This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Initially, patients were randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms (D-cycloserine 250 mg twice daily or placebo twice daily), and treated for up to 4 weeks in the absence of unacceptable toxicity.
Later, the design was changed to randomize patients to 1 of 3 arms as follows:
* D-cycloserine 50 mg twice daily for up to 12 weeks
* D-cycloserine 200 mg twice daily for up to 12 weeks
* Placebo twice daily for up to 12 weeks
