Do there exist prime numbers of the form $n \cdot 2^n + 1$, when $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and $n > 1$?

Recently, I was studying prime sequences of the form $k \cdot 2^n + 1$, and I noticed that primes of the form $n \cdot 2^n + 1$ almost do not exist, except for the $n = 1$ case. Are there other prime numbers, or infinitely many prime numbers, when $n > 1$?
