Study summary

Following screening visit and verification of inclusion/exclusion criteria and informed consent, participants will undergo a multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) and polysomnogram (PSG) assessments to confirm eligibility for randomization. Participants will be randomized to two groups: placebo or XW10172 MR. The drug will be taken orally at bedtime for 6 weeks of treatment that will consist of a 2-week dose escalation/titration period and a 4-week stable-dose maintenance period. There will be a 2-week safety period following dosing.

Inclusion criteria

  • Diagnosis of Parkinson's disease consistent with the UK-PD Society Brain Bank Criteria and PD duration at least 1 year with modified Hoehn and Yahr stage 1-3 in the OFF state.
  • Patient reported history of excessive daytime sleepiness (e.g., frequent dozing, nodding, or naps).
  • Anti-Parkinson's medications at stable doses for at least 1 month prior to the Baseline Visit and can maintain a fixed, stable dose throughout the study
  • Epworth Sleepiness Scale score of >10 at screening.
  • Female participants of must test negative in a serum pregnancy test at Screening and have a negative urine pregnancy test at the Baseline and Visit. Women with childbearing potential must use an acceptable method of during the study and for at least 30 days after completion of dosing.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Atypical or secondary parkinsonism
  • Significant medical conditions.
  • Evidence of moderate or severe sleep disordered breathing.
  • Drugs that affect sleep including CNS depressants and stimulants.
  • (MoCA) examine score \<24.
  • Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scales (HADS) >11.
  • Have an occupation that requires variable shift work or routine night shifts or travel across two or more-time zones.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

MMSE and MoCA

Short tests of memory and thinking, each scored out of 30. Lower scores suggest more difficulty; criteria give a range, either to include people with memory problems or to leave them out.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 19, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
