Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To establish pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and adverse event (AE) profile of tolvaptan administered as the modified-release (MR) formulation in ADPKD subjects. The goals of this trial are two-fold:

1. To directly compare the immediate release (IR) and MR formulations
2. To determine the dose range and dose regimen for MR (dose finding)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Group 1 will have 12 subjects enrolled in a 3-period, randomized, crossover to compare multiple doses of a 90-30 mg split-dose of the tolvaptan IR formulation, a 120 mg once daily (QD) dose of the tolvaptan MR formulation, and, in an incomplete block randomization, multiple doses of either 20 mg QD, 60 mg QD, or 20 mg twice daily (BID) tolvaptan MR formulation. All dose regimens will be administered for 7 days. Placebo doses will be administered in order to mask QD vs BID treatments.

Group 2 will have 12 subjects enrolled in a 3-period, randomized, crossover to compare multiple oral doses of the tolvaptan MR formulation administered for 7 days as 20 mg QD, 60 mg QD, and 20 mg BID. Placebo capsules will be administered in order to mask QD vs BID treatments.

Subjects will have in-clinic assessments on 12 days to obtain 24-hour PK and PD data. Subjects will visit the clinic from the afternoon of Day -1 through the morning of Day 1. They will return at the end of each dosing period for a similar inpatient period (ie, from the afternoon of Day 6 through the morning of Day 8, from the afternoon of Day 13 through the morning of Day 15, from the afternoon of Day 20 through the morning of Day 22). Except for the first dose of each period and the doses taken in the clinic on the last day of each regimen and the afternoon of Days 6, 13 and 20, all other doses will be taken by the subject as an outpatient.

* Subjects with a body mass index between 19 to 35 kg/m2 (inclusive)
* Subjects with a diagnosis of ADPKD by modified Ravine criteria
* Subjects must be in good health as determined by medical history, physical examination, ECG, serum/urine biochemistry, hematology, and serology tests
* Subjects with the ability to provide written, informed consent prior to initiation of any trial-related procedures, and ability, in the opinion of the principle investigator, to comply with all requirements of the trial
* Subjects who expect to be able to complete all dosing periods and assessments within 42 (+2) days after dosing on Day 1

Exclusion Criteria
