A Remote, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study of Rotigotine Transdermal System in Adolescent Subjects With Idiopathic Restless Legs Syndrome

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of rotigotine against placebo in adolescent subjects with idiopathic Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) over a 12-week maintenance period and to investigate the safety and tolerability of rotigotine in adolescent subjects with idiopathic RLS.

A Multicenter, Open-label, Single-dose Pharmacokinetic and Safety Evaluation of HORIZANT (Gabapentin Enacarbil Extended-release Tablets) in Adolescents Aged 13 to 17 Years Old With Moderate-to-severe Primary Restless Legs Syndrome

The primary objective is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of gabapentin following the single-dose administration of HORIZANT (Gabapentin Enacarbil) in adolescents (13 to 17 years of age) diagnosed with moderate-to-severe Primary Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS).

Comorbidity between Restless Legs Syndrome and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder remains a matter of debate. This putative association, possibly reflecting a shared brain iron homeostasis and dopaminergic dysfunction, supports the hypothesis of a neurodevelopmental component in Restless Legs Syndrome pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder symptoms prevalence in adult patients with primary Restless Legs Syndrome compared to another ill group of patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome to control for the disease specific effects on psychiatric symptoms and a healthy individuals control group. Clinical data were obtained through standardized and validated self-administrated questionnaires evaluating Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder symptoms frequencies in 139 outpatients with idiopathic Restless Legs Syndrome, 111 patients with treated obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and 136 healthy subjects. Our findings demonstrate a higher prevalence of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms among both male and female patients with Restless Legs Syndrome, compared to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome patients and healthy subjects (33.3 and 43.5%, respectively, p < 0.001). Only women presented a strong relationship between Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Restless Legs Syndrome severity (p < 0.001). Male and female in the three groups showed similar Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder symptom prevalence. These findings indicate that Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms among adult patients with Restless Legs Syndrome populations are a robust phenomenon. These data provide arguments in favor of an enlargement of the clinical neuropsychological presentation of Restless Legs Syndrome and question the role of decreased brain iron of these psychiatric symptoms.

Long-term dopamine agonist treatment fails to restore altered central sensory processing in restless legs syndrome: Evidence from current perception threshold measurements

Article

Author: Seok, Hung Youl ; Cho, Yong Won

OBJECTIVESAlthough some studies have examined the impact of short-term dopamine agonist treatment on altered central sensory processing in patients with restless legs syndrome (RLS), there is a scarcity of research investigating the effect of long-term treatment with these drugs. The aim of this study is to investigate the long-term impact of dopamine agonist treatment on altered central sensory processing in RLS patients using current perception threshold (CPT) testing.METHODSWe conducted a study of 24 RLS patients, measuring their CPT values before and after dopamine agonist treatment for at least 2 months. Patients were classified as responders or non-responders based on their decrease in International Restless Legs Syndrome (IRLS) score. Clinical parameters were collected and compared pre- and post-treatment.RESULTSThe mean duration of treatment with dopamine agonist was 13.6 ± 11.0 months. Our results showed that dopamine agonist treatment significantly improved clinical parameters, including the IRLS score, Visual Analogue Scale, and RLS Quality of Life questionnaire. However, CPT values did not show significant changes for all stimulus frequencies after treatment. Furthermore, we did not find any difference in CPT values before and after treatment in both responders and non-responders.CONCLUSIONSOur study demonstrated that long-term treatment with dopamine agonists effectively reduces RLS symptoms, but does not reverse the altered central sensory processing observed on CPT testing in RLS patients. These results support the notion that the pathophysiology of RLS is multifactorial and not solely driven by dopaminergic dysfunction.
