Somatostatin Analogues as a Volume Reducing Treatment of Polycystic Livers (RESOLVE)

Completed
Conditions
Polycystic Liver Disease
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01354405
Lead Sponsor
Radboud University Medical Center
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of Lanreotide on polycystic liver and kidneys in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.

Detailed Description

The aim of this single center observational study is to assess the effect of lanreotide on polycystic liver and kidney. This is achieved by assessing total liver and kidney volume, and several urinary markers that could predict kidney damage or kidney dysfunction, such as GFR, blood pressure, and urinary tubular damage markers and serum biomarker FGF23.

The investigators aim to include 43 patients affected by a polycystic liver due to ADPKD. The duration of the trial will be 28 weeks. The treatment will be 24 weeks and the first screening visit will take place four weeks before start of treatment. Eligible patients will be invited to participate.
