations in PKD1, of which 17/28 (60.7%) were truncating, and 1/36 (2.8%) had a pathogenic variant in the IFT140 gene. A total of 20/29 (69%) of the identified ADPKD mutations were novel and described for the first time, including a TSC2-PKD1 contiguous syndrome. Clinical analysis indicated that genetically unresolved ADPKD cases had no apparent association between kidney volume and age. Conclusion We describe for the first time the genetic landscape of ADPKD in Kuwait. The observed genetic heterogeneity underlining ADPKD along with the wide phenotypic spectrum reveal the level of complexity in disease pathophysiology. ADPKD genetic testing could improve the care of patients through improved disease prognostication, guided treatment and genetic counselling. However, to fulfil the potential of genetic testing, it is important to overcome the hurdle of genetically unresolved ADPKD cases.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most commonly inherited kidney disease. In the absence of targeted therapies, it invariably progresses to advanced chronic kidney disease. To date, the only approved treatment is tolvaptan, a vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist that has been demonstrated to reduce cyst growth and attenuate the decline in kidney function. However, it has various side effects, the most frequent of which is aquaresis, leading to a significant discontinuation rate. The strategies proposed to combat aquaresis include the use of thiazides or metformin and a reduction in the dietary osmotic load. Beyond the prescription of tolvaptan, which is limited to those with a rapid and progressive decline in kidney function, dietary interventions have been suggested to protect against disease progression. Moderate sodium restriction, moderate protein intake (up to 0.8 g/kg/day), avoidance of being overweight, and increased water consumption are recommended in ADPKD guidelines, though all with low-grade evidence. The aim of the present review is to critically summarize the evidence on the effect of dietary modification on ADPKD and to offer some strategies to mitigate the adverse aquaretic effects of tolvaptan.

Abstract
Primary cilia play counterregulatory roles in cystogenesis—they inhibit cyst formation in the normal renal tubule but promote cyst growth when the function of polycystins is impaired. Key upstream cilia-specific signals and components involved in driving cystogenesis have remained elusive. Recent studies of the tubby family protein, Tubby-like protein 3 (TULP3), have provided new insights into the cilia-localized mechanisms that determine cyst growth. TULP3 is a key adapter of the intraflagellar transport complex A (IFT-A) in the trafficking of multiple proteins specifically into the ciliary membrane. Loss of TULP3 results in the selective exclusion of its cargoes from cilia without affecting their extraciliary pools and without disrupting cilia or IFT-A complex integrity. Epistasis analyses have indicated that TULP3 inhibits cystogenesis independently of the polycystins during kidney development but promotes cystogenesis in adults when polycystins are lacking. In this review, we discuss the current model of the cilia-dependent cyst activation (CDCA) mechanism in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and consider the possible roles of ciliary and extraciliary polycystins in regulating CDCA. We then describe the limitations of this model in not fully accounting for how cilia single knockouts cause significant cystic changes either in the presence or absence of polycystins. Based on available data from TULP3/IFT-A-mediated differential regulation of cystogenesis in kidneys with deletion of polycystins either during development or in adulthood, we hypothesize the existence of cilia-localized components of CDCA (cCDCA) and cilia-localized cyst inhibition (CLCI) signals. We develop the criteria for cCDCA/CLCI signals and discuss potential TULP3 cargoes as possible cilia-localized components that determine cystogenesis in kidneys during development and in adult mice.

Abstract
The SLC9 gene family encodes Na+/H+ exchangers (NHEs), a group of membrane transport proteins critically involved in the regulation of cytoplasmic and organellar pH, cell volume, as well as systemic acid-base and volume homeostasis. NHEs of the SLC9A subfamily (NHE 1–9) are well-known for their roles in human physiology and disease. Much less is known about the two members of the SLC9B subfamily, NHA1 and NHA2, which share higher similarity to prokaryotic NHEs than the SLC9A paralogs. NHA2 (also known as SLC9B2) is ubiquitously expressed and has recently been shown to participate in renal blood pressure and electrolyte regulation, insulin secretion and systemic glucose homeostasis. In addition, NHA2 has been proposed to contribute to the pathogenesis of polycystic kidney disease, the most common inherited kidney disease in humans. NHA1 (also known as SLC9B1) is mainly expressed in testis and is important for sperm motility and thus male fertility, but has not been associated with human disease thus far. In this review, we present a summary of the structure, function and regulation of expression of the SLC9B subfamily members, focusing primarily on the better-studied SLC9B paralog, NHA2. Furthermore, we will review the potential of the SLC9B subfamily as drug targets.

