InsideOut in collaboration with Northside Clinic and Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney, Austin Hospital Melbourne, and Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital are currently examining the application of a novel biological treatment, Oxytocin, for Anorexia Nervosa (AN). This randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trial, funded by the NHMRC, investigates the efficacy of intranasal oxytocin as an adjunct to nutritional rehabilitation treatment in AN.

InsideOut in collaboration with the Boden Collaboration are conducting a trial which aims to develop a set of health promotion messages that will be acceptable and effective in addressing eating disorders and obesity at the population level. These messages will be assessed by a broad range of stakeholders in the obesity and eating disorder fields. A trial assessing the effects these messages among the public will also be conducted.

InsideOut in collaboration with the University of San Francisco, University of Otage and Kings College London are conducting a follow-up study of 171 individuals with Anorexia Nervosa whose severity of illness was assessed and staged between 5 and 7 years ago using the CASIAN instrument. The Anorexia Nervosa Staging system aims to provide a system of classification to enable opportunities for early intervention, to prevent illness progression, and to match treatments to stage for this group.

InsideOut in collaboration with our partners at the Kings College London, and Birmigham Eating Disorder Service are conducting a research trial developing a child and adolescent version of the CASIAN instrument used to stage Anorexia Nervosa in Adults. The instrument once validated will be used to identify kids early in the illness progression so as to help them gain access to services early and maximise remission rates.

InsideOut in collaboration with Sydney Children's Hospital Network, Sydney Local Health District, South East Sydney Local Health District and Northern Sydney Local Health District have been funded by the Medical Research Futures Fund (MRFF) through Sydney Partners to examine the translation of evidence based treatment for children and adolescents with Anorexia Nervosa within NSW districts. The trial will determine barriers and enablers for the embedding of evidence based care in hospital and community settings and develop mechanisms to support it.
