Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

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

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) 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 Participants With UPDRS II+III Response
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-time
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 Baseline
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 Hours
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 Weeks
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 Weeks
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 Weeks
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 Weeks
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-I
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.

Number of Participants With Response in PGI-I
Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I), PGI-I scores ranging from '1' (very much better) to '7' (very much worse).
