简要总结
Investigator initiated controlled multi-centre trial in a Prospective, Randomised, Open, Blinded Endpoint (PROBE) design.
Patients will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio either to treatment with tolvaptan for six weeks followed by six weeks observation without trial medication or no tolvaptan treatment, but following the same visit and investigation plan as the subjects taking tolvaptan.
详细描述
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is the most common genetic kidney disease and the fourth leading cause of end-stage renal disease in adults Worldwide.
The tolvaptan tablet has been approved by EMA (European Medicines Agency) with the indication of slowing the progression of cysts development and renal insufficiency in adults with ADPKD. It is the newest and only possible treatment for this patient group and could be initiated in patients with evidence for rapidly progressive disease Development.
There is however in Denmark and other countries both scientific and financial reluctance to initiate this expensive treatment for several reasons e.g. selection of patients who might benefit, effect on progression of kidney disease, side effects and tolerability.
Before deciding on implementation in Denmark, more knowledge is needed. The results of the PoCKET trial will contribute with guidance on this decision.
Foremost the trial is designed to address not only the change in kidney volume, but the change in kidney function, which is what matters to the patients and their prognosis in terms of postponing time to end stage renal disease. Furthermore, important data on side effects and tolerability will be generated.
