Brief summary
The objective of this open-label extension is to assess the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment of the rotigotine patch in subjects with early-stage idiopathic Parkinson's disease.
Detailed description
This is the open-label extension to the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled SP512 trial that assessed the efficacy and safety and tolerability of the Rotigotine patch in subjects with early-stage idiopathic Parkinson's Disease.
Interventions
Rotigotine trans-dermal patches: 10 cm2 (2 mg/24 hours); 20 cm2 (4 mg/24 hours); 30 cm2 (6 mg/24 hours); 40 cm2 (8 mg/24 hours) Optimal dosing: During the first year: The maximum Rotigotine dose allowed is 6 mg/24 hours. After the first year: allowed dose increase of Rotigotine up to a maximum of 16 mg/24 hours.

Mean Epworth Sleepiness Scale Score During the Open-label Extension.
The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is a self-administered questionnaire with 8 questions. The total ESS score is the sum of 8 item-scores and can range between 0 and 24. The higher the score, the higher the person's level of daytime sleepiness.
Time frame: Visit 9 (end of year 1), Visit 13 (end of year 2), Visit 17 (end of year 3), Visit 21(end of year 4), Visit 25 (end of year 5), Visit 29 (end of year 6), End of Treatment (last study visit or early withdrawal visit)
Population: Of the 217 subjects who entered the study, 216 are included in this summary based on the Safety Set (SS). Subject 10806 received SP512OL study medication at the final visit of SP512DB but never returned to the clinic; this subject is excluded from the Safety Set. Last observation carried forward (LOCF) was utilized.
