GroupInterventionDescription
Sequence A-B (Test: PR2.1.1 - Reference: PR1.0)Rotigotine transdermal patchTwo single applications of rotigotine patches from two different manufacturing processes in the order A-B separated by a washout phase of at least 5 days
Sequence B-A (Reference: PR1.0 - Test: PR2.1.1)Rotigotine transdermal patchTwo single applications of rotigotine patches from two different manufacturing processes in the order B-A separated by a washout phase of at least 5 days
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
AUC(0-tz) of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application

The AUC(0-tz) is the area under the plasma concentration- time curve from zero up to the last analytically quantifiable concentration.

Cmax of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The Cmax is the maximum plasma concentration.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
t1/2 of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The t1/2 is the terminal half- life.

CL/f of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The CL/f is the apparent total body clearance.

AUC(0-∞) of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The AUC(0-∞) is the area under the plasma concentration- time curve from zero up to infinity.

AUC(0-tz)Norm (Apparent Dose) of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The AUC(0-tz)Norm (Apparent dose) is the area under the plasma concentration- time curve from zero up to the last analytically quantifiable concentration normalized by apparent dose (mg).

Cmax,Norm (Apparent Dose) of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The Cmax,Norm (Apparent dose) is the maximum plasma concentration normalized by apparent dose.

Tmax of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The Tmax is the time to reach a maximum plasma concentration after patch application.

λz of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The λz is the rate constant of elimination.

Apparent Dose48 hours

Apparent dose of unconjugated rotigotine in mg. The Apparent dose of unconjugated rotigotine was determined from the patches removed on Day 2.

AUC(0-tz)Norm (BW) of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The AUC(0-tz)Norm (BW) is the area under the plasma concentration- time curve from zero up to the last analytically quantifiable concentration normalized by body weight (kg).

Cmax,Norm (BW) of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 (before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The Cmax,Norm (BW) is the maximum plasma concentration normalized by body weight (kg).

MRT of Unconjugated RotigotinePharmacokinetic samples were taken predose, after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24(before patch removal), 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, 36, 40 and 48 hours after patch application.

The MRT is the mean residence time.
