  Purpose

This study will assess whether everolimus (RAD001) is effective in preventing cyst and kidney expansion as well as worsening of renal function in patients with ADPKD and whether the application of 5 mg/day everolimus as monotherapy is safe and well tolerated.

Further study details as provided by Novartis:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Mean total kidney volume assessed by magnetic resonance imaging at 3 timepoints from the first day to the last day on study medication

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • changes in mean cyst and parenchyma volumes assessed by magnetic resonance imaging between the first and last day on study medication.
  • changes in renal function assessed by urinalysis at 8 timepoints from the first day to last day on study medication.
  • incidence of newly developing end-stage renal disease (ESRD) assessed by number of patients who require renal replacement therapy during the conduct of the trial
  • safety and tolerability of the study drug assessed by monitoring and recording of adverse events, serious adverse events, and all infections
  • changes in blood pressure between the first and last day on study medication assessed by blood pressure measurements at 10 timepoints

Estimated Enrollment: 400
