INTRODUCTION: Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common among patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), due to both the disease itself and anti-PD drugs. We hypothesized that transdermal drug administration may result in fewer GI problems. This prospective observational study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01159691) investigated effect of switching to rotigotine transdermal patch from oral anti-PD medications in patients with PD and existing GI symptoms.
METHODS: Patients were enrolled if their physician was planning to switch them to rotigotine because of GI symptoms experienced while receiving oral anti-PD medications. Effectiveness assessments included a visual analog scale (VAS) measuring intensity of GI symptoms from 0 (no disorder) to 100 mm (extremely severe disorder), a questionnaire on the frequency and intensity of six individual GI complaints (heartburn, bloating, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea), each rated 0-12 for a sum score of 0-72, and patient satisfaction regarding GI symptoms over approximately 6 weeks after switching.
RESULTS: Of 75 patients who received rotigotine, 58 had follow-up data available for final analysis. Intensity of GI complaints improved numerically on both the VAS (47.5 ± 24.4 mm [n = 65] at baseline, 19.7 ± 23.3 mm [n = 58] after around 6 weeks) and the sum score of GI complaints (11.2 ± 9.0 at baseline, 2.1 ± 4.4 [n = 58] after around 6 weeks). Fifty of 58 patients were "satisfied" or "very satisfied" regarding GI symptoms over around 6 weeks following switch to the patch.
CONCLUSION: This study suggests that a switch from oral anti-PD medications to rotigotine transdermal patch may improve existing GI symptoms among patients with PD. Additional controlled studies are needed to confirm this finding.
