STOP-PKD: SGLT2-inhibition to Improve Prognosis in Polycystic Kidney Disease


Sponsor

University of Cologne

Enrollment

420 participants

Start Date

Dec 16, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is the most common genetic cause of kidney failure. The only approved treatment for ADPKD - tolvaptan - is limited in its use by massive therapy-associated polyuria. This trial tests if the SGLT2-inhibitor dapagliflozin slows down the loss of kidney function in ADPKD.

  • Indicators of rapid progression, either of the following:
  • Mayo class 1D-E
  • Mayo class 1C AND EITHER
