The instrument consists of 14 items that encompass 5 domains: tiredness; emotional functioning; social functioning; cognitive functioning; and activities of daily living. There is also 1 global item assessing overall well -being. Each item is scored on a 0-10 numeric rating scale. Total score is the sum of scores from question 1 to 14. The total score ranges from 0 to 140 where higher scores indicate a more severe impact. (NCT00806026)

Medical Outcomes Study-Sleep Scale (MOS-SS) at Week 12

MOS-SS: Participant rated instrument to assess sleep quantity, quality; comprised of 12 items yielding 7 subscale scores: sleep disturbance, snoring, awakening short of breath/headache, sleep adequacy, somnolence, sleep quantity, optimal sleep, 2 composite index scores: sleep problems Index I, II. Sleep adequacy data was reported at week 12 and not for first 12 weeks (average). Subscale scores range: 0-100; exception quantity of sleep (range 0-24 hours). With exception of sleep quantity and sleep adequacy, higher scores reflect poorer sleep outcomes. (NCT00806026)

The International Restless Legs Syndrome (IRLS) Rating scale is a measure of RLS disease severity. The scale reflects the participant-reported assessment of primary sensory and motor features and associated sleep problems in RLS. Ten items (individually scored from 0 to 4) are included that assess the impact of symptoms on participants' mood, daily life, and activities. The total scale score is a sum of all of the individual item scores and ranges from 0-40 points, with 40 being the most severe. The scale assesses symptoms over the week prior to measurement.

Change From Baseline in the IRLS Rating Scale Total Score at Week 12 by Baseline RLS Rating Scale Total Score Category (Baseline RLS Severity) Using LOCF

The IRLS Rating scale is a measure of RLS disease severity. The scale reflects the participant-reported assessment of primary sensory and motor features and associated sleep problems in RLS. Ten items (individually scored from 0 to 4) are included that assess the impact of symptoms on participants' mood, daily life, and activities. The total scale score is a sum of all of the individual item scores and ranges from 0-40 points, with 40 being the most severe. The scale assesses symptoms over the week prior to measurement.

Change From Baseline in Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) International Restless Leg Group Symptom Severity Rating Scale (IRLS) Total Score at Week 6

IRLS: Subject-rated instrument to assess RLS symptom severity and impact on daily living; 10 items yielding 2 subscale scores and 1 global (total) score. Subscale scores: symptom severity (6 items) and impact on daily living (3 items), with item 5 (daytime somnolence due to RLS) loaded equally on both subscales. Global score: calculated from all 10 items. Subscale score ranges: symptom severity 0-24, impact of daily living 0-12; global score range: 0-40. Lower scores reflect lower severity and better quality of life. Change from baseline = score at observation minus score at baseline. (NCT00676403)

Subjective Sleep Questionnaire: Quality of Sleep Subscale; Observed Change From Baseline

Subjective Sleep Questionnaire (SSQ): subject-rated instrument used to assess sleep behavior; measures sleep quantity and quality. Comprised of 5 items yielding 5 subscale scores: latency, hours of sleep, number of awakenings, total wake time after sleep onset, and quality of sleep. Quality of sleep subscale: visual analog scale ranging from 1 (very poor) to 100 (excellent) completed by the subject 30 minutes after waking; recall period is the night before. Change from baseline = score at observation minus score at baseline. (NCT00676403)

Mean Change From Baseline in the MOS Sleep Scale Domain, Sleep Quantity, Score at Week 24 (SB Treatment Period) Using LOCF

The MOS Sleep Scale is a participant-rated non-disease-specific measure with questions relating to four areas related to sleep: quantity (number of hours slept), sleep disturbance, sleep adequacy, and somnolence. The Sleep Quantity Domain score is a participant-rated estimate of the average number of hours of sleep per night over the month. (NCT00311363)

Responses are recoded so that a higher score reflects more of the attribute, and then converted to a 0 to 100 scale. The daytime somnolence score is based on questions pertaining to feeling drowsy or sleepy, trouble staying awake, and taking naps > 5 minutes. For daytime somnolence, a negative value indicates an improvement. (NCT00311363)

Median Time to Onset of First RLS Symptoms Using the 24-hour RLS Symptom Record at Week 36 (DB Treatment Phase)

The 24-hour RLS Record is a diary in which participants report the presence and severity of RLS symptoms (none, mild, moderate, or severe) for a 24-hour period, in 30-min increments beginning at 8AM on the day prior to the visit. Note: The median is not estimable with Kaplan-Meier methodology when fewer than 50% of participants experience an event; thus, no data are presented for the DB GEn 1200 mg arm. (NCT00311363)

"Relapse was defined as worsening of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) symptoms or withdrawal due to lack of efficacy during the 12-week double-blind (DB) treatment period (the period from Randomization on Visit 14 [Week 24] through the end of treatment). Worsening of symptoms was defined as an increase in the total International RLS (IRLS) Scale score by at least 6 or more points relative to the participant's score at Randomization, achieving an IRLS score of at least 15, and an assessment of much worse or very much worse on the investigator-rated Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C)."
