Daily Caloric Restriction in ADPKD

Prior treatment

• Regular use of prescription or over-the-counter medications that may affect weight, appetite, food intake, or energy metabolism unless weight stable
• Inability to cooperate with or clinical contraindication for magnetic resonance imaging, including: severe claustrophobia, implants, devices, or non-removable body piercings
• Previous obesity treatment with surgery or weight loss device, except: (1) liposuction and/or abdominoplasty if performed \> 1 year before screening, (2) lap banding if the band has been removed \> 1 year before screening, (3) intragastric balloon if the balloon has been removed \> 1 year before screening (4) duodenal-jejunal bypass sleeve, if the sleeve has been removed \> 1 year before screening or 5) AspireAssist or other endoscopically placed weight loss device if the device has been removed \> 1 year before screening.

Other illness

• Diabetes mellitus
• Current smokers or history of smoking in the past 12 months
• History of hospitalization or major surgery within the last 3 months
• Uncontrolled hypertension

Lab values

• Abnormal resting electrocardiogram (ECG): serious arrhythmias, including multifocal premature ventricular contractions (PVC\'s), frequent PVC\'s (defined as 10 or more per min), ventricular tachycardia (defined as runs of 3 or more successive PVC\'s), or sustained atrial tachyarrhythmia; 2nd or 3rd degree A-V block, QTc interval \> 480 msec or other significant conduction defects
