Who can take part

You may be able to join if

1. At least 30 years of age at the time of Screening.
10. Average of ≥ 3 h total OFF time/day on Screening home diaries, with at least 2.5 hours OFF on each diary day.
11. During Screening, capable of adequately identifying ON, OFF, and dyskinetic states (>80% concordance) through properly completed ON/OFF diaries.
12. Female participants of childbearing potential and male participants with female partners of childbearing potential must agree to either remain abstinent or use adequate and reliable contraception throughout the study and for at least 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug has been taken.
13. Able and willing to give written informed consent approved by an institutional review board, and to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study-related procedures.

2. Severe or disabling dyskinesias or OFF expected to preclude successful study participation, in the opinion of the investigator.
20. Has alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels greater than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or a degree of hepatic impairment using the Child-Pugh classification of B or C.
21. Significant renal impairment as determined by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than or equal to 60 ml/min.
