Abstract

The groundbreaking TEMPO 3:4 trial, which served as the basis for tolvaptan's approval, represented a revolution in the treatment of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Through this advancement, patient management for ADPKD has evolved from using broad strategies to stop the progression of chronic kidney disease to focusing on disease-specific mechanisms. Evidence-based strategies to start treatment only in patients with quickly worsening disease are essential, though, given the long-term nature of this medication and associated side effects. The European Renal Association (ERA) policy statement, released in 2016, was the first society-based guideline on the usage of tolvaptan and has been a popular resource for nephrologists when making decisions. Since then, there has been a significant accumulation of practical knowledge regarding the use of tolvaptan in ADPKD.
