pre-randomization eGFR measurements.

does not meet recommended criteria for treatment, refuses to initiate or does not
tolerate treatment with tolvaptan).

pregnancy test (ß-human chorionic gonadotropin [ß-hCG]) at the screening visit and a
negative urine pregnancy test at the baseline visit.

- Female participants of childbearing potential and male participants must have had
agreed to practice true abstinence in line with their preferred and usual lifestyle or

Key exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria:

- Systolic blood pressure greater than (>) 160 millimeters of Mercury (mmHg) at Run-in
and Baseline visits.

- Administration within 3 months prior to the screening visit of tolvaptan or other
Polycystic Kidney Disease-modifying agents (somatostatin analogues).

- Participation in another investigational interventional study or use of IMP, within 3
months or 5 half lives, whichever was longer, before randomization.

- The participant had a positive result of any of the following tests: hepatitis B
surface antigen (HBsAg), anti-hepatitis C virus (anti HCV) antibodies, anti-human
immunodeficiency virus 1 and 2 antibodies (anti HIV1 and anti HIV2 Ab). Participants
with a positive hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) test were eligible if other
criteria were met (i.e., negative tests for: HBsAg, hepatitis B core antibody
[HBcAb]). Participants immune due to natural infection (positive hepatitis B surface
antibody (HBsAb), negative hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and positive hepatitis
B core antibody [HBcAb]) were eligible if they had negative hepatitis B vaccine (HBV)
deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) test.

- A history of drug and/or alcohol abuse within the past year prior to the screening
visit. A history of alcohol dependence within the 5 years prior to the screening
visit.

- The participant was scheduled for in-patient hospitalization including elective
surgery, during the study.

- The participant had a clinically significant, uncontrolled medical condition that, in
the opinion of the investigator, would put the safety of the participant at risk
through participation, or which would affect the efficacy or safety analysis if the
condition exacerbated during the study, or that might significantly interfere with
study compliance, including all prescribed evaluations and follow-up activities.

- The participants, in the opinion of the investigator, was unable to adhere to the
requirements of the study or unable to undergo study assessments (e.g., had
contraindications to pupillary dilation or unable to undergo magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) [For example: participant's weight exceeds weight capacity of the MRI,
ferromagnetic metal prostheses, aneurysm clips, severe claustrophobia, large
abdominal/back tattoos, etc.]).

entering the study.

- The participants did not adhere to treatment (less than [<] 70 percent [%] compliance
rate) in the run-in.

cataract greater than or equal to (>=)one-quarter of the lens circumference (Grade
cortical cataract-2 [COR-2]) or a posterior subcapsular cataract >=2 millimeter (Grade
posterior subcapsular cataract-2 [PSC-2]). Participant with nuclear cataracts would
not be excluded.

- The participant was then receiving potentially cataractogenic medications, including a
chronic regimen (more frequently than every 2 weeks) of any route of corticosteroids
(including medium and high potency topical steroids) or any medication that might
cause cataract, according to the Prescribing Information.

of Gilbert syndrome. Participants with the Gilbert syndrome should have had no
additional symptoms or signs which suggested hepatobiliary disease and serum total
bilirubin level no more than 3 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) (51 [micromoles per
Liter] mcmol/L) with conjugated bilirubin less than 20% of the total bilirubin

Summary
Brief summary
Primary Objective:

To determine the effect of venglustat on the rate of total kidney volume (TKV) growth (Stage
1) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline in participants at risk of rapidly
progressive Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) (Stage 2).

Secondary Objectives:

- To determine the effect of venglustat on the rate of renal function decline (Stage 1)
and on the rate of TKV growth (Stage 2).

- To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of venglustat in ADPKD participants (Stages 1 and
2).

- To determine the effect of venglustat on pain and fatigue, based on participant reported
diary (Stages 1 and 2).

- Safety/tolerability objectives:

- To characterize the safety profile of venglustat (Stages 1 and 2).

- To evaluate the effect of venglustat on mood using Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II)
(Stages 1 and 2).

- To evaluate the effect of venglustat on the lens by ophthalmological examination (Stages
1 and 2).
