About this trial

This study aims to optimize a treatment package for the relapse prevention treatment of AN. In the Preparation Phase, we examined accessibility and feasibility of the treatment package.

In the current Optimization Phase, we will identify which components of treatment contribute to positive outcomes after acute hospitalization. We will carefully evaluate maintenance of remission, measured by rate of weight loss and end-of-trial status.
