This international, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial will study the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of bardoxolone methyl in qualified patients with ADPKD.

The primary objectives of this study is assess the off-treatment change from baseline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at Week 52 or following a 4-week drug treatment withdrawal period in the first year of treatment and to assess safety and tolerability.
