Try something like this:

(defun full-match-p (regex string) (multiple-value-bind (start end array-1 array-2) (cl-ppcre:scan regex string) (declare (ignore array-1 array-2)) (and (= start 0) (= end (length string)))))

Simpler: (scan "^ABC$" "ABC") (scan "^ABC$" "ABCD") The first return value of SCAN serves as a generalized boolean.
