ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to the novel treatment of ARPKD and ADPKD by administering a pharmacologically effective amount of a V.sub.2 receptor antagonist. Orally active V.sub.2 receptor antagonists such as OPC-31260, OPC-41061, SR121463A and VPA-985 are administered alone, or in combination to mammalian PKD subjects to reduce the cAMP generated by the increased expression of AVP-V.sub.2 receptor, AQP2 and AQP3, thereby reducing and/or preventing cyst enlargement.
