Achieving optimal symptom control with minimal side effects is a major goal in clinical practice. Dual-agent dopamine receptor agonist (DA) therapy in Parkinson's disease (PD) may represent a promising approach to treatment, as the combination of different pharmacokinetic/pharmacological profiles may result in a lesser need for high dosages and, accordingly, may be well tolerated. The objective of the current study was to investigate safety and efficacy of rotigotine transdermal system as add-on to oral DA in patients with advanced PD inadequately controlled with levodopa and low-dose oral DA.
PD0015 was an open-label, multinational study in patients with advanced-PD and sleep disturbance or early-morning motor impairment. Patients were titrated to optimal dose rotigotine (≤8 mg/24 h) over 1-4 weeks and maintained for 4-7 weeks (8-week treatment). Dosage of levodopa and oral DA (pramipexole ≤1.5 mg/day, ropinirole ≤6.0 mg/day) was stable. Primary variable was Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) item 4: side effects, assessing safety. Other variables included adverse events (AEs), Patient Global Impressions of Change (PGIC), Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) II and III, Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS-2), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and "off" time.
Of 90 patients who received rotigotine, 79 (88%) completed the study; 5 (6%) withdrew due to AEs. Most (83/89; 93%) had a CGI-4 score <3 indicating that rotigotine add-on therapy did not interfere with functioning; 6 (7%) experienced drug-related AEs that interfered with functioning (score ≥3). AEs occurring in ≥5% were application site pruritus (13%), dizziness (10%), orthostatic hypotension (10%), nausea (8%), dyskinesia (8%), and nasopharyngitis (6%). Numerical improvements in motor function (UPDRS III), activities of daily living (UPDRS II), sleep disturbances (PDSS-2, PSQI), and reduction in "off" time were observed. The majority (71/88; 81%) improved on PGIC.
Addition of rotigotine transdermal system to low-dose oral DA in patients with advanced-PD was feasible and may be associated with clinical benefit.

在临床实践中,以最小的副作用实现最佳症状控制是一个主要目标。帕金森病(PD)的双药多巴胺受体激动剂(DA)疗法可能是一种很有前景的治疗方法,因为不同药代动力学/药理学特性的组合可能导致对高剂量的需求降低,因此耐受性良好。本研究的目的是调查在左旋多巴和低剂量口服DA治疗效果不佳的晚期PD患者中,罗替戈汀透皮系统作为口服DA的附加治疗的安全性和有效性。
PD0015是一项针对晚期PD合并睡眠障碍或清晨运动障碍患者的开放标签、多国研究。患者在1 - 4周内滴定至最佳剂量的罗替戈汀(≤8毫克/24小时),并维持4 - 7周(8周治疗期)。左旋多巴和口服DA(普拉克索≤1.5毫克/天,罗匹尼罗≤6.0毫克/天)的剂量保持稳定。主要变量是临床总体印象(CGI)第4项:副作用,用于评估安全性。其他变量包括不良事件(AE)、患者总体变化印象(PGIC)、统一帕金森病评定量表(UPDRS)II和III、帕金森病睡眠量表(PDSS - 2)、匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)以及“关”期时间。
在90例接受罗替戈汀治疗的患者中,79例(88%)完成了研究;5例(6%)因不良事件退出。大多数(83/89;93%)的CGI - 4评分<3,表明罗替戈汀附加治疗不影响功能;6例(7%)经历了影响功能的药物相关不良事件(评分≥3)。发生率≥5%的不良事件有用药部位瘙痒(13%)、头晕(10%)、体位性低血压(10%)、恶心(8%)、运动障碍(8%)和鼻咽炎(6%)。观察到运动功能(UPDRS III)、日常生活活动能力(UPDRS II)、睡眠障碍(PDSS - 2、PSQI)有数值改善,“关”期时间减少。大多数(71/88;81%)患者在PGIC上有改善。
在晚期PD患者中,将罗替戈汀透皮系统添加到低剂量口服DA治疗中是可行的,并且可能带来临床益处。
