Autosomalna dominująca wielotorbielowatość nerek
Rokowania, prognozy i postęp choroby

Autosomalna dominująca wielotorbielowatość nerek (ADPKD) cechuje się zmiennym przebiegiem klinicznym, z około 35-45% pacjentów rozwijających niewydolność nerek do 60. roku życia, a 50-75% wymagających leczenia nerkozastępczego do 75. roku życia. Rokowanie jest silnie zależne od mutacji genetycznych, gdzie mutacje w genie PKD1, zwłaszcza mutacje skracające, wiążą się z gorszym przebiegiem niż mutacje w PKD2. Mediana wieku rozpoczęcia leczenia nerkozastępczego jest podobna dla obu genotypów (około 51-52 lat). Do oceny ryzyka progresji stosuje się modele prognostyczne, takie jak Klasyfikacja Obrazowania Mayo (MIC) oparta na skorygowanej względem wzrostu objętości nerek (ht-TKV) oraz skala PROPKD, łącząca dane genetyczne i kliniczne, choć ich zastosowanie w codziennej praktyce jest ograniczone ze względu na koszty i dostępność specjalistycznych badań.

Prognoza autosomalnej dominującej wielotorbielowatości nerek

Autosomalna dominująca wielotorbielowatość nerek (ADPKD) charakteryzuje się wysoce zmienną prognozą. Rokowanie pacjentów z ADPKD jest zróżnicowane – u niektórych niewydolność nerek rozwija się wkrótce po rozpoznaniu choroby, podczas gdy inni mogą przeżyć resztę życia z relatywnie dobrze funkcjonującymi nerkami1. Średnio około połowa pacjentów z ADPKD wymaga leczenia nerkozastępczego przed ukończeniem 60. roku życia2. Badania wykazują, że u 35-45% pacjentów z ADPKD niewydolność nerek rozwija się do 60. roku życia, a do 75. roku życia 50-75% pacjentów wymaga terapii nerkozastępczej (dializy lub przeszczepienia)3.

Czynniki prognostyczne oparte na mutacjach genetycznych

Istotny wpływ na prognozę ADPKD mają czynniki genetyczne. Pacjenci z mutacjami genu PKD1, szczególnie z mutacjami skracającymi (truncating), wykazują gorsze rokowanie w porównaniu do pacjentów z mutacjami PKD245. Obserwuje się znaczącą różnicę w proporcji pacjentów, którzy wymagają leczenia nerkozastępczego w zależności od genotypu (32,3% dla PKD1 vs 20,8% dla PKD2)6.

Szczegółowa analiza typów mutacji wykazała, że rokowanie nerkowe różni się w zależności od rodzaju mutacji zarówno w genach PKD1, jak i PKD2. Pacjenci z mutacjami splicingowymi PKD1, mutacjami przesunięcia ramki odczytu (frameshift) PKD1 oraz mutacjami splicingowymi PKD2 mają szczególnie złe rokowanie78. Co interesujące, mimo obecności mutacji skracających, rokowanie nerkowe było względnie korzystne u pacjentów z mutacjami nonsensownymi910.

Należy zauważyć, że rokowanie nerkowe u pacjentów z mutacjami PKD2 nie zawsze jest korzystne, jak wcześniej sądzono. Badania wykazały, że trzech z pięciu pacjentów z mutacją PKD2 wymagało leczenia nerkozastępczego przed 58. rokiem życia1112. Porównanie pacjentów, którzy osiągnęli stadium wymagające leczenia nerkozastępczego, nie wykazało różnicy w wieku osiągnięcia tego stadium między pacjentami z mutacjami PKD1 i PKD2 (mediana 52 lata vs 51 lat)13.

Modele prognostyczne w ADPKD

Obecnie stosowanych jest kilka modeli prognostycznych do przewidywania progresji ADPKD. Najlepszym predyktorem progresji choroby jest model prognostyczny oparty na skorygowanej względem wieku objętości nerek (ht-TKV), czyli Klasyfikacja Obrazowania Mayo (Mayo Imaging Classification, MIC), która kategoryzuje pacjentów z ADPKD do klas od 1A do 1E, przy czym wyższe klasy wiążą się ze znacznie większym ryzykiem progresji do schyłkowej niewydolności nerek14.

Innym powszechnie stosowanym modelem prognostycznym jest skala PROPKD (Predicting Renal Outcome in Polycystic Kidney Disease), która łączy informacje o mutacji genetycznej i klinicznych czynnikach ryzyka, kategoryzując pacjentów z ADPKD jako osoby o niskim, pośrednim lub wysokim ryzyku progresji do schyłkowej niewydolności nerek15.

