3. Patient who is Hoehn & Yahr stage less than or equal to 3

4. Patient who is male or female aged greater than or equal to 18 years at Screening

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patient who has atypical Parkinson's syndrome(s) due to drugs (e.g., metoclopramide, flunarizine), metabolic neurogenetic disorders (e.g., Wilson's Disease), encephalitis, cerebrovascular disease, or degenerative disease (e.g., progressive Supranuclear Palsy)

2. Patient who has a history of pallidotomy, thalamotomy, deep brain stimulation, or fetal tissue transplant

3. Patient who has dementia, active psychosis or hallucinations, or clinically significant depression

4. Patient who has a lifetime history of suicide attempt (including an active attempt, interrupted attempt, or aborted attempt), or has suicidal ideation in the past 6 months as indicated by a positive response ("Yes") to either Question 4 or Question 5 of the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at Screening

5. Patient who has a history of symptomatic orthostatic hypotension with a decrease of less than or equal to 20 mmHg in systolic blood pressure (SBP) or great than or equal to 10 mmHg in diastolic blood pressure when changing from supine to standing position after having been at supine position for at least 5 minutes within 28 days prior to the Screening Visit, or SBP less than 105 mmHg at study entry, or reports clinical signs of clinically significant orthostatic hypotension within 28 days prior to the Screening Visit.

6. Patient who is receiving therapy with a dopamine agonist either concurrently or has done so within 28 days prior to the Screening

7. Patient who is receiving therapy with 1 of the following drugs either concurrently or within 28 days prior to screening: MAO-B inhibitors, DA releasing agents, DA modulating agent, DA antagonists, neuroleptics, or other medications that may interact with DA function.

8. Patient who is currently receiving central nervous system active therapy (e.g., sedatives, hypnotics, antidepressants, anxiolytics), unless the dose has been stable for at least 28 days prior to Screening Visit and is likely to remain stable for the duration of the study.

11. Patient who has any other clinically relevant hepatic, renal and cardiac dysfunction, or other medical condition or laboratory abnormality including abnormal plasma magnesium level, which would in the judgment of the investigator, interfere with the patient's ability to participate in the study

13. Patient with C-reactive protein levels of 2x of upper limit of normal range

14. Female patient who is pregnant or is breastfeeding or is of childbearing potential without adequate contraception.
