Treatment response was calculated based on the international consensus criteria (Mataix-Cols et al., 2016) which require a ≥35% reduction of the individual patient’s pre-treatment Y-BOCS score in order to be classified as a clinically relevant response. A patient is classified as remitted if, in addition to response, the post-treatment Y-BOCS score is ≤12 points.
