Brief Summary:
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group comparison study of AT-5214 in subjects with moderate to severe primary palmar hyperhidrosis (sweaty palms). This study will compare two different oral (tablet) doses of AT-5214 (study drug) versus a matched placebo. Approximately 120 subjects will be enrolled at approximately 10 study sites.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. PHIS Reduction [ Time Frame: Week 6 (End of Study) ]
    Proportion of subjects with at least a 2-point reduction in the Palmar Hyperhidrosis Impact Scale (PHIS) from their mean baseline value (rated on an 11-point scale, 0-10).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Absolute change in PHIS [ Time Frame: Week 6 (End of Study) ]
    Absolute change from the mean baseline value in PHIS

  2. Change in Sweat Production [ Time Frame: Week 6 (End of Study) ]
    Proportion of subjects with a ≥50% reduction from the mean baseline value in gravimetrically measured sweat production.

  3. Absolute change of Sweat Production [ Time Frame: Week 6 (End of Study) ]
    Absolute change from mean baseline value in gravimetrically measured sweat production.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Number of Subjects with Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1) to End of Study (Day 43) ]
