Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Participants flow shows all subjects randomized. Safety analyses are based on actual treatment received; 4 subjects randomized to placebo were mistreated (1 subject each in the rotigotine 1 puff, rotigotine 2 puffs, rotigotine 3 puffs, and rotigotine 4 puffs treatment arms).

  Outcome Measures
  Show All Outcome Measures

1.  Primary:   Number of Subjects Who Complete the Trial   [ Time Frame: 15 days ]

2.  Secondary:   Change From Baseline at 24 Minutes Post-dose in Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part III Motor Examination   [ Time Frame: Baseline, and 24 minutes post-dose ]

3.  Secondary:   Change From Baseline to 34 Minutes Post-dose in Tapping Rate (Taps/Min)   [ Time Frame: Baseline and 34 minutes post-dose ]
  Hide Outcome Measure 3

Measure Type Secondary
Measure Title Change From Baseline to 34 Minutes Post-dose in Tapping Rate (Taps/Min)
Measure Description One-minute tapping rate will be calculated as the number of times a subject could tap on two 4 x 4 cm marks placed on a board 30 cm apart during 1 minute (30 cm measured from the inner border of the two boxes).
Time Frame Baseline and 34 minutes post-dose  
Safety Issue No  

Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
Full Analysis Set: Subjects receiving at least one delivery of trial medication and with at least one post-baseline efficacy measurement. Missing values at 34 minutes post-dose timepoint were not imputed; number of observations at 34 minutes post-dose timepoint may be less than that for baseline timepoint.
