530 canadians with kidney disease share real-world drug results
NCT ID NCT02925221
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study followed 530 adults with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) who were already taking the drug tolvaptan (JINARC™). Researchers wanted to see how the medication affected their quality of life, pain, and daily activities, as well as how long it took before they needed dialysis or a kidney transplant. The study did not test a new treatment—it simply observed real-world experiences to better understand the drug's impact.
