  • Subject is willing and able to comply with all trial requirements.
  • Subject is male or female, aged≥ 18 years.
  • Subject is Korean.
  • Subjects with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (Hoehn and Yahr Stage I-IV) as defined by the cardinal sign, bradykinesia, and at least 1 of the following: resting tremor, rigidity, or impairment of postural reflexes.
  • Subject is not satisfactorily controlled on a total daily dose of ropinirole from 3mg to 12mg, inclusive.
  • If the subject is receiving levodopa, either short-acting or sustained-release (in combination with benserazide or carbidopa), the total daily dose must be stable for 28 days prior to the Baseline Visit and must remain stable for the Treatment Period.
  • If the subject is receiving an anticholinergic agent (eg, benztropine, trihexyphenidyl, parsitan, procyclidine, biperiden), a monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitor (eg, selegiline), a COMT inhibitor (eg, entacapone), or an N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-antagonist (eg, amantadine), he/she must have been on a stable dose for at least 28 days prior to the Baseline Visit and must be maintained on that dose for the Treatment Period

Exclusion Criteria

  • Subjects are not permitted to enroll in the trial if any of the following criteria are met:
  • Subject has previously participated in a trial with rotigotine.
