Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to obtain information on the long-term safety, tolerability, and therapeutic benefit of extended release ropinirole XL, and to provide a mechanism for patients who participated in either Study 167 or Study 164 to continue receiving ropinirole XL if they chose to do so.
Interventions

Pre-assignment details
Study 101468/196 (this study; NCT#00650104) was an open-label, ropinirole XL (2-24 mg/day), continuation study for participants with Parkinson's Disease who previously completed Studies 167 or 164. Treatment was originally designed to continue for 3 years, but it was extended until ropinirole XL became commercially available in each study country.
Participants by arm
| Arm | Count |
|---|---|
| Ropinirole XL Up-titration: some participants from Study 167 started at 2 milligrams (mg) ropinirole XL once daily. Then, depending on the response/tolerance of each participant, the dose was increased in 1 mg weekly increments to 4 mg, then 2 mg weekly increments up to 12 mg, and in either 2 mg or 4 mg weekly increments up to 24 mg to the clinical optimum dose. Other Study 167 participants were increased in 2 mg weekly increments up to 8 mg and then 4 mg weekly increments up to 24 mg. Study 164 particiapnts who were on an optimal dose of ropinirole XL could go straight into the long-term treatment period, and those who were receiving ropinirole IR could be switched to the corresponding XL dose. Long-term treatment: participants received study medication until market availability of ropinirole XL. After market availability, participants would undergo a 1-week down-titration period; after protocol amendment #4 approval, participants could switch directly to the market-available dose. | 83 |

Outcome results
Number of Participants With the Indicated Number of Adverse Events (AEs)
AEs, defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, were collected to obtain data on the safety, tolerability, and benefit of ropinirole XL. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), defined as AEs that are either fatal, life threatening, disabling/incapacitating, resulting in hospitalization or prolongation of a hospital stay, a congenital abnormality/birth defect, or any important medical occurrence that the investigator regards as serious based on medical judgment, were also collected. st. med., study medication.
Time frame: Every study visit from baseline to market availability (Month 78)
Population: All participants who received at least one dose of study medication. The treatment-emergent Study 196 AEs were defined as occurring during initial titration or long-term treatment or follow up.

Unified Parkinson's Disease (PD) Rating Scale (UPDRS) Total Activities of Daily Living Scores (Intent-to-Treat Population)
The UPDRS is a clinician-based scale used to assess the longitudinal course of PD. Two of the six sections were assessed (Part II, Activities of Daily Living (ADL); Part III, Motor Examination). Both consist of a number of items (ADL, 13 items; Motor Exam., 17 items), and each item has a choice of 5 responses that are numerically scored 0-4, with 0 as the least severe response and 4 as the most severe response. ADL final score is a sum of the 13 items and may have a value between 0 (no impairment of overall activities) and 52 (severe impairment of overall activities). LTT, long-term treatment.
Time frame: Screening; Week 4; Months 3, 9, 15, 21, 27, 33, 39, 45, 51, 57, 63, 69, 75, and 78
Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population: all participants who received at least one dose of study medication and who had at least one treatment period evaluation for any parameter were included in the evaluation of the therapeutic benefit. Various n values are the result of participant attrition.

Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Motor Examination Score (ITT Population)
Two of the six UPDRS sections (Part II, Activities of Daily Living (ADL); Part III, Motor Examination) were assessed in this study. The Motor Exam has 17 items, some of which are assessed in both the left and right extremities. Each item has a choice of 5 responses that are numerically scored 0-4 (0 as the least severe, 4 as the most severe). The final score is a sum of the 17 items, with some sections requiring multiple grades assigned to each extremity, and has a value ranging from 0 (no motor impairment) to 108 (severe motor impairment).
Time frame: Screening and Month 78
Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population. Various n values are the result of participant attrition.

Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Total Activities of Daily Living Score (Responder Population)
The UPDRS is a clinician-based scale used to assess the longitudinal course of PD. Two of the six sections were assessed (Part II, Activities of Daily Living (ADL); Part III, Motor Examination). Both consist of a number of items (ADL, 13 items; Motor Exam., 17 items), and each item has a choice of 5 responses that are numerically scored 0-4, with 0 as the least severe response and 4 as the most severe response. ADL final score is a sum of the 13 items and may have a value between 0 (no impairment of overall activities) and 52 (severe impairment of overall activities). LTT, long-term treatment.
Time frame: Screening; Months 3, 9, 15, 27, and 78
Population: Responder: a subset of the ITT Population containing those participants who had a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) on the clinical global impression (CGI) scale during the study. CGI-I scores (1 to 7 \[very much worse\]) the participant's condition relative to baseline. Various n values are the result of participant attrition.
