Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
52 weeks of Treatment Phase, consisting of 4 weeks of Fixed Titration Phase and 48 weeks of Flexible Titration and Maintenance Phase, was started after 1 to 4 weeks of Screening Phase. Although the results are presented by participants with and without L-dopa, this study was a single-arm design, and L-dopa was not the investigational product.

Reporting Groups
  Description
ROP+L-Dopa Participants received ropinirole hydrochloride (ROP) tablets 3 times daily. In the 4-week Fixed Titration Phase (from Week 0 as Baseline), the dose started at 0.75 milligrams (mg)/day and was increased weekly by 0.75 mg/day up to 3.0 mg/day. In the 48-week Flexible Titration and Maintenance Phase, the dose was increased by 1.5 mg/day at intervals of at least 1 week up to a maximum of 15.0 mg/day. The dose was maintained at a level without further symptomatic improvement expected. The dosing regimen of L-dopa remained unchanged from 4 weeks prior to the start of the Screening Phase throughout the study.
Ropinirole Hydrochloride Participants received ROP tablets 3 times daily. In the 4-week Fixed Titration Phase (from Week 0 as Baseline), the dose started at 0.75 mg/day and was increased weekly by 0.75 mg/day up to 3.0 mg/day. In the 48-week Flexible Titration and Maintenance Phase, the dose was increased by 1.5 mg/day at intervals of at least 1 week up to a maximum of 15.0 mg/day. The dose was maintained at a level without further symptomatic improvement expected. Concomitant use of L-dopa was prohibited during the study.
