Study summary

Abdominal pain, sometimes severe, is a known symptom of polycystic kidney disease (PKD) related to the cystic expansion. This study will investigate whether the vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist lixivaptan can alleviate intractable pain in a pediatric PKD patient who cannot tolerate the related vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist tolvaptan.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Capable of understanding the written /assent.
  2. Provides signed and witnessed written informed consent/assent, and agrees to comply with protocol requirements and study-related procedures.
  3. At least 15 years of age at the time of Screening.
  4. Subject has been diagnosed with ADPKD by modified Ravine criteria:

    • If the subject has a family history of ADPKD, a minimum of 3 cysts per kidney by sonography or 5 cysts by computerized tomography or MRI; or
    • If the subject does not have a family history of ADPKD, a minimum of 10 cysts per kidney by any radiologic method and exclusion of other cystic kidney diseases.
  5. Considered by the Investigator to be in good health relative to underlying CKD status and clinically stable with respect to underlying CKD, based on medical evaluation that includes medical and surgical history, as well as a complete physical examination including vital signs, , and laboratory test results.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Has a known sensitivity or idiosyncratic reaction to any compound present in lixivaptan or any compound listed as being present in the formulation.
  2. Is pregnant or breast feeding.
  3. Has taken any drug or used an investigational device within 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to Screening.
  4. Has taken tolvaptan, conivaptan, somatostatin analogs (e.g. lanreotide, pasireotide, octreotide, etc.), mTOR kinase inhibitors (e.g. everolimus, sirolimus, etc.), or oral or intravenous antibiotics within 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to Day 1.
  5. Has a history of testing positive for surface antigen, , or (HIV).
  6. Consumes grapefruit or Seville oranges (or their juices, or foods containing their extract) from 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication and until after the final dose.
  7. Has liver disease, or clinically significant liver function abnormalities or serology other than that expected for ADPKD with cystic liver disease at baseline.
  8. Has any clinically significant laboratory abnormalities or concomitant conditions other than ADPKD (including treatment for such conditions) that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could either interfere with the study drug or pose an unacceptable risk to the subject.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
