Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Patients With Adverse Events, Adverse Drug Reactions, Serious Adverse Events80 weeks

The aim of this study was to obtain long-term safety and tolerability data on pramipexole ER, in patients who have previously completed a pramipexole double blind study in advanced Parkinson's Disease (PD) (248.525 (NCT00466167)). Therefore these items were considered as a safety evaluation.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Patients Successfully Switched From Pramipexole (PPX) IR or ER to ER Assessed on UPDRS II+IIIOne week

Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Successfully switched means: UPDRS II+III baseline score \>20 without a relative worsening of UPDRS II+III score \> 15% from baseline or UPDRS II+III baseline score \<=20 without an absolute worsening of UPDRS II+III score \> 3 from baseline UPDRS II+III ranging from 0 (normal) to 160 (severe). UPDRS part II measures activities of daily living, part III measures motor symptoms

UPDRS II+III Change From Open Label (OL) BaselineOL Baseline and week 80

UPDRS II+III ranging from 0 (normal) to 160 (severe). UPDRS part II measures activities of daily living, part III measures motor symptoms

Number of Participants With UPDRS II+III ResponseWeek 80

A response means an improvement of \>=20% in UPDRS II+III from OL baseline UPDRS II+III ranging from 0 (normal) to 160 (severe). UPDRS part II measures activities of daily living, part III measures motor symptoms

Number of Patients Successfully Switched From PPX IR or ER to ER Assessed on Off-timeOne week

A patient was considered as successfully switched if he/she has converted to ER without a worsening of off time by more than 12.5% from baseline. Off-time is based on patient diary data and describes a period when the patient experiences increased parkinsonian symptoms (e.g. immobility or inability to move with ease).

Percentage Off Time During Waking Hours Total Score: Change From BaselineBaseline and week 80

Percentage off-time based on patient diary data, percentage ranging from 0 (best case) to 100 (worst case). Off-time describes a period when the patient experiences increased parkinsonian symptoms (e.g. immobility or inability to move with ease).

A negative change implies improvement

Number of Participants With Response in Percentage Off Time During Waking Hours80 weeks

Response means \>=20% improvement relative to OL baseline in the % off-time during waking hours

Percentage on Time Without Dyskinesia During Waking Hours: Change From Baseline After 80 WeeksBaseline and week 80

Percentage on-time based on patient diary data, percentage ranging from 0 (worst case) to 100 (best case). On-time describes a period when the patient has no symptoms of off-time and is not asleep. A positive change implies improvement.

Percentage on Time With Non Troublesome Dyskinesia During Waking Hours: Change From Baseline After 80 WeeksBaseline and week 80

Percentage on-time with non troublesome dyskinesia based on patient diary data, percentage ranging from 0 (worst case) to 100 (best case). On-time describes a period when the patient has no symptoms of off-time and is not asleep. A positive change implies improvement

Percentage on Time Without Dyskinesia or With Non Troublesome Dyskinesia During Waking Hours: Change From Baseline After 80 WeeksBaseline and week 80

Percentage on-time without dyskinesia or with non troublesome dyskinesia based on patient diary data, percentage ranging from 0 (worst case) to 100 (best case). On-time describes a period when the patient has no symptoms of off-time and is not asleep. A positive change implies improvement

Percentage on Time With Troublesome Dyskinesia During Waking Hours: Change From Baseline After 80 WeeksBaseline and week 80

Percentage on-time with troublesome dyskinesia based on patient diary data, percentage ranging from 0 (worst case) to 100 (best case). On-time describes a period when the patient has no symptoms of off-time and is not asleep. A positive change implies improvement

Number of Participants With Response in CGI-I32 weeks

Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I), CGI-I scores ranging from '1' (very much improved) to '7' (very much worse). For patients previously treated with Placebo, all patients with at least "much improved" were considered as responders. For patients previously treated with PPX ER or IR, all patients with no change to very much improved were considered as responders

Number of Participants With Response in PGI-I32 weeks

Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I), PGI-I scores ranging from '1' (very much better) to '7' (very much worse). For patients previously treated with Placebo, all patients with at least "much better" were considered as responders. For patients previously treated with PPX ER or IR, all patients with no change to very much better were considered as responders

Number of Participants With Response in PGI-I for Early Morning Off Symptoms32 weeks

Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) for early morning off symptoms, PGI-I scores ranging from '1' (very much better) to '7' (very much worse). For patients previously treated with Placebo, all patients with at least "much better" were considered as responders. For patients previously treated with PPX ER or IR, all patients with no change to very much better were considered as responders

UPDRS I Total Score and Change From OL Baseline at Week 80OL baseline and week 80

UPDRS I ranging from 0 (normal) to 16 (severe). UPDRS I measures Mentation, Behavior and Mood

UPDRS II Total Score and Change From OL Baseline at Week 80OL baseline and week 80

UPDRS II ranging from 0 (normal) to 52 (severe). UPDRS Part II is calculated as the average of UPDRS part II at on and UPDRS part II at off-period for each of the 13 activities

UPDRS III Total Score and Change From OL Baseline at Week 80OL baseline and week 80

UPDRS III ranging from 0 (normal) to 108 (severe). UPDRS part III measures motor symptoms

UPDRS IV Total Score and Change From OL Baseline at Week 80OL baseline and week 80

UPDRS IV ranging from 0 (normal) to 23 (severe). UPDRS IV measures complications of therapy

Parkinson Fatigue Scale (PFS-16) Score and Change From OL Baseline at Week 80OL baseline and week 80

PFS-16 (Parkinson fatigue scale) ranging from 16 (better perceived health status) to 80 (severe symptoms of the disease) measuring aspects of fatigue that are relevant to patients with PD
