About this study

Official title: Role of ROS and cAMP-PKA Signaling-related Biomarkers on Renal Disease Severity and Progression in ADPKD

The primary objective is to determine the prognostic value of markers of ROS and cAMP-PKA signaling to assess disease severity and progression in patients with ADPKD.

Read the detailed description

Individuals with ADPKD are born with normal renal function that is preserved for several decades. By the time the GFR starts to decline, most of the kidneys have been replaced by cysts. The median age of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is 54 years for PKD1 and 74 years for PKD2, but the rate of disease progression varies widely among individuals. This variability, along with the maintenance of normal GFR until the late stages, represents a significant challenge for nephrologists in following these patients. It is difficult to predict disease progression or evaluate a new therapy based solely on renal function markers at an early stage. On the other hand, if new therapies are implemented when GFR starts to decline and most irreversible damage has occurred, they are less likely to be effective. Hence, identifying robust, early disease biomarkers predictive of GFR decline and disease progression is crucial.

The improvement of imaging techniques over the years has provided insights into the natural history of the disease and facilitated the observation of its structural progression. The Consortium for Radiologic Imaging Studies of PKD (CRISP) study has shown that in patients with ADPKD, the increase in kidney and cyst volumes directly correlates with GFR decline, underscoring the potential of TKV to monitor disease progression and as a primary or secondary endpoint in clinical trials for ADPKD. However, TKV has limitations as a biomarker, as it is fairly crude and does not fully capture the pathophysiological processes underlying the development and progression of the disease. Therefore, biomarkers related to the underlying molecular mechanisms may detect renal injury before permanent anatomical damage occurs.

The investigators' broad objective is to determine the value of NOX4, as well as surrogate markers for ROS, mitochondrial injury, and metabolic pathways, to assess disease severity and progression from early stages.

Participants in this study will have blood and urine samples collected to determine biomarkers of oxidative stress, antioxidant response, related metabolite levels, as well as kidney injury markers. In addition, an abdominal MRI will be performed to determine the patient's total kidney volume (TKV).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in height adjusted Total kidney volume (htTKV) (time frame: Baseline to 24 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Nov 2026.
