Summary

This is a multicenter, placebo controlled, parallel group, double-blind, randomized comparison study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ropinirole IR tablets orally administered for 12 weeks in patients with symptomatic restless legs syndrome associated with Chronic kidney disease (CKD) managed with haemodialysis (including haemofiltration and haemodiafiltration) (hereinafter referred to as "uRLS"), to evaluate the efficacy and safety of long-term administration of ropinirole IR tablets, and assess the effect on the steady state pharmacokinetics in the long-term administration period of ropinirole IR tablets.

Conditions

  • Restless Legs Syndrome

Interventions

DRUG

Ropinirole immediate release (IR)

Subjects completing the screening period will be randomized (1:1) to receive the IR or placebo for 12 weeks. The treatment will be started at the initial dose of 0.25 mg/day within 1 to 3 hours before bedtime. The maximum available dose is 3 mg/day. For all subjects completing short-term period and entering the long-term treatment period, the open-label treatment will be started from IR 0.25 mg/ day regardless of dose levels during short-term period. The dose will be upward titrated from 0.25 mg/day to 0.5 mg/day and after that in increments of 0.5 mg/day until sufficient efficacy is obtained (targeting "much improved" or "very much improved" in the CGI-I) without safety/tolerability problem.

DRUG

Placebo

Subjects completing the screening period will be randomized (1:1) to receive the IR or placebo for 12 weeks. The treatment will be started at the initial dose of 0.25 mg/day within 1 to 3 hours before bedtime.
