Assessment of Longitudinal Changes in Endothelial Function and Oxidative Stress in Normotensive Patients With ADPKD

May 3, 2024 updated by: Maria V. Irazabal Mira, Mayo Clinic

Assessment of Longitudinal Changes in Endothelial Function and Oxidative Stress in Normotensive Patients With Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) - A Pilot Study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) present with abnormal endothelial function, increased levels of NOX4 activity and mitochondrial abnormalities, contributing to oxidative stress from early stages that correlate with disease severity.

Detailed Description

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common monogenic and the fourth cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in adults worldwide. Cardiovascular diseases are the most important non-cystic complications and continue to be the leading cause of premature mortality in these patients. Hypertension (HTN) is present in approximately 50% of the patients at early stages, and increases to nearly 100% at ESRD. Furthermore, HTN contributes to the underlying renal disease progression. Nitric oxide (NO) associated endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation has been shown to be impaired in small subcutaneous resistance vessels from patients with ADPKD before the development of HTN. However, the principal contributors to vascular dysfunction remain unclear.

The investigators broad objective is to evaluate the presence and extent of endothelial dysfunction and its association with oxidative stress in young normotensive patients with ADPKD, with the long term goal of timely intervention to slow the progression of the disease in these patients.

Participants in this study will have their endothelial function assessed using a non-invasive technique, peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT), which has been shown to be a useful, highly reproducible, and non-operator dependent method for non-invasive assessment of vascular health. The investigators will assess longitudinal changes in endothelial function using PAT with the intention of establishing if this methodology offers the potential of non-invasive measures of early vascular disease in young normotensive patients with ADPKD. Biochemical markers of endothelial dysfunction will be assessed concomitantly. In addition, the investigators will assess oxidative stress levels in these patients, with the intention of determining the association with endothelial dysfunction.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 40 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
