Background

Among individuals with ADPKD, higher serum intact fibroblast growth factor 23 (iFGF23) was associated with disease progression in participants in the HALT-PKD study. PKD mutation is also an important determinant of ADPKD progression. We hypothesized that serum levels of iFGF23 and vitamin D metabolites (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D] and 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25[OH]D]) differed in adults with ADPKD according to ADPKD mutation and that the interaction between genotype and mineral metabolites would predict clinical endpoints.

Methods

921 individuals with ADPKD who participated in the HALT-PKD study A or B and had measurement of mineral metabolites (1,25(OH)2D, 25(OH)D, and iFGF23) were categorized by PKD mutation (PKD1 truncating, PKD1 non-truncating, PKD2, or no mutation detected [NMD]). The longitudinal (5-yr) association of the interactions of genotype * iFGF23 and genotype * 1,25(OH)2D with clinical endpoints of (a) 50% decline in eGFR; b) end-stage renal disease (ESRD); c) composite of 50% decline in eGFR, ESRD, or death) were evaluated using cox proportional hazards regression.

Results

Median (IQR) 1,25(OH)2D differed (PKD1 truncating: 31.0 (24.4, 39.1); PKD1 non-truncating: 32.0 (24.8, 40.1), PKD2: 33.9 (24.8,41.0); NMD: 38.2 (27.8, 46.4) pg/ml; p=0.01) and iFGF23 tended to differ (PKD1 truncating: 55.9 (40.5, 76.2); PKD1 non-truncating: 49.9 (37.7, 72.2); PKD2: 48.6 (33.9, 69.8); NMD: 49.8 (39.7, 65.8) pg/ml; p=0.07) according to PKD genotype. There was a significant interaction between FGF23 and genotype (p<0.01) for the composite endpoint in the fully adjusted models (Figure), but no significant interaction between 1,25(OH)2D and genotype for clinical endpoints.

Conclusion

ADPKD genotype interacts significantly with FGF23 to influence clinical endpoints, with the worst outcomes in individuals with a PKD1 truncating or non-truncating mutation and the highest tertile of iFGF23.
