Interventional, Open-label, Exploratory Study Investigating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of Lu AE04621 and the Active Metabolite Lu AA40326 After Ascending Oral Doses of Lu AE04621 to Patients With Parkinson's Disease

To evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of the Lu AE04621 and
metabolite after ascending oral doses of Lu AE04621 in patients with Parkinson`s Disease.

Dosing regimen will be decided at a dosing conference prior to cohort 2-8. Dose levels can be
increased, maintained or reduced both between cohorts but also within same cohort. In each
cohort 3 patients with Parkinson's Disease will be treated for 3 days, with increasing dose
each day.

If deemed appropriate the dosing period may be extended to 4 days. In addition, 3 extra
cohorts 9 to 11 are additional cohorts that might be used, if necessary to address the study
objectives. Up to 33 patients can be enrolled

Inclusion Criteria:

- The patient is diagnosed with idiopathic Parkinson Disease (consistent with the UK
Parkinson`s Disease Society Brain Bank Criteria for the Diagnosis of PD).

- The patient's Hoehn and Yahr Staging score is ≤ 3 in the "ON" state.

- The patient experiences motor fluctuations with at least 2.5 hours of "OFF" periods in
the awake time and has predictable morning "OFF" episodes, which have been consistent
within the past 4 weeks.

- The patient currently has a good response to L-DOPA and has been receiving a stable
dose of L-DOPA (≥3 doses per day of standard L-DOPA or ≥3 doses per day of Carbidopa
and L-DOPA, Extended-Release Capsules) during at least four weeks prior to screening.

Exclusion Criteria:

- The patient has cognitive impairment, defined as a Mini Mental State Examination(MMSE)
score ≤ 26 at the Screening Visit.

- The patient has severe disabling dyskinesia

- The patient takes or has taken disallowed recent or concomitant medication (CYP2D6
inhibitors, CYP 3A4 substrate, Dopamine agonists, 5 HT3 antagonists, Anti-viral
