Parent/legal guardian must provide written informed consent prior to any trial procedures; written informed assent is required from subjects who are old enough according to local laws. Age‑appropriate assent and consent documents are provided (multiple pediatric assent/ICF versions listed by age group and language in the trial documents).

Inclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- Male or female subjects between 28 days and less than 18 years of age, with clinical features that are consistent with a diagnosis of ARPKD.\n- Ability for parent/legal guardian to provide written, informed consent prior to initiation of any trial‑related procedures, and ability, in the opinion of the principal investigator, to comply with all the requirements of the trial. Ability to provide written informed assent from all subjects old enough per local laws to provide assent."}

Exclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- Premature birth (≤ 32 weeks gestational age) for infants 28 days to < 12 weeks of age.\n- Has or at risk of having significant hypovolemia (eg, subjects that lack free access to water [inability to respond to thirst, depending on age], without adequate fluid monitoring and management) as determined by investigator.\n- Clinically significant anemia, as determined by investigator.\n- Platelets < 50000 µL.\n- Severe systolic dysfunction defined as ejection fraction < 14%.\n- Taking any other experimental medications.\n- Require ventilator support.\n- Taking medications known to induce CYP3A4.\n- Having an active infection including viral that would require therapy disruptive to IMP dosing.\n- Females who are breast-feeding or who have a positive pregnancy test result prior to receiving IMP.\n- Subjects with a history of substance abuse within the last 6 months (depending on age).\n- Anuria or RRT defined as intermittent or continuous hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, hemofiltration, hemodiafiltration or history of kidney transplantation.\n- Subjects who have bladder dysfunction and/or difficulty voiding.\n- Subjects taking a vasopressin agonist (eg, desmopressin).\n- Subjects with a history of persistent noncompliance with antihypertensive or other important medical therapy.\n- Subjects having concomitant illnesses or taking medications likely to confound endpoint assessments, including taking approved (ie, marketed) therapies for the purpose of affecting PKD cysts such as tolvaptan, vasopressin antagonists, anti-sense RNA therapies, rapamycin, sirolimus, everolimus, or somatostatin analogs (ie, octreotide, sandostatin).\n- Subjects who do not agree to remain abstinent or assent to use a combination of 2 of the following highly effective birth control methods for at least 28 days before the first dose of IMP, during the trial (including during IMP dose interruptions), and for at least 30 days after the last dose of IMP.\n- Received or are scheduled to receive a liver transplant.\n- History of cholangitis within the last 6 months.\n- Has findings consistent with clinically significant portal hypertension (eg, varices, variceal bleeding, hypersplenism indicated by thrombocytopenia).\n- Evidence of syndromic conditions associated with renal cysts (other than ARPKD).\n- Abnormal liver function tests including ALT and AST, > 1.2 × ULN.\n- Has splenomegaly or portal hypertension.\n- Parents with renal cystic disease.\n- Receiving chronic diuretic that could not be adjusted after tolvaptan initiation.\n- Cannot be monitored for fluid balance.\n- Has or at risk of having sodium and potassium electrolyte imbalances, as determined by the investigator."}
