Readiness included the procedure itself
The work combined clear communication with clinical expertise. Participants could discuss the biopsy with the team and understand what to expect from the visit.

The work behind the result
Make room for procedure questions.
The biopsy requirement made clear communication and experienced clinical care central to readiness.
Restrictive eligibility
Interest in the study still had to be considered against its eligibility requirements.
How WCR responded
The team discussed study requirements and the screening process so candidates understood both clinical fit and the commitment involved.
Required biopsies
Participants needed to understand the biopsy before deciding whether to take part.
How WCR responded
Staff explained the process and answered questions, supporting informed decisions about participation.
Concern about discomfort
Procedural discomfort was a meaningful concern for candidates.
How WCR responded
An experienced dermatologist performed the biopsies with careful attention to comfort and minimizing discomfort. Staff made room for questions without describing the procedure as painless.
Outcomes in context
Retention well into the study
At the latest study update, all but one randomized participant remained in follow-up with excellent protocol compliance. The study was nearing its end; this was an interim retention result, not a final completion rate.
