Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) Post-conversion From Ropinirole IR to Ropinirole CR Over Period
Up to 5 weeks

AE is an unfavorable change in the health of a participant, including abnormal laboratory findings, that happens during a clinical study or within a certain time period after the study has ended. This change may or may not be caused by the intervention being studied. In each of the 6 cohorts, there were 2 conversions, one of which was IR to CR-RLS and the other one IR to IR. Two populations were defined: the first conversion population and the second conversion population. The first conversion population consisted of all participants receiving at least one dose of randomized drug during the pre-conversion 1 period and during the post-conversion 1 period. The second conversion population consisted of all participants receiving at least one dose of randomized drug during the pre-conversion 2 period and during the post-conversion 2 period.

Secondary Endpoints
Number of Participants Discontinuing the Drug Due to AEs Post Conversion From Ropinirole IR to Ropinirole CR-RLS
Up to 5 weeks
Number of Participants With SAEs and Severity of AEs
Up to 5 weeks
Number of Participants With Positive Scores (Improved) on Clinical Global Impression Improvement Scale (CGI-I) Pre-conversion and One Week Post-conversion

Ropinirole cohort A1: 1 mg IR/2 mg CR-RLS/1 mg IR/1 mg IREXPERIMENTALParticipants received Placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 1 mg IR at bedtime on Week 1. At the end of Week 1, participants were switched to receive Ropinirole 2 mg controlled release for Restless Legs Syndrome (CR-RLS) in the evening and placebo at bedtime till the end of Week 2. At the end of Week 2, participants were converted back to receive placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 1 mg IR at bedtime and continued to receive the same till the end of Week 4.
Ropinirole cohort A2: 1 mg IR/1 mg IR/1 mg IR/2 mg CR-RLSEXPERIMENTALParticipants received Placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 1 mg IR at bedtime on Week 1 and continued to receive the same till the end of Week 3. At the end of Week 3, participants were switched to receive Ropinirole 2 mg CR-RLS in the evening and placebo at bedtime till the end of Week 4.
Ropinirole cohort B1: 2 mg IR/3 mg CR-RLS/2 mg IR/2 mg IREXPERIMENTALParticipants received Placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 2 mg IR at bedtime on Week 1. At the end of Week 1, participants were switched to receive Ropinirole 3 mg CR-RLS in the evening and placebo at bedtime till the end of Week 2. At the end of Week 2, participants were converted back to receive placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 2 mg IR at bedtime and continued to receive the same till the end of Week 4.
Ropinirole cohort B2: 2 mg IR/2 mg IR/2 mg IR/3 mg CR-RLSEXPERIMENTALParticipants received Placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 2 mg IR at bedtime on Week 1 and continued to receive the same till the end of Week 3. At the end of Week 3, participants were switched to receive Ropinirole 3 mg CR-RLS in the evening and placebo at bedtime till the end of Week 4.
Ropinirole cohort C1: 4 mg IR/6 mg CR-RLS/4 mg IR/4 mg IREXPERIMENTALParticipants received Placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 4 mg IR at bedtime on Week 1. At the end of Week 1, participants were switched to receive Ropinirole 6 mg CR-RLS in the evening and placebo at bedtime till the end of Week 2. At the end of Week 2, participants were converted back to receive placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 4 mg IR at bedtime and continued to receive the same till the end of Week 4.
Ropinirole cohort C2: 4 mg IR/4 mg IR/4 mg IR/6 mg CR-RLSEXPERIMENTALParticipants received Placebo in the evening and Ropinirole 4 mg IR at bedtime on Week 1 and continued to receive the same till the end of Week 3.
