Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in OHSA composite score at Week 8 during the double-blind RW period [ Time Frame: 8-week randomized withdrawal period (Week 12 to Week 20) ]
    Score change from baseline on the composite of Questions 1 - 6 of the Orthostatic Hypotension Symptom Assessment (OHSA).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from baseline in OHDAS item 1 (activities that require standing for a short time) at Week 8 post randomization [ Time Frame: 8-week randomized withdrawal period (Week 12 to Week 20) ]
    Orthostatic Hypotension Daily Activities Scale (OHDAS) is an assessment of how low blood pressure symptoms affect daily life.

  2. Change from baseline in OHDAS item 3 (activities that require walking for a short time) at Week 8 post randomization [ Time Frame: 8-week randomized withdrawal period (Week 12 to Week 20) ]
    Orthostatic Hypotension Daily Activities Scale (OHDAS) is an assessment of how low blood pressure symptoms affect daily life.

  • Participant has a diagnosis of possible or probable MSA of the Parkinsonian subtype (MSA-P) or cerebellar subtype (MSA-C) according to The Gilman Criteria (2008).
  • Participant has a diagnosis of possible or probable MSA of the Parkinsonian subtype (MSA-P) or cerebellar subtype (MSA-C) confirmed by the Enrollment Steering Committee (ESC).
  • Participant must meet the diagnostic criteria of nOH, as demonstrated by a sustained reduction in BP of ≥20 mmHg (systolic) or ≥10 mmHg (diastolic) within 3 min of standing as part of orthostatic standing test or being tilted up ≥60o from a supine position as determined by a tilt-table test.
  • Participant must score ≤4 on UMSARS Part IV at Visit 1 (Screening).
  • Participant must score at least a 4 on the OHSA item 1 at Visit 2 (Day 1).
  • Participant must be willing to not take any prohibited medications during the study.
  • If participant is female, the participant must not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning a pregnancy during the course of the study. A woman of childbearing potential must have a documented negative pregnancy test at screening.
  • During the study and for 30 days after receiving the last dose of the study drug, females of childbearing potential or males capable of fathering children must agree to use highly effective birth control measures (failure rate <1% when used consistently and correctly) or agree to abstain from sexual intercourse.
  • Participant is willing and able to provide signed and dated written informed consent to -participate prior to initiation of any study related procedures.

Participant is able to communicate well with the Investigator and clinic staff, understands the expectations of the study and is able to comply with the study procedures, requirements, and restrictions.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participant has a systemic illness known to produce autonomic neuropathy, including, but not limited to, amyloidosis and autoimmune neuropathies. Participant with diabetes mellitus (DM) will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the medical monitor and considered ineligible unless they meet all of the following criteria:

    • Well controlled type-2 DM in treatment with only oral medications and diet
    • HbA1C of ≤7.5% performed during screening or up to 12 weeks before screening
    • No clinically evident peripheral neuropathy (e.g., normal sensory examination on peripheral extremities)
    • No known retinopathy (e.g., annual ophthalmic exam is sufficient)
    • No nephropathy (e.g., absence of albuminuria and GFR >60).
  • Participant has a known intolerance to other NRIs or SNRIs.
  • Participant currently uses concomitant antihypertensive medication for the treatment of essential hypertension.
  • Participant has used strong CYP1A2 inhibitors or inducers within 7 days or 5 half lives, whichever is longer, prior to Visit 2 (Day 1) or requires concomitant use until the Safety follow-up Visit.
  • Participant has changed dose, frequency, or type of prescribed medication for orthostatic hypotension within 7 days prior to Visit 2 (Day 1).
  • Midodrine and droxidopa (if applicable) must be tapered off and stopped at least 7 days prior to Visit 2 (Day 1).

  • Participant has had any malignant disease, other than carcinoma in situ of the cervix or basal cell carcinoma, within the past 2 years prior to Screening.
  • Participant has a known gastrointestinal (GI) condition, which in the Investigator's judgment, may affect the absorption of study medication (e.g., ulcerative colitis, gastric bypass).
  • Participant has psychiatric, neurological, or behavioral disorders that may interfere with the cognitive ability of the participant to give informed consent, understand and comply with study procedures, or interfere with the conduct of the study.
  • Participant is currently receiving any investigational drug or has received an investigational drug within 30 days of dosing. An investigational drug is defined as a drug that is not approved by a regulatory agency (e.g., Food and Drug Administration [FDA]).
  • Participant has a clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding(s) (e.g., alanine aminotransferase [ALT] or aspartate aminotransferase [AST] ≥3.0 x upper limit of normal [ULN]; blood bilirubin [total] ≥3.0 x ULN; estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <30 mL/min/1.73 m2, or any abnormal laboratory value that could interfere with safety of the participant).
  • Participant has demonstrated lifetime suicidal ideation and/or suicidal behavior, as outlined by the C-SSRS (Baseline/Screening Version). Participant should be assessed by the rater for risk of suicide and the participant's appropriateness for inclusion in the study.
  • Participant has a concurrent disease or condition (e.g., COVID-19), or recent surgery, that in the opinion of the Investigator, would confound or interfere with study participation or evaluation of safety, tolerability, or absorption of the study drug.
  • Participant has known hypersensitivity to ampreloxetine (ampreloxetine hydrochloride), or any excipients in the formulation.
  • Major surgery (i.e., procedures involving higher risk for infection and extended recovery period, such as, joint replacement, gastric bypass, open heart surgery, organ transplant, etc.) occurring less than 4 weeks prior to enrollment.
