Active clinical trials for "Restless Legs Syndrome"

The objective of this trial is to demonstrate that rotigotine (SPM 936) is effective in subjects with idiopathic RLS based on the PLMI (Periodic Limb Movements Index)(PLMs/total time in bed) as measured by polysomnography (PSG). The primary variable is the reduction of PLMI at the end of the Maintenance Period compared to Baseline. PLMI data will be obtained from PSGs.

Restless leg syndrome (RLS) is a very common neurological condition characterized by an uncontrollable desire to move the legs. Due to the traumatic effect of RLS on morbidity, the patient is negatively affected in many different directions. The duration and quality of sleep of the patients decrease, and their cognitive functions change. The prevalence or risk of anxiety and depression increases in this population. At the same time, the quality of life of patients is significantly reduced. Among the different pharmacological agents used in RLS, dopamine agonists are the most widely used. However, the reporting of serious and common side effects related to this treatment has led to non-pharmacological approaches in the treatment of RLS and the effectiveness of many different approaches has been investigated. The exercise approach, which is determined to be effective in the treatment of the disease, is a subject that has been little studied. The type, duration and frequency of optimal exercise could not be standardized. In addition, the effect of exercise on RLS patients has been investigated in limited subjects. For this reason, the aim of our study is to examine the effect of different exercise programs on symptoms, sleep, cognitive functions, quality of life, psychological status and fatigue in patients with RLS.

The aim of this research is to find and compare the effect of aerobic exercises and strength training exercise on RLS severity in diabetic patient. Randomized controlled trials done at Physical therapy department of Pakistan Railway general hospital, Rawalpindi. The sample size was 38.The subjects were divided into two groups, 19 subjects in the aerobic physical therapy group and in 19 strength group. Study duration was of 6 months. Sampling technique applied was Simple randomization via computer-generated random numbers. Only 40-60 years individual with restless leg syndrome in 5 years old diabetic history included. Tools used in the study are International Restless Leg Syndrome Study Group Rating Scale: (an International tool for finding the severity of RLS), The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). Data was be analyzed through SPSS 21.

This will be a Phase III, double blinded, multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled study. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive Injectafer or Placebo on days 0 and 5. All treated subjects will be followed for efficacy and safety for 12 months. The subject's participation in the study will be for approximately 1 year from Day 0.

Firefighters work some of the most demanding schedules known under highly stressful and demanding conditions. The need to work frequent extended shifts and long work weeks leads to acute and chronic partial sleep deprivation as well as misalignment of circadian phase. Sleep disorders are common, costly, and treatable, but often remain undiagnosed and untreated and it is likely that a significant proportion of firefighters suffer from undiagnosed sleep disorders which will further impair their sleep and exacerbate fatigue.In the current proposal, we aim to address the health, performance and safety issues related to fatigue in firefighters and test the effectiveness of a Comprehensive Firefighter Fatigue Management Program (CFFMP) that we have termed 'Operation Healthy Sleep.'

To evaluate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of gabapentin enacarbil in moderate to severe primary RLS patients with moderate renal impairment and to confirm dosage and administration in such population.

In pregnancy Restless Legs Syndrome(RLS) is more common than in the general population. During pregnancy iron tablets are the only available safe medication but their efficacy is rather poor. It is the aim of this study to examine the efficacy, practicability and safety of the drug Ferinject® containing the active agent Ferric carboxymaltose for the therapy of Restless Legs Syndrome(RLS) during pregnancy in the case of iron deficiency or anaemia. 20 women with RLS and iron deficiency and/ or anaemia in the third trimester of pregnancy will receive intravenous Ferric carboxymaltose in one or two single doses. Repeated blood tests, pre-and post-therapy actigraphy as well as repeated answering of questionnaires concerning Restless Legs Syndrome(RLS)-symptoms and sleep quality will show the effect of iv-Iron supplementation on Restless Legs Syndrome(RLS)-symptoms during pregnancy. Trial with medicinal product

This study was a multi center, randomized, double blind, active and placebo controlled, parallel group study to assess simulated driving performance in XP13512 treated subjects with Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Eligible subjects were randomized to receive a once daily dose of placebo (2 groups), XP13512 1200 mg, or XP13512 1800 mg for 16 days. On Day 16, one of the placebo groups also received one 50 mg dose of diphenhydramine (DPH) to assess the effects of an agent known to have sedative properties, while the other 3 groups received a DPH placebo.

This purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of pregabalin in treating idiopathic RLS patients for up to 12 months.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cabergoline compared with levodopa in the treatment of patients with RLS.
