Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main objective of this phase 2a proof-of-concept trial is to assess the efficacy of rotigotine nasal spray in ascending doses in subjects with idiopathic Restless Legs Syndrome.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Each patient of the placebo and rotigotine group performed an Eligibility Assessment, as well 4 treatment days at which subjects performed a repeated 'Suggested Immobilization Test' (SIT) during a 30min pre-dose and a 4 hours post-dose period. During these periods the severity of RLS symptoms in the legs was assessed by the subject using a numeric symptom severity scale.

In addition the leg movements were measured by actigraphy to assess the Periodic Leg Movement Index during Wakefulness (PLMWI, PLM per hour). Subjects applied a single dose of treatment on each treatment day (placebo nasal spray or rotigotine nasal spray in 3 ascending doses).