Abstract
Background and objective Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited renal disorder; it affects people of all ethnic groups and is found in up to 10% of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Dietary intervention is important in people with renal disease, and it has been linked to greater estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) preservation. Tolvaptan, an orally-active nonpeptide, selective arginine vasopressin (AVP) V2R antagonist, was recently licensed in numerous countries for the treatment of ADPKD. The aim of this study was to assess the role of dietary intervention in decreasing the osmotic load on the urine volume and its impact on the quality of life (QOL) of patients with ADPKD on tolvaptan. Methods This prospective cohort study was carried out at a Hamilton nephrology genetics clinic. ADPKD patients on well-tolerated doses of tolvaptan for three months were included in the study. Gitelman and Bartter Symptom Health-related QOL questionnaire was used among the study participants. Results Our study consisted of nine adult patients with ADPKD who were on a stable dose of tolvaptan therapy. Patients had laboratory values for urine volume, sodium (Na), and urea. No significant difference was found between pre- and post-diet intervention values in 24-hour urine volume (5.9 vs. 5.49 L/d; p=0.423), urine Na (p=0.174), and 24-hour urine urea (p=0.404). Conclusion Dietary intervention in ADPKD patients on tolvaptan therapy can play a vital role in improving their QOL. Further research including interventional studies and clinical trials with larger sample sizes is needed to gain deeper insight into the subject.

Abstract
Background Tolvaptan is the only available disease-modifying treatment for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Prior to October 2020 access to tolvaptan in Australia was restricted by a controlled monitoring and distribution program called IMADJIN®. Focusing on hepatic safety, the IMADJIN® program collected real-world data on patients with ADPKD. A retrospective, secondary data analysis of the IMADJIN® dataset was undertaken to determine the time to all-cause discontinuation of tolvaptan in Australia. Methods Demographic and treatment data from 17 September 2018 to 30 September 2020 were extracted from the IMADJIN® dataset. Treatment persistence was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier methods, and Cox’s proportional hazard models were used to analyze differences in treatment persistence by age, sex and location. Results Four hundred seventy-nine patients with ADPKD were included in the analysis. After a median follow-up of 12.0 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.6, 23.4), the Kaplan-Meier estimation of 12-month persistence was 76.7% (95% CI 72.2, 80.5%). 114 (23.8%) patients discontinued treatment; sex, state, and remoteness did not significantly affect treatment persistence. Patients in the youngest tertile were more likely to discontinue compared to older ages (p = 0.049). Reasons for discontinuation included: aquaretic tolerability (4.2%), hepatic adverse events (abnormal liver function tests) (2.1%), disease progression (1.5%), and acute kidney injury (0.2%). Patients with a lack of aquaretic tolerance had shorter time to discontinuation. Hepatic toxicity events were initially observed 3 months after tolvaptan initiation and were less prevalent over time. Conclusions Persistence to tolvaptan in the real-world IMADJIN® dataset was 76%. Discontinuation due to hepatic events was low. Prescribers should take extra care when initiating treatment in younger patients as they are more likely to discontinue tolvaptan compared to older individuals. Nevertheless, the precise reason for this observation remains to be elucidated. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12882-021-02607-4.

