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.

Change From Baseline to the End of the Maintenance Period in International Restless Legs Rating Scale (IRLS) Sum Score
The IRLS consisted of 10 questions, each scored using a 5-point scale ranging from 0=not present to 4=very severe. The IRLS sum score was calculated by summing up the single scores of all applicable questions, i.e., the total sum score ranged from 0 (no RLS symptoms present) to 40 (maximum severity in all symptoms). A score between 31 and 40, indicates very severe RLS. A score between 21 and 30 indicates severe RLS. A score between 11 and 20 indicates moderate RLS. A score between 1 and 10 indicates mild RLS and a score of 0 means no RLS. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
Time frame: From Baseline to the end of the Maintenance Period (Day 106)
Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Item 1 to the End of the Maintenance Period
The Clinical Global Impressions Item 1 (Severity of Illness) score ranges from 0 to 7 as follows: 0=not assessed, 1=normal, not ill at all, 2=borderline ill, 3=mildly ill, 4=moderately ill, 5=markedly ill, 6=severely ill, 7=among the most extremely ill. The CGI Item 1 was completed during an interview between the participant and the investigator or designee. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
Time frame: From Baseline to the end of the Maintenance Period (Day 106)
Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
TEAEs were defined as events that started during the Treatment Period or within 30 days following the end of the Treatment Period (i.e., on or after the date of first patch application and within 30 days following the date of last patch removal + 1 day), or those events where the intensity worsened within this time frame.
Time frame: From Baseline to Safety Follow-Up (up to Week 20)
Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Leading to Withdrawals
TEAEs were defined as events that started during the Treatment Period or within 30 days following the end of the Treatment Period (i.e., on or after the date of first patch application and within 30 days following the date of last patch removal + 1 day), or those events where the intensity worsened within this time frame.

Change From Baseline in Restless Legs-6 Rating Scales (RLS-6) to the End of the Maintenance Period
The RLS-6 Rating Scales was designed to assess the severity of RLS and consisted of 6 subscales. The subscales assessed severity of symptoms at the following times of the day/evening: falling asleep, during the night, during the day at rest, and during the day when engaged in daytime activities. In addition, the subscales assessed satisfaction with sleep and severity of daytime tiredness/sleepiness. Scores for each of the 6 subscales ranged from 0 (completely satisfied) to 10 (completely dissatisfied). The change from baseline was derived for each of the subscales and reported in this outcome measure. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
