  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In PCK rats and Pkd2(WS25/-) mice, pasireotide inhibited hepatorenal cystogenesis more potently than octreotide within the reported 30%-45% range.

    Summary
    We found that PAS was more potent (by 30%-45%) than OCT in reducing cAMP and cell proliferation, affecting cell cycle distribution, decreasing growth of cultured cysts in vitro, and inhibiting hepatorenal cystogenesis in vivo in PCK rats and Pkd2(WS25/-) mice.

    Summary · context
    Here we compare the effects of OCT to pasireotide (PAS; a more potent somatostatin analog with broader receptor specificity) on: (1) cAMP levels, cell cycle, proliferation, and cyst expansion in vitro using cholangiocytes derived from control and PCK rats (a model of autosomal recessive PKD [ARPKD])…
