- The total score on the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (YBOCS) [ Time Frame: Change in total score from baseline, assessed at screening, baseline, week 4, 8 &10 ]Improvement is measured by a lower total score
- Frequency of SAEs and AEs leading to discontinuation [ Time Frame: From Screening through study completion, up to 10 weeks ]Percent difference between troriluzole vs placebo treatment emergent adverse events.
- Improvement in functional disability as assessed by the change in Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) [ Time Frame: From baseline through study completion (up to 10 weeks) ]Change is measured as "mild" or "moderate" on the SDS
- Improvement in global functioning responses assessed on the CGI-I scale. [ Time Frame: From baseline through study completion (up to 10 weeks) ]Change is measured as "much improved" or "very much improved" on the CGII scale
