An early start followed by continued screening
Five participants screened within the first month after activation and all five subsequently randomized. Additional screening continued at approximately five participants per month.
Phase 3 · Obesity
Screening in two days. Momentum that continued.
Early engagement with private-practice patients supported the first screening appointment. Recruitment continued beyond that first visit, alongside coordination of outside assessments and counseling.

The work behind the result
Prepare the first visit. Sustain the next ones.
The team’s work continued beyond activation and the first screening appointment.
Screening immediately after activation
The first screening required a prepared candidate as soon as the site was activated.
How WCR responded
WCR engaged patients from the investigator’s private practice early. Prescreening and communication helped prepare candidates before the first visit.
Sustaining recruitment after the initial group
A fast first appointment needed to be followed by continued screening activity.
How WCR responded
The team continued candidate engagement and prescreening beyond the initial group, supporting the ongoing recruitment effort.
Coordinating outside appointments
Ophthalmology assessments and counseling had to fit alongside research visits.
How WCR responded
Staff coordinated ophthalmology appointments, nutrition services, lifestyle counseling, and study visits with participants.
