  • Has a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score ≥19 at Screening
  • Has a diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD)
  • Has psychotic symptoms that may impair function and are severe enough to warrant treatment with an antipsychotic agent

  • Has undergone ablative procedures such as a pallidotomy, thalamotomy, or treatment with focused ultrasound, or has an implanted deep brain stimulator
  • Has current evidence of an unstable neurological, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, hematologic, or other medical or psychiatric disorder, including cancer or malignancies that, in the judgment of the Investigator, would jeopardize the safe participation of the subject in the study or significantly interfere with the conduct or interpretation of the study
  • Has a history of myocardial infarction, unstable angina, acute coronary syndrome, or cerebrovascular accident within the last 6 months prior to Screening
  • Has any of the following:
  • greater than New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class 2 congestive heart failure

  • an implantable cardiac defibrillator
  • Has a known personal or family history of long QT syndrome or family history of sudden cardiac death
  • Requires treatment with a medication or other substance that is prohibited by the protocol

  • Is suicidal at Screening or Baseline
  • Has a history of a significant psychotic disorder prior to or concomitantly with the onset of PD including, but not limited to, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder
  • Had dementia prior to or concomitantly with the onset of motor symptoms of PD
  • Positive COVID-19 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or antigen result in the last 2 weeks prior to screening