Abstract
Background Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited kidney disorder, accounting for approximately 5% of all ESRD cases worldwide. As a vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist, tolvaptan is the FDA-approved therapeutic agent for ADPKD, which is only made available to a limited number of adult patients; however, its efficacy in pediatric patients has not been reported widely. Summary Tolvaptan was shown to delay ADPKD progression in the Tolvaptan Efficacy and Safety in Management of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease and Its Outcomes (TEMPO) 3:4 study, Replicating Evidence of Preserved Renal Function: an Investigation of Tolvaptan Safety and Efficacy in ADPKD (REPRISE) trial, and other clinical studies. In addition to its effects on aquaretic adverse events and alanine aminotransferase elevation, the effect of tolvaptan on ADPKD is clear, sustained, and cumulative. While ADPKD is a progressive disease, the early intervention has been shown to be important and beneficial in hypotheses as well as in trials. The use of tolvaptan in pediatric ADPKD involves the following challenges: patient assessment, quality of life assessment, cost-effectiveness, safety, and tolerability. The ongoing, phase 3b, 2-part study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02964273) on the evaluation of tolvaptan in pediatric ADPKD (patients aged 12-17 years) may help obtain some insights. Key Messages This review focuses on the rationality of tolvaptan use in pediatric patients with ADPKD, the associated challenges, and the suggested therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant (AD) and autosomal recessive (AR) polycystic kidney diseases (PKD) are severe multisystem genetic disorders characterized with formation and uncontrolled growth of fluid-filled cysts in the kidney, the spread of which eventually leads to the loss of renal function. Currently, there are no treatments for ARPKD, and tolvaptan is the only FDA-approved drug that alleviates the symptoms of ADPKD. However, tolvaptan has only a modest effect on disease progression, and its long-term use is associated with many side effects. Therefore, there is still a pressing need to better understand the fundamental mechanisms behind PKD development. This review highlights current knowledge about the fundamental aspects of PKD development (with a focus on ADPKD) including the PC1/PC2 pathways and cilia-associated mechanisms, major molecular cascades related to metabolism, mitochondrial bioenergetics, and systemic responses (hormonal status, levels of growth factors, immune system, and microbiome) that affect its progression. In addition, we discuss new information regarding non-pharmacological therapies, such as dietary restrictions, which can potentially alleviate PKD.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common hereditary kidney disease. It is characterized by cyst growth in the kidneys, resulting in kidney enlargement and end-stage kidney disease. The polycystic kidney disease 1 (PKD1) and PKD2 have been identified as genes related to ADPKD and their significance in the molecular pathology of the disease has been studied. A disease-modifying drug has been approved; therefore, it has become important to identify patients at a high risk of kidney disease progression. Genetic tests, image analysis methods, and clinical factors for kidney disease progression prediction have been established. This review describes genetic and clinical characteristics, and discusses ongoing studies in Korean ADPKD patients.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease constitutes the most prevalent hereditary kidney disease, associated with high rates of morbidity leading eventually to end-stage renal disease. Tolvaptan is a selective vasopressin antagonist and has emerged as a promising therapeutic option for patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. The present review summarized current evidence regarding the safety profile of tolvaptan in patients with the disease. Consistent with its pharmacological action, aquaretic adverse events represent the most common side effects of tolvaptan, consisting of polyuria, pollakiuria and polydipsia. Gradual dose titration based on urinary osmolality, as well as dietary interventions aiming to reduce solute excretion, have been proposed as potential strategies to mitigate polyuria. In addition, tolvaptan administration may be complicated by liver injury, characterized by alanine aminotransferase and bilirubin elevations. Hepatotoxicity has been suggested to be triggered by impaired biliary clearance, activation of innate immunity and increased oxidative stress. Frequent monitoring of liver function tests has been shown to be effective in preventing Hy’s Law and liver failure cases. Uric acid elevation due to reduced renal excretion may lead to hyperuricemia and gout, although no drug discontinuations have been linked to these events. Future studies should confirm the safety profile of tolvaptan in large-scale real-world studies, clarify the pathogenetic pathways leading to hepatotoxicity and define its role in special populations, especially pediatric patients.

