Abstract
Introduction: The DAPA-CKD study showed a protective effect of dapagliflozin on kidney function in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with and without diabetes mellitus. Although dapagliflozin is expected to be effective also in CKD patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), its efficacy and safety in this population remain unknown because ADPKD was an exclusion criterion in the DAPA-CKD study. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of dapagliflozin in CKD patients with ADPKD.
Methods: We performed a retrospective observational study of seven patients with ADPKD treated with dapagliflozin at Toranomon Hospital, Tokyo, Japan. We analyzed changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slope and annual height-corrected total kidney volume before and after starting dapagliflozin treatment.
Results: The median observation period after starting dapagliflozin was 20 months. Four patients received concomitant tolvaptan. The eGFR slope before and after initiation of dapagliflozin could be calculated in six patients and improved in all of them except the one who did not receive a renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitor. Annual height-corrected total kidney volume increased in all patients. Concurrent tolvaptan treatment had no effect.
Conclusion: In CKD patients with ADPKD, dapagliflozin may increase kidney volume but may have a protective effect on kidney function when used concomitantly with RAS inhibitors.

About the Journal
Clinical Kidney Journal: Clinical and Translational Nephrology (ckj), an official journal of the ERA-EDTA (European Renal Association-European Dialysis and Transplant Association), is a fully open access, online only journal publishing bimonthly. The journal is an essential educational and training resource integrating clinical, translational and educational research into clinical practice. ckj aims to contribute to a translational research culture among nephrologists and kidney pathologists that helps close the gap between basic researchers and practicing clinicians and promote sorely needed innovation in the Nephrology field. All research articles in this journal have undergone peer review.