Chociaż MIC i PROPKD są obecnie najczęściej stosowanymi modelami prognostycznymi w badaniach klinicznych ADPKD, wszystkie te predykcyjne skale mają ograniczenia związane z dostępnością, wysokimi kosztami i koniecznością posiadania specjalistycznej wiedzy do uzyskania takich parametrów, przez co nie są przydatne w codziennej praktyce klinicznej16.

Biomarkery prognostyczne

W związku z ograniczeniami istniejących modeli prognostycznych, intensywnie poszukuje się biomarkerów, które mogłyby przewidywać szybką progresję choroby u pacjentów z ADPKD. Wśród różnych badanych cząsteczek, najbardziej obiecującymi biomarkerami do przewidywania progresji ADPKD są17:

18

Badania wykazały, że stosunek albuminy do kreatyniny w moczu, stosunek MCP-1 do kreatyniny w moczu oraz kopeptyna w surowicy wykazują najsilniejsze związki ze wskaźnikiem spadku eGFR i są niezależnymi predyktorami szybko postępującej choroby19. Te biomarkery mogą poprawić stratyfikację ryzyka u pacjentów z ADPKD, nawet w podgrupach, w których prognozowanie jest najbardziej wymagające i istotne20.

Dodatkowo parametry takie jak osmolalność moczu i stosunek mocznika w moczu do osocza (U/P urea) są wiarygodnymi zastępczymi biomarkerami maksymalnej zdolności zagęszczania moczu i wydają się mieć użyteczność kliniczną jako predyktory szybkiej progresji ADPKD21.

Objętość nerek jako biomarker prognostyczny

Całkowita objętość nerek (TKV), szczególnie skorygowana względem wzrostu (ht-TKV), została uznana za wczesny biomarker oceny ciężkości choroby u pacjentów z ADPKD22. Pomiary objętości torbieli i nerek przewidują ryzyko progresji do przewlekłej choroby nerek i schyłkowej niewydolności nerek, często przed zmianami w rutynowych badaniach laboratoryjnych23.

Amerykańska Agencja ds. Żywności i Leków (FDA) wydała decyzję kwalifikacyjną w formie projektu wytycznych dla całkowitej objętości nerek (TKV) jako biomarkera prognostycznego do wyboru pacjentów do badań klinicznych nowych terapii ADPKD24. TKV jest miarą wpływu ADPKD na wielkość nerek i uważa się, że przewiduje przyszły spadek funkcji nerek. Wytyczne te zawierają zalecenia kwalifikacyjne dotyczące stosowania TKV, mierzonego na początku badania, jako biomarkera wzbogacenia prognostycznego do wyboru pacjentów z ADPKD o wysokim ryzyku progresywnego spadku funkcji nerek (definiowanego jako potwierdzony 30% spadek szacowanej filtracji kłębuszkowej pacjenta (eGFR))25.

Czynniki modyfikowalne wpływające na prognozę

Ostatnio wyższy wskaźnik masy ciała (BMI ≥25kg/m2) i zespół metaboliczny zostały uznane za dodatkowe modyfikowalne czynniki ryzyka szybkiej progresji ADPKD26. Lepsze kontrolowanie czynników ryzyka sercowo-naczyniowego wydaje się być związane z mniejszym obciążeniem chorobami układu krążenia, co w dłuższej perspektywie może prowadzić do lepszego rokowania27.

Obecnie jedyną terapią zatwierdzoną przez FDA w leczeniu ADPKD jest tolwaptan28. Identyfikacja pacjentów z wyższym ryzykiem przyspieszonej progresji choroby we wczesnym stadium ma kluczowe znaczenie dla wyboru pacjentów, którzy skorzystają z wczesnego wprowadzenia terapii29.

Powikłania wpływające na prognozę

Oprócz niewydolności nerek, ADPKD może powodować szereg innych potencjalnie poważnych problemów, takich jak zawały serca i udary spowodowane wysokim ciśnieniem krwi, lub krwawienie do mózgu (krwotok podpajęczynówkowy) spowodowane tętniakiem w ścianie naczynia krwionośnego w mózgu (tętniak mózgu)30.

Ból jest częstym objawem u osób z ADPKD, doświadczanym przez ponad 60% chorych przed ukończeniem 40. roku życia31. Inicjatywa SONG-PKD (Standardized Outcomes in Nephrology-PKD) zidentyfikowała ból jako jeden z czterech podstawowych wyników w PKD, zdefiniowanych jako wyniki o krytycznym znaczeniu dla wszystkich kluczowych interesariuszy32. Pomimo uznania go za krytycznie ważny wynik, ból jest często niedostatecznie rozpoznawany i źle leczony33.

