Detailed Description
Atypical Anorexia Nervosa (AAN) is a new diagnosis describing patients with malnutrition and significant weight loss yet "normal" weight. These patients responded poorly to HCR, the superior refeeding treatment in the parent trial, which was designed for low-weight patients with typical AN. The proposed trial will examine the safety and efficacy of a new treatment for AAN with the potential to improve treatment outcomes for this diverse and growing patient population. The major finding motivating the proposed trial is that participants with AAN gained weight 40 percent slower and required 3.0 additional days in hospital to restore medical stability on HCR, as compared to AN. The research team has developed Individualized Caloric Refeeding (ICR), which doses calories to weight consistent with other pediatric treatments (e.g. medication).
The primary purpose of the proposed trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of ICR to the new standard of care (HCR) in hospitalized patients with AAN. The investigators hypothesize that ICR will restore medical stability faster than HCR with no increase in electrolyte abnormalities. After hospitalization, the major barrier to care in AAN is lack of consensus on clinical remission and whether these formerly overweight patients should gain weight to recover. The research team will examine metabolic, hormonal and psychological markers during long-term follow-up, toward the goal of developing a definition of clinical remission in AAN.
Design Summary: Randomized controlled trial in N=74 participants age 12-24 with AAN, consented upon hospital admission, randomly assigned to ICR or HCR, followed daily in hospital and at 3, 6, 9 and 12 mo.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Time to Achieve Medical Stability in Hospital
Time Frame: Inpatient hospitalization from day of admission to day of discharge, average 1-2 weeks
|
Medical stability will be adjudicated by a five-point index: (1) 24 hour heart rate of 45 beats/min or more, (2) systolic blood pressure of 90 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) or more, (3) temperature of 35.6° C or more, (4) orthostatic increase in heart rate of 35 beats/min or less, (5) orthostatic change in systolic blood pressure of 20 mmHg or less.
|
Inpatient hospitalization from day of admission to day of discharge, average 1-2 weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Incidence of low serum electrolytes during refeeding in hospital
Time Frame: Inpatient hospitalization from day of admission to day of discharge, average 1-2 weeks
|
Incidence of low electrolytes will be defined as: (1) hypophosphatemia less than 3 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), (2) hypomagnesaemia less than 1.8 mg/dL, and (3) hypokalemia less than 3.5 milliequivalent per liter (mEq/L) during hospitalization.

Inpatient hospitalization from day of admission to day of discharge, average 1-2 weeks

Other Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Percentage median BMI (mBMI) Over 12 Months
Time Frame: 12 months post-study hospitalization
|
Measured BMI will be divided by the mBMI for age and sex per national growth data to give the percentage mBMI.
|
12 months post-study hospitalization
|
Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q) Score Over 12 Months
Time Frame: 12 months post-study hospitalization
|
The EDE-Q will be self-administered; scores range from 1 to 6, with higher scores indicating greater severity and a worse outcome.
|
12 months post-study hospitalization
