What is The ANTOP study: focal psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioural therapy, and treatment-as-usual in outpatients with anorexia nervosa - a randomized controlled trial about?
## Background: Anorexia nervosa is a serious eating disorder leading to high morbidity and mortality as a result of both malnutrition and suicide. the seriousness of the disorder requires extensive knowledge of effective treatment options. however, evidence for treatment efficacy in this area is remarkably weak. a recent cochrane review states that there is an urgent need for large, well-designed treatment studies for patients with anorexia nervosa. the aim of this particular multi-centre study is to evaluate the efficacy of two standardized outpatient treatments for patients with anorexia nervosa: focal psychodynamic (fpt) and cognitive behavioural therapy (cbt). each therapeutic approach is compared to a "treatment-as-usual" control group. ## Methods/design: 237 patients meeting eligibility criteria are randomly and evenly assigned to the three groups - two intervention groups (cbt and fpt) and one control group. the treatment period for each intervention group is 10 months, consisting of 40 sessions respectively. body weight, eating disorder related symptoms, and variables of therapeutic alliance are measured during the course of treatment. psychotherapy sessions are audiotaped
