Completed · Phase 2 · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease

In brief

To establish pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and adverse event (AE) profile of tolvaptan administered as the modified-release (MR) formulation in ADPKD subjects. The goals of this trial are two-fold: 1. To directly compare the immediate release (IR) and MR formulations 2. To determine the dose range and dose regimen for MR (dose finding)
