  • Presence of cognitive impairment, as evidenced by a Mini-Mental Status Examination (MMSE) score of less than 24 during screening.
  • A Hoehn and Yahr score of five when "off" as per Question 3.18 of the MDS-UPDRS, assessed during screening.
  • Any history of a significant heart condition or cardiac arrhythmias within the past 5 years, any repolarisation deficits or any other clinically significant abnormal ECG as judged by the Investigator
  • Severe or ongoing unstable medical condition including a history of poorly controlled diabetes; obesity associated with metabolic syndrome; uncontrolled hypertension; cerebrovascular disease, or any form of clinically significant cardiac disease; clinically significant symptomatic orthostatic hypotension; clinically significant hepatic disease, renal failure or abnormal renal function.

Patients with illusions or hallucinations with no loss of insight will be eligible. Patients with mild depression who are well controlled on a stable dose of an antidepressant medication for at least 4 weeks before screening will be eligible.
