Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Restless Legs Syndrome
• Interventions: Drug: Rotigotine

• Registration Number: NCT00498186

Brief Summary

This is a multi-center, open-label extension trial conducted at the same European sites that participated in trial SP 709 (NCT00243217). The trial is designed to collect long-term safety and tolerability, efficacy correlates, and quality of life data in subjects with idiopathic Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS).
