Preclinical data showed rotigotine increased depth of sleep in rats.

This stuff would be comical if it weren't so pathetic that they have got nothing else going on than to waste money on this.
As you may recall, Neupro was recalled because it would crystalize before being asorbed into the body. I participated in a study last year to test the "new" formula". My biggest problem was from the adhesive used to keep the patch on.

It is my guess, they are getting ready to bring this product back on the market.
