Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum plasma concentration of unconjugated Rotigotine (Cmax)Pharmacokinetic (PK) samples will be taken predose, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h, 16 h, 24 h (before patch removal in the morning of Day 2), 25 h, 26 h, 28 h, 30 h, 32 h, 36 h, 40 h and 48 h after Rotigotine administration

The value of the maximum plasma concentration is directly obtained from the observed plasma concentration versus time curves.

Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero up to the last analytically quantifiable concentration of unconjugated Rotigotine (AUC 0-t)Pharmacokinetic (PK) samples will be taken predose, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h, 16 h, 24 h (before patch removal in the morning of Day 2), 25 h, 26 h, 28 h, 30 h, 32 h, 36 h, 40 h and 48 h after Rotigotine administration

The area under the curve extrapolated to infinity is calculated as the sum of AUC(0-t) and a residual part extrapolated to infinite time.
