Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo- and Positive-controlled, Parallel-group Trial to Assess the Potential Electrocardiographic Effects of Rotigotine Transdermal System up to 120 cm2/54.0 mg/Day in Subjects With Advanced-stage Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease: A Thorough QT/QTc Trial

ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2006

130 participants

Abstract

The purpose of this trial is to assess whether rotigotine has an effect on the electrical activity of the heart. Moxifloxacin infusion is used as positive control to assess assay sensitivity.

Conditions: Parkinson's Disease.

Primary outcome: Time-matched Change From Baseline (Average of Day -2 and Day -1) in QTc Based on the QTcI at Time of Patch Application on Day 42 (Rotigotine Dose of 54 mg/Day) (Parallel-group Comparison); Time-matched Change From Baseline (Average of Day -2 and Day -1) in QTc Based on the QTcI 1 Hour After Patch Application on Day 42 (Rotigotine Dose of 54 mg/Day) (Parallel-group Comparison); Time-matched Change From Baseline (Average of Day -2 and Day -1) in QTc Based on the QTcI 2 Hours After Patch Application on Day 42 (Rotigotine Dose of 54 mg/Day) (Parallel-group Comparison); Time-matched Change From Baseline (Average of Day -2 and Day -1) in QTc Based on the QTcI 3 Hours After Patch Application on Day 42(Rotigotine Dose of 54 mg/Day) (Parallel-group Comparison); Time-matched Change From Baseline (Average of Day -2 and Day -1) in QTc Based on the QTcI 4 Hours After Patch Application on Day 42 (Rotigotine Dose of 54 mg/Day) (Parallel-group Comparison); Time-matched Change From Baseline (Average of Day -2 and Day -1) in QTc Based on the QTcI 5 Hours After Patch Application on Day 42 (Rotigotine Dose of 54 mg/Day) (Parallel-group Comparison); Time-matched Change From Baseline (Average of Day -2 and Day -1) in QTc Based on the QTcI 6 Hours After Patch…

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 130 participants or records.
