Somatostatin In Patients With Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease And Moderate To Severe Renal Insufficiency

The general aim of the trial is to assess the efficacy of one year treatment with long-acting somatostatin analogue (Octreotide LAR) compared with placebo in slowing kidney and liver growth rate in patients with ADPKD and moderate/severe renal insufficiency and to assess whether and to which extent this translates into slower renal function decline over 3-year follow-up.
