<p>The Medical Research Council is currently funding a study of adolescent anorexia
nervosa patients with autism spectrum disorder symptoms: ‘The Triple A study (Adolescents
with Anorexia and Autism): A search for biomarkers’. The research aims to identify
vulnerable patients, at an early stage, who may be unlikely to respond to current
treatment for anorexia, with the longer-term aim of shaping individualised support
and treatment strategies. The study is led by King's College London and is due to
conclude next year.</p>
