Investigation of a Device to Deliver Intra-Operative Therapeutic Hypothermia for Hearing Preservation in Cochlear Implantation
The goal of this interventional clinical study is to investigate the use of mild therapeutic hypothermia for preservation of residual hearing in cochlear implant surgery. The main questions the trial aims to answer are: Is mild therapeutic hypothermia safe for use during cochlear implantation? Is mild therapeutic hypothermia effective at …
Atorvastatin to Reduce Cisplatin-Induced Hearing Loss Among Individuals With Head and Neck Cancer
Background Cisplatin is used to treat head and neck cancer. People who take this drug are at risk for hearing loss. Atorvastatin is a drug used to treat high cholesterol. It might reduce the risk of cisplatin-induced hearing loss. Objective To find out if atorvastatin reduces hearing loss in people …
HEARS-SLP: Providing SLP-Delivered Hearing Health Care to Individuals With Cognitive Impairment
Building upon the HEARS audiologist-community health worker (CHW) model, this study intervention will be delivered by a speech-language pathologist (SLP). The primary objective of the study is to develop and test an affordable and accessible hearing rehabilitative intervention that will be delivered by a SLP to individuals with cognitive impairment.
OTC Hearing Aid and MCI
The goal of this study is to better understand if, in patients with mild to moderate hearing loss who are also experiencing mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), Over-the-Counter (OTC) hearing aids: improve communication Whether the magnitude of benefit depends on the patient's level of …
Cholesterol and Antioxidant Treatment in Patients With Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS)
Patients with biochemically confirmed SLOS are being treated with cholesterol supplementation and antioxidant medication. They are carefully monitored with visits to clinic, laboratory testing including cholesterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol levels, vitamin levels, blood counts and liver and kidney function. On a serial basis, no more often than once a year, the …
Early Age-Related Hearing Loss Investigation (EARHLI)
Early Age-Related Hearing Loss Investigation (EARHLI) is a single site study that will randomize late middle age adults to either a hearing intervention (including hearing aids) or a health education intervention. Participants will be followed for 1 year. This study will provide information on reducing cognitive decline in those at …
HEARS-NPS: Addressing Hearing Loss as a Common Unmet Contributor of Neuropsychiatric Symptoms
This randomized controlled trial study aims to evaluate a revised hearing care intervention for older adults with Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD).

A Phase I/II Clinical Trial with SENS-501 in Children Suffering from Severe to Profound Hearing Loss Due to Otoferlin (OTOF) Mutations
This study intends to assess safety, tolerability, and efficacy of SENS-501 in children between the ages of 6-31 months with pre-lingual hearing loss due to a mutation in the Otoferlin gene.
EARLY DETECTION OF DEAFNESS IN A MEMORY CENTER
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL), like neurodegenerative diseases, appears insidiously with age. As major public health issues, they are nonetheless under-diagnosed because the presence of one can hinder the objectification of the other. The CogAudio project aims to detect early and in an ambulatory mode in a memory centre a speech …
