Open-Label Extension Study With REQUIP PR for Subjects From Study ROP111528

This open label extension study allows assessment of the long term safety profile of REQUIP PR in subjects who have completed 24 weeks of randomised treatment in study ROP111528.

Subjects must not have a break in study medication between completing the feeder study and entering extension study, treatment must be continuous.

Subjects will be dispensed down-titration medication at the study completion/early withdrawal visit and should be scheduled to return for a follow up visit 4 to 14 days after the last dose of study medication.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subjects must have completed 24 weeks of randomised treatment in study ROP111528(and must have completed the one-week downtitration at the end of treatment/early withdrawal).
  • Subjects must not have a break in medication between completing the downtitration phase for studies ROP111528 and beginning treatment in this extension study.
  • Women of child-bearing potential must be practicing a clinically accepted method of contraception during the study and for one month following completion of the study. Acceptable contraceptive methods include oral contraception, surgical sterilization, intrauterine device (IUD), or diaphragm IN ADDITION to spermicidal foam and condom on male partner, or systemic contraception (e.g. Norplant System).
  • Provide written informed consent for this study.
  • Be willing and able to comply with study procedures.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with any ongoing clinically significant adverse events at the end of the study ROP111528.
  • Subjects with severe, clinically significant condition(s) other than Parkinson's disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, would render the subject unsuitable for the study (e.g., psychiatric, hematological, renal, hepatic, endocrinology, neurological (other than Parkinson's disease), cardiovascular, or active malignancy (other than basal cell carcinoma).
  • Subjects with clinically significant abnormalities in Laboratory or ECG tests at the end of the study ROP111528.
  • Subjects with severe dizziness or fainting due to postural hypotension on standing.
  • Withdrawal, introduction, or change in dose of hormone replacement therapy and/or any drug known to substantially inhibit CYP1A2 (e.g. ciprofloxacine, fluvoxamine, cimetidine, ethinyloestradiol) or induce CYP1A2 (e.g. tobacco, omeprazole) within 7 days prior to enrolment. Subjects already on chronic therapy with any of these agents may be enrolled but doses must have remained stable from 7 days prior to enrolment through the end of the treatment period.
  • Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
  • Use of an investigational drug throughout the treatment period.

Treatment and study plan

ReQuip PR

Drug

Eligible patients will be dispensed medication to uptitrate their REQUIP PR dose (2, 4, 6, 8mg respectively) during the first 4 weeks of treatment. During the 24 week treatment phase, the subjects dose will be adjusted according to the recommended schedule to achieve symptomatic control.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With the Indicated Types of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) During the On-Treatment Phase (Comprised of the Open-label Treatment Phase and the Down-titration Phase)

    Time frame: From the start of treatment (Baseline) up to Week 25

    AE=any untoward medical occurrence (UMO), temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product (MP), whether or not considered related to the MP. SAE=any UMO that, at any dose, results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, or is a congenital anomoly/birth defect. The Investigator determined if an AE/SAE was related to investigational product. Medical/scientific judgment was used to determine whether SAE reporting was appropriate in situations in which an event may not have met the SAE definition.

  2. Number of Participants With the Indicated Adverse Events Related to Investigational Product During the On-treatment Phase

    Time frame: From the start of treatment (Baseline) up to Week 25

    An adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. The Investigator determined if an AE/SAE was related to investigational product. The On-Treatment Phase is comprised of the Open-label Treatment Phase and the Down-titration Phase.

  3. Number of Participants With an Adverse Event During the Follow-up Phase

    Time frame: 4- to 14-day Follow-up Phase, beginning after the date of the last dose of down-titration medication (up to and during Study Weeks 26 and 27)

    AE=any untoward medical occurrence (UMO), temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product (MP), whether or not considered related to the MP. SAE=any UMO that, at any dose, results in death, is life threatening, requires hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, or is a congenital anomoly/birth defect. The Investigator determined if an AE/SAE was related to investigational product. Medical/scientific judgment was used to determine whether SAE reporting was appropriate in situations in which an event may not have met the SAE definition.

  4. Number of Participants With the Indicated Adverse Events During the Follow-up Phase

    Time frame: 4- to 14-day Follow-up Phase, beginning after the date of the last dose of down-titration medication (up to and during Study Weeks 26 and 27)

    An adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. In addition to the data recorded at the follow-up visit, SAEs occurring up to and including 2 days after the last dose of down-titration medication are included in the Follow-up Phase.

  5. Number of Participants With the Indicated Adverse Events Related to Investigational Product During the Follow-up Phase

    Time frame: 4- to 14-day Follow-up Phase, beginning after the date of the last dose of down-titration medication (up to and during Study Weeks 26 and 27)

    An adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. The Investigator determined if an AE/SAE was related to investigational product. In addition to the data recorded at the follow-up visit, SAEs occurring up to and including 2 days after the last dose of down-titration medication are included in the Follow-up Phase.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean Gambling Symptom Assessment Scale (G-SAS) Score at Week 24

    Time frame: Week 24

    The G-SAS is a reliable and valid self-reported measure of gambling symptoms. It is comprised of twelve questions aimed at evaluating gambling symptoms; each item is scored on a 5-point scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (extreme symptoms). The total score ranges from 0 to 48, where 0=least severe and 48=most severe.

  2. Mean Change From Baseline in the Gambling Symptom Assessment Scale (G-SAS) Score at Week 24

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 24

    The G-SAS is a reliable and valid self-reported measure of gambling symptoms. It is comprised of twelve questions aimed at evaluating gambling symptoms; each item is scored on a 5-point scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (extreme symptoms). The total score ranges from 0 to 48, where 0=least severe and 48=most severe. Change from Baseline is calculated as the value at Week 24 minus the Baseline value.
