NOTES: * ANCHOR participants who are randomized to the treatment arm must have completed initial treatment and are within two weeks of initial treatment completion. * ANCHOR participants who were treated initially with topical treatment are only eligible within two weeks after the last topical treatment application. * ANCHOR participants who were treated initially with both topical and ablation treatments are eligible within two weeks of completing both treatments. * ANCHOR participants who are randomized to the active monitoring arm are eligible if they are within two weeks of randomization
