About this trial

The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the impact of a specific diet (low salt, limited caffeine, high potassium, low phosphate, limited protein, limited carbohydrate intake, adequate water intake) on changes in serum and urinary biomarkers, total kidney volume (TKV), and cyst progression in subjects with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).

Researchers will compare the results of subjects in the study diet (interventional) arm to the results of subjects in the regular diet (control) arm.
