Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Mean Change From Week 0 (Baseline) in the Japanese Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part III Total Score at the Final Assessment Point (FAP) (up to Week 24) in the Non-Inferiority Verification Phase
The Japanese UPDRS assesses the status of Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients objectively. Part III assesses motor examination on 27 items. Participants receive a score of 0-4 points per item. The maximum total score is 108 points. A higher score indicates more severe PD symptoms. Mean change from Week 0 was calculated as the total score at FAP minus the total score at Week 0. Participants who withdrew before Week 2 and who had only one observation for the part III total score were not included in the analysis.

The subjects'dose will be titrated according to the recommended schedule to achieve an optimal therapeutic response (ropinirolePR/XR2-15 mg/day ,ropinirolIR0.75-15 mg/day). Double-blind PR/XR switching phase (8 weeks) Ropinirole IR-PR subjects will be switched overnight to a similar dose of ropinirole PR/XR, while the remaining ropinirole PR-PR group will continue on the same dosage. Double blind long-term treatment phase (22 weeks) The same dose level at the end of PR/XR switching phase will be continued till week 54 under blind.
