Plasma copeptin levels predict disease progression and tolvaptan efficacy in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
In the TEMPO 3:4 Trial, treatment with tolvaptan, a vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist, slowed the increase in total kidney volume and decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).