ADPKD nie zwiększa ryzyka raka nerki, ale jeśli pacjenci z ADPKD rozwiną raka nerki, istnieje większe prawdopodobieństwo, że będzie on obustronny. Rak nerki rzadko powoduje śmierć. Pacjenci zwykle umierają z powodu chorób serca (czasami zastawkowych), rozsianego zakażenia lub pękniętego tętniaka mózgu34.

Przewidywanie progresji ADPKD u dzieci

Dzieci z bardzo wczesnym początkiem ADPKD (ADPKDVEO) mają wyższe ryzyko wczesnej utraty funkcji nerek35. Badanie kliniczno-kontrolne zdefiniowało bardzo wczesny początek (VEO) jako rozpoznanie przed 18. miesiącem życia, przy czym większość pacjentów została zdiagnozowana w latach 90. XX wieku36.

Aktualnie trwa badanie kliniczne u dzieci, jednak brakuje ważnych modeli predykcyjnych do identyfikacji dzieci, które mogą cierpieć z powodu niewydolności nerek37. W przypadku dzieci wiedza na temat prognozy jest jeszcze bardziej ograniczona i potrzebne są znacznie dłuższe badania, aby osiągnąć ten sam cel38. Jednak zanim tolwaptan lub inne leki będą mogły być stosowane u dzieci z ADPKD, pilnie potrzebne są ważne modele predykcyjne do wyboru odpowiednich populacji pacjentów, a długoterminowe bezpieczeństwo i trwały efekt muszą zostać zweryfikowane39.

Podsumowanie prognozy w ADPKD

Szczegółowa ocena typów mutacji może być przydatna w przewidywaniu rokowania nerkowego u pacjentów z ADPKD4041. Współczynnik przeżycia nerek zależy od genów przyczynowych (PKD1, PKD2) oraz różnic między mutacjami skracającymi a nieskracającymi42.

Średnio współczynnik filtracji kłębuszkowej (GFR) spada o około 5 ml/min/rok po czwartej dekadzie życia43. Po wystąpieniu schyłkowej niewydolności nerek progresja choroby jest względnie stała i można ją monitorować za pomocą współczynnika filtracji kłębuszkowej (GFR)44.

Wśród różnych badanych biomarkerów, najobiecniejsze dla przewidywania progresji ADPKD są kopeptyna, apelina, angiotensynogen, FGF23, suPAR, wodorowęglany w surowicy, sFRP4, KIM1, MCP1, 2MG, CD14, fetuina A, osteopontyna, a także bezobjawowa ropomocz, osmolalność moczu i stosunek mocznika w moczu do osocza45.

Postęp w zrozumieniu genetycznych podstaw ADPKD, ilościowego określenia objawów choroby u dzieci, eksploracji ADPKD o bardzo wczesnym początku, a także farmakologicznego opóźnienia progresji choroby u dorosłych, przyczynia się do lepszego zrozumienia tej choroby i potencjalnie lepszych wyników leczenia46.

    Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is an inherited condition that causes small fluid-filled sacs called cysts to develop in the kidneys. […] Kidney function may gradually deteriorate until so much is lost that kidney failure occurs. […] The outlook for ADPKD is highly variable. Some people experience kidney failure soon after the condition is diagnosed, whereas others may live the rest of their life with their kidneys working relatively well. […] On average, around half of people with ADPKD require treatment for kidney failure by the time they’re 60. […] As well as kidney failure, ADPKD can also cause a number of other potentially serious problems, such as heart attacks and strokes caused by high blood pressure, or bleeding on the brain (subarachnoid haemorrhage) caused by a bulge in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain (brain aneurysm).

    Renal failure develops in 35 to 45% of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) by age 60. By age 75, 50 to 75% of patients require renal replacement therapy (dialysis or transplantation). On average, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) declines by about 5 mL/minute/year after the fourth decade of life. Predictors of more rapid progression to renal failure include the following: […] Cyst and kidney volume measurements predict risk of progression to chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease, often before changes in routine laboratory studies. For example, cyst size and kidney size predict 8-year risk of chronic kidney disease more accurately than age, degree of proteinuria, or serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) or creatinine. Kidney size is the most important predictor for progression, particularly total kidney volume and end-stage kidney disease, often before changes in routine laboratory studies. […] ADPKD does not increase risk of renal cancer, but if patients with ADPKD develop renal cancer, it is more likely to be bilateral. Renal cancer rarely causes death. Patients usually die of heart disease (sometimes valvular), disseminated infection, or ruptured cerebral aneurysm.

    Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) patients with PKD1 mutations, particularly those with truncating mutations, show poor prognosis. […] Renal prognosis was poor for those with PKD1 splicing, PKD1 frameshift, and PKD2 splicing mutations. […] Despite the truncating mutation, the renal prognosis was relatively favorable for patients with nonsense mutations. […] Three out of five patients with PKD2 mutation required renal replacement therapy before 58 years of age. […] In conclusion, we showed that renal prognosis differs according to mutation types in both PKD1 and PKD2, and that it was favorable for those with nonsense mutations among patients with PKD1 truncating mutations. […] It was also confirmed that renal prognosis was not always favorable in patients with PKD2 mutations.

    More recently, higher baseline body mass index (25kg/m2) and metabolic syndrome have been recognized as additional modifiable risk factors for a rapid ADPKD progression. […] After ESRD onset, disease progression is relatively constant and may be monitored by glomerular filtration rate (GFR). […] The best predictor of disease progression currently is a prognostic model based on age-adjusted htTKV, the Mayo Imaging Classification (MIC), which categorizes ADPKD patients into classes 1A through 1E with higher classes at a substantially greater risk of progression to ESRD. […] Another widely used prognostic model for predicting progression to ESRD in patients with ADPKD is the Predicting Renal Outcome in Polycystic Kidney Disease (PROPKD) score which combines underlying genetic mutation and clinical risk factors to categorize ADPKD patients as low, intermediate or high risk of progression to ESRD.

    Risk prognostication in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease can be improved by combining clinical, genetic, and volumetric data. […] Various biomarkers have been explored in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, but it is unclear which biomarkers are most suitable to integrate into risk stratification tools. […] Urinary albumin/creatinine, monocyte chemotactic protein-1/creatinine, and serum copeptin are independently associated with kidney outcomes, even in early disease and MIC 1C. […] Risk stratification tools for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) predict kidney outcomes on a group level but lack precision in patients. […] Our findings suggest that incorporating these biomarkers into ADPKD risk stratification tools will improve risk prediction, even in subgroups where prognostication is most challenging and relevant.

    Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the leading causes of end-stage renal disease. […] Considering emerging new targeted therapies for ADPKD, it has become crucial to disclose easily measurable and widely available biomarkers for identifying patients with future rapid disease progression. […] The rate of the ADPKD progress varies significantly between patients. […] Conventional kidney function measures, such as glomerular filtration rate (GFR), are not suitable for monitoring disease progression in ADPKD, particularly in its early stages. […] Height-adjusted total kidney volume (ht-TKV) has been accepted as an early biomarker for assessing disease severity in ADPKD patients. […] The aim of the current review is to provide an overview of all of the published evidence on potentially clinically valuable serum and urine biomarkers that could be used for predicting disease progression or response to therapy in patients with ADPKD.

    Renal failure develops in 35 to 45% of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) by age 60. By age 75, 50 to 75% of patients require renal replacement therapy (dialysis or transplantation). On average, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) declines by about 5 mL/minute/year after the fourth decade of life. Predictors of more rapid progression to renal failure include the following: […] Cyst and kidney volume measurements predict risk of progression to chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease, often before changes in routine laboratory studies. For example, cyst size and kidney size predict 8-year risk of chronic kidney disease more accurately than age, degree of proteinuria, or serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) or creatinine. Kidney size is the most important predictor for progression, particularly total kidney volume and end-stage kidney disease, often before changes in routine laboratory studies. […] ADPKD does not increase risk of renal cancer, but if patients with ADPKD develop renal cancer, it is more likely to be bilateral. Renal cancer rarely causes death. Patients usually die of heart disease (sometimes valvular), disseminated infection, or ruptured cerebral aneurysm.

    Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most frequent hereditary renal disease. There is an increased rate of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in ADPKD. […] ADPKD patients show intermediate control rates of CVD. A better control of CVD risk seems to be related with a lower load of CVD compared to other groups, which may lead in the long term to a better prognosis. […] Better control of cardiovascular risk factors appears to be associated with a lower burden of CVD, which may lead in the long term to a better prognosis. However, we are still far from achieving the optimal goals for the control of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with ADPKD. Further investigation is needed to deepen our knowledge about the course of CVD in ADPKD and to determine the usefulness of specific therapeutic measures to improve cardiovascular prognosis in ADPKD.

    Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is an inherited condition that causes small fluid-filled sacs called cysts to develop in the kidneys. […] Kidney function may gradually deteriorate until so much is lost that kidney failure occurs. […] The outlook for ADPKD is highly variable. Some people experience kidney failure soon after the condition is diagnosed, whereas others may live the rest of their life with their kidneys working relatively well. […] On average, around half of people with ADPKD require treatment for kidney failure by the time they’re 60. […] As well as kidney failure, ADPKD can also cause a number of other potentially serious problems, such as heart attacks and strokes caused by high blood pressure, or bleeding on the brain (subarachnoid haemorrhage) caused by a bulge in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain (brain aneurysm).
