Brief summary
The primary objective of this study is to investigate efficacy and safety of SPM 962 in Japanese RLS patients in a multi-center, placebo-controlled double-blind parrallel group comparative study following once-daily multiple transdermal doses of SPM 962 within a range of 2.25 to 6.75 mg/day. Recommended maintainance dose range is also to be investigated.
Interventions

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change of International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group Rating Scale (IRLS) Score From the Baseline to the End of Titration/Maintenance Period | Baseline, end of maintenance period at 6 weeks | IRLS is a scale for assessing severity of restless legs syndrome symptoms. IRLS consists of ten questions. Each question is scored from 4 for the first (top) answer (usually 'very severe') to 0 for the last answer (usually none). The sum of the score of each question serves as the scale score. The scale scoring criteria are: Mild (score 1-10); Moderate (score 11-20); Severe (score 21-30); Very severe (score 31-40). A decrease in the scores means improvement. |

| Clinical Global Impression (CGI) Severity | Baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks. The data at 6 weeks after dosing is shown. | CGI is a clinician-reported scale for assessing severity of illness. The sale scoring criteria are 1: Normal, not at all ill, 2: Borderline ill, 3: Mildly ill, 4: Moderately ill, 5: Markedly ill, 6: Severely ill, 7: Among the most extremely ill patients. |
| Patient Global Impression (PGI) Improvement | Baseline, 4 weeks and 6 weeks. The data at 6 weeks after dosing is shown. | The PGI-I is a self-rated 7-point scale, with scores ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse), that assesses the improvement or worsening of a patient's illness relative to baseline at the beginning of the intervention. Scores: 1=very much improved; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change; 5=minimally worse; 6=much worse; or 7=very much worse. Moderate and marked improvement = score of 1 or 2, Without improvement = score of 4, Marked and moderate aggravation = score of 6 or 7. |
| The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) | Baseline, every two weeks | PSQI is a scale for assessing severity of sleep disorders. The score ranges from 0 to 21. 0 indicates no difficulty and 21 indicates severe difficulty. A decrease in the scores means improvement. The data at 6 weeks after dosing is shown. |
| Medical Outcome Study (MOS) Short-Form 36-Item Health Survey (SF-36) | Baseline, every two weeks | Mean Change from baseline in MOS Short Form SF-36 to 6 weeks after dosing. SF-36 is a scale for assessing health status in clinical practice and research. The scores of 36 questions are summarized into 7 sub-scales. In each sub-scale which range is 0-100, a higher score indicates a better health status. Thus a increase in the scores means improvement. |
| IRLS Each Parameter | Baseline, every two weeks | IRLS is a scale for assessing severity of restless legs syndrome symptoms. IRLS consists of ten questions. Each question is scored from 4 for the first (top) answer (usually 'very severe') to 0 for the last answer (usually none). The sum of the score of each question serves as the scale score. The scale scoring criteria are: Mild (score 1-10); Moderate (score 11-20); Severe (score 21-30); Very severe (score 31-40). A decrease in the scores means improvement. The percentage of subjects with -3 or -4 changes from baseline in each parameter at 6 weeks after dosing is shown. |

Medical Outcome Study (MOS) Short-Form 36-Item Health Survey (SF-36)
Mean Change from baseline in MOS Short Form SF-36 to 6 weeks after dosing. SF-36 is a scale for assessing health status in clinical practice and research. The scores of 36 questions are summarized into 7 sub-scales. In each sub-scale which range is 0-100, a higher score indicates a better health status. Thus a increase in the scores means improvement.

Patient Global Impression (PGI) Improvement
The PGI-I is a self-rated 7-point scale, with scores ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse), that assesses the improvement or worsening of a patient's illness relative to baseline at the beginning of the intervention. Scores: 1=very much improved; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change; 5=minimally worse; 6=much worse; or 7=very much worse. Moderate and marked improvement = score of 1 or 2, Without improvement = score of 4, Marked and moderate aggravation = score of 6 or 7.
Time frame: Baseline, 4 weeks and 6 weeks. The data at 6 weeks after dosing is shown.

The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)
PSQI is a scale for assessing severity of sleep disorders. The score ranges from 0 to 21. 0 indicates no difficulty and 21 indicates severe difficulty. A decrease in the scores means improvement. The data at 6 weeks after dosing is shown.
Time frame: Baseline, every two weeks