Abstract
Introduction Tolvaptan slowed estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline in subjects with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in TEMPO 3:4 and REPRISE trials. Tolvaptan effects in subjects with eGFR 15 to 24 ml/min per 1.73 m2 were not investigated. This post hoc analysis retrospectively investigated eGFR decline in REPRISE versus an open-label, phase 3b extension trial (open-label extension [OLE] NCT02251275) in subjects who received placebo in REPRISE and tolvaptan in OLE with eGFR 15 to 24 and 25 to 29 ml/min per 1.73 m2, respectively. Methods One data subset comprised subjects with OLE baseline eGFR 15 to 29 ml/min per 1.73 m2 who had received placebo in REPRISE and began tolvaptan in OLE. The second comprised subjects who had received tolvaptan in REPRISE and were matched to REPRISE placebo-treated subjects for REPRISE baseline characteristics. Annualized eGFR slopes in REPRISE versus OLE were compared within the REPRISE placebo (i.e., placebo vs. tolvaptan treatment) and tolvaptan (i.e., 2 periods of tolvaptan treatment) subsets. Results Mean annualized eGFR slopes (ml/min per 1.73 m2) during tolvaptan treatment in OLE versus placebo treatment in REPRISE were −3.4 versus −5.2 for subjects with OLE baseline eGFR 15 to 29 (difference, 1.7; P < 0.001), −3.6 versus −5.4 with baseline eGFR 15 to 24 (difference, 1.8; P < 0.001), and −3.3 versus −4.9 with baseline eGFR 25 to 29 (difference, 1.6; P < 0.001). In REPRISE tolvaptan subjects who continued tolvaptan in OLE, treatment effect was maintained (no difference between mean annualized eGFR slopes). Conclusion Initiating or maintaining tolvaptan therapy significantly delayed eGFR decline in subjects with baseline eGFR 15 to 24 and 25 to 29 ml/min per 1.73 m2.

Abstract
The antidiuretic hormone arginine-vasopressin (AVP) forms a signaling complex with the V2 receptor (V2R) and the Gs protein, promoting kidney water reabsorption. Molecular mechanisms underlying activation of this critical G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling system are still unknown. To fill this gap of knowledge, we report here the cryo-electron microscopy structure of the AVP-V2R-Gs complex. Single-particle analysis revealed the presence of three different states. The two best maps were combined with computational and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy constraints to reconstruct two structures of the ternary complex. These structures differ in AVP and Gs binding modes. They reveal an original receptor-Gs interface in which the Gαs subunit penetrates deep into the active V2R. The structures help to explain how V2R R137H or R137L/C variants can lead to two severe genetic diseases. Our study provides important structural insights into the function of this clinically relevant GPCR signaling complex.

Tolvaptan treatment in an adult Fontan patient with protein-losing enteropathy: a serial 23Na-MRI investigation. Ther Adv Chronic Dis 2021; 12:20406223211004005. [PMID: 33948157 PMCID: PMC8053834 DOI: 10.1177/20406223211004005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2021] [Accepted: 03/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is a severe complication of the univentricular Fontan circulation and associated with disturbances in salt and water homeostasis. Fontan patients with PLE have a poor prognosis, with increased morbidity and mortality. Due to limited therapeutic strategies, patients are often treated only symptomatically. Methods: We report our first experience of Tolvaptan (TLV) treatment in a Fontan patient with PLE, severe volume retention and hyponatraemia, refractory to conventional diuretic therapy. In addition to clinical parameters, we monitored drug effects including tissue sodium and volume status via serial 23Na-magnetic resonance imaging (23Na-MRI) and bioimpedance spectroscopy compared with age-matched controls. Results: 23Na-MRI identified elevated tissue sodium, which decreased under TLV treatment, as well as volume status, while serum sodium increased and the patient’s symptoms improved. During long-term treatment, we were able to differentiate between sodium and volume status in our patient, suggesting that TLV uncoupled body sodium from water. Conclusion: TLV in addition to loop diuretics improved clinical symptoms of PLE and lowered tissue sodium overload. Long-term effects should be further evaluated in Fontan patients.
