Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of rotigotine as compared to placebo in reducing signs and symptoms of fibromyalgia syndrome. The effects of rotigotine on pain, sleep, general activity, mood, and quality of life, and the use of rescue medication to treat pain will be assessed.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

The overall post-Baseline duration of treatment was 13 weeks. The trial consisted of a 4-week Titration Phase, an 8-week Maintenance Phase, a 1-week De-escalation Phase, and a 2-week Safety Follow-Up Phase. If subjects met the eligibility criteria, they were randomized to receive rotigotine 4 mg/24 hrs, rotigotine 8 mg/24 hrs, or placebo during the Maintenance Phase. During the 4-week Titration Phase, subjects assigned to rotigotine were titrated at weekly intervals of 2 mg/24 hrs until they reached 4 mg/24 hrs or 8 mg/24 hrs. All subjects who completed the 4-week Titration Phase entered an 8-week Maintenance Phase and were maintained at their randomized dose (rotigotine 4 mg/24 hrs, rotigotine 8 mg/24 hrs, or placebo). No dose adjustment was allowed during the Maintenance Phase. The Treatment Phase was defined as the combined Titration and Maintenance Phases.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline in Average Daily Pain Score to the Last 2 Weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase (Based on the Full Analysis Set) [Baseline, Last 2 weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      The average daily pain score is calculated using an 11-point Likert scale, ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain ever experienced).

    2. Change From Baseline in Average Daily Pain Score to the Last 2 Weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase (Based on the Per Protocol Set) [Baseline, Last 2 weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      The average daily pain score is calculated using an 11-point Likert scale, ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain ever experienced).

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline in Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) Total Score to the Last Assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      The Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) Total Score ranges from 0 to 100 with higher scores corresponding to a greater impact of fibromyalgia

    2. Change From Baseline in Total Myalgic Score to the Last Assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      Total Myalgic Score ranges from 0 to 54 with higher scores corresponding to a greater level of pain.

    3. Change From Baseline in Average Daily Interference With Sleep to the Last 2 Weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last 2 weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      Sleep scale - the subject rated quality of sleep, from 0 (very good sleep) to 10 (very poor sleep)

    4. Change From Baseline in Daily Interference With General Activity to the Last 2 Weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last 2 weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      General activity scale - the subject rated how the pain had interfered with general activity, from 0 (did not interfere) to 10 (completely interfered)

    5. Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Assessment From Baseline to the Last Assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      The PGIC is a 7-point self-administered categorical rating scale in which the subject rated the change in pain since starting trial medication (from much worse [score of 1] to much better [score of 7]).

    6. Change From Baseline in Morning and Evening Pain Scores to the Last 2 Weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last 2 weeks of the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      An 11-point Likert scale was used for subjects to assess pain, from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain ever experienced).

    7. Number of Subjects Using Rescue Medication and Alcohol During the 12-week Treatment Phase [12-week Treatment Phase]

      Subjects recorded use of rescue medication for pain in the diary daily in the evening with a Yes/No response. Use of alcohol to treat pain in the past 24 hours was recorded with a Yes/No response.

    8. Rotigotine Plasma Concentration at the End of the Maintenance Phase/Week 12 [End of the Maintenance Phase/Week 12]

    9. Change From Baseline in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) Scores to the Last Assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) is a self-administered instrument for detecting anxiety and depression in medical outpatients. Scores range from 0 to 21 for each subscale with higher scores reflecting a greater level of anxiety or depression.

    10. Change From Baseline in Fibromyalgia Symptom Scores to the Last Assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      All scores range from 0 to 10 with higher scores corresponding to a greater level of symptom severity.

    11. Change From Baseline in Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) Scores to the Last Assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase [Baseline, Last assessment in the 12-week Treatment Phase]

      The Beck Depression Inventory-II is a 21-item questionnaire. Each item is scored on a scale of 0 to 3 with a total score ranging from 0 to 63. A higher total score is associated with more severe depressive symptoms.

    12. Number of Subjects With Presence of Impulse Control Disorders [12-week Treatment Phase]

      Impulse control disorders (ICDs) are a set of psychiatric disorders in which a person is unable to control strong and often harmful impulses. They are assessed in this study using the Jay Modified Minnesota Impulsive Disorders Interview (Jay Modified MIDI), which focuses on the five most common ICDs that may be associated with dopamine agonist use: compulsive buying, compulsive gambling, compulsive eating, hypersexuality and punding (performing repetitive and/or mechanical tasks).

    Study Results

    Participant Flow

    Recruitment Details The Full Analysis Set (FAS) contains all randomized subjects who received at least 1 dose of trial medication, and had at least 1 post-Baseline Likert pain score. The Per Protocol Set contains all subjects in the FAS who completed at least 2 weeks of the Maintenance Phase and had no major protocol deviations.
    Pre-assignment Detail Participant flow is based on the 230 randomized subjects however 1 subject randomized to Rotigotine 4 mg/24 hrs did not receive study medication and was excluded from the Safety Set. Thus 229 subjects are included in summaries of baseline characteristics and adverse events. The excluded subject was a 47-year old female enrolled in the United States

    13. Secondary Outcome
    Title Number of Subjects With Presence of Impulse Control Disorders
    Description Impulse control disorders (ICDs) are a set of psychiatric disorders in which a person is unable to control strong and often harmful impulses. They are assessed in this study using the Jay Modified Minnesota Impulsive Disorders Interview (Jay Modified MIDI), which focuses on the five most common ICDs that may be associated with dopamine agonist use: compulsive buying, compulsive gambling, compulsive eating, hypersexuality and punding (performing repetitive and/or mechanical tasks).
