A Phase 2 Study to Assess the Effects of SUL-238 on High Energy Phosphates With ³¹P-MRS in Patients With Early, Untreated Parkinson's Disease
The main goal of the study is to investigate how well the new drug SUL-238 works in Parkinson's Disease (PD). This is done by means of an MRS scan. An MRS scan is similar to a regular MRI scan. It will also learn about the safety of new drug SUL-238. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does new drug SUL-238 improve the mitochondrial function in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD)? * What medical problems do participants have when taking new drug SUL-238? Researchers will compare new drug SUL-238 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if SUL-238 works to improve mitochondrial function in patients with PD. Participants will: * Take new drug SUL-238 or a placebo every day for 28 days * Visit the clinic once every 2 weeks for checkups and tests during the treatment period and finally 28 days after the last dose of SUL-238 * Keep a diary of their symptoms and the number of times they use oral new drug SUL-238
