Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants With the Indicated Number of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
13 February 2004 through 31 March 2010

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. SAEs, defined as AEs that are 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.

Unified Parkinson's Disease (PD) Rating Scale (UPDRS) Total Activities of Daily Living Scores (Intent-to-Treat Population)
Screening; Week 4; Months 3, 9, 15, 21, 27, 33, 39, 45, 51, 57, 63, 69, 75, and 78

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.

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.

PK samples will be measured for each formulation and compared between sites. The units of measure for this will include PK parameters, for example, Bioavailability, clearance and volume of distribution and Area under the curve.

PK parameters used to measure this change : AUC(0-infinity), AUC(0-t), Cmax, tmax, lambda - z and t1/2

Frequently asked questions about Ropinirole XL

What is Ropinirole XL used for in Parkinson Disease?

Ropinirole XL is an investigational extended-release small molecule being developed for the treatment of Parkinson Disease. It is a dopamine agonist formulated for prolonged release. The drug is currently in Phase 3 clinical development and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

Who makes Ropinirole XL?

Ropinirole XL is being developed by GSK plc, a global biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker GSK. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this extended-release formulation for Parkinson Disease.

What phase is Ropinirole XL in?

Ropinirole XL is in Phase 3 clinical development for Parkinson Disease. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not yet received regulatory approval. The Phase 3 program includes completed long-term safety extension studies, with a total of 545 participants enrolled across all trials.

What clinical trials is Ropinirole XL in?

Ropinirole XL has been studied in three completed clinical trials. NCT00632736 was a Phase 3 open-label study evaluating long-term safety in 419 Parkinson Disease patients across multiple countries. NCT00650104 was a Phase 3 long-term extension study in 76 US patients. NCT01371682 was a Phase 1 bioequivalence study in 50 healthy volunteers in Belgium.

Is Ropinirole XL the same as Ropinirole CR?

Yes, Ropinirole XL was formerly referred to as Ropinirole CR, as indicated in the clinical trial titles. The extended-release formulation has been studied under both names in Phase 3 trials for Parkinson Disease. The drug is being developed by GSK plc.
