Recruiting studies
- NCT07389213Recruiting
Can brain stimulation and hearing aids slow memory loss in older adults with hearing loss?
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (rTMS) combined with hearing aids can help slow down thinking and memory decline in older adults who have age-related hearing loss.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 50–85 - NCT05312983Recruiting
Testing new hearing tests to better diagnose age-related hearing loss
This study is developing a set of hearing tests to more precisely identify age-related hearing loss. It may help you (or the study team) better understand what type of hearing problem you have and how to guide next steps.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05694039Recruiting
Track thinking changes in older adults with hearing loss
This study follows older adults who have age-related hearing loss to see whether wearing hearing aids helps protect thinking and memory over time. You may be included if your hearing loss is the type that hearing aids can usually improve and if your thinking test scores suggest mild cognitive difficulties.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 60–85 - NCT06174038Recruiting
Hearing aids for memory and hearing loss study
This study tests whether hearing aids can help people with both hearing loss and early memory problems. It lasts for a period of time, and you will be asked to wear hearing aids daily.
New York, New YorkAges 55–75 - NCT06580847Recruiting
Choir for older adults with untreated hearing loss
This trial tests whether joining a choir helps older adults with untreated hearing loss. If you have mild-to-moderate hearing loss and do not use hearing aids, this study may be a good fit for you.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06882889Recruiting
Comparing domestic vs imported hearing aids for age-related hearing loss
This trial compares two types of hearing aids (one made in China, one imported) to see which works better for age-related hearing loss. You might benefit if you have moderate to severe hearing loss and are willing to test both devices.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 60–85 - NCT07192757Recruiting
Trial to help you hear speech in noisy places
This study tests a new way to help people with age-related hearing loss understand conversations in noisy environments. It might improve your ability to hear clearly when there is background noise.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 55–80 - NCT07304024RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a drug and sound therapy for age-related hearing difficulty
This trial tests whether a combination of an antihistamine (clemastine fumarate) and specially designed sounds can improve how the brain processes hearing in middle-aged adults with mild hearing loss. It might help if you have trouble understanding speech in noisy settings.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 45–65 - NCT07637981RecruitingPhase 2
Safety Study of DX243 for Hearing Loss in Noise
This study tests a new medicine (DX243) to see if it is safe and well-tolerated in people with hearing difficulties, especially trouble hearing speech in noisy environments. The goal is to understand how the body processes this medicine and whether it might help improve hearing.
Liège, LiègeAges 18–75 - NCT06803394Enrolling by invitation
Hearing health study for older Korean Americans
This study is testing a hearing program designed for Korean American adults aged 60 and older who have hearing loss but do not yet use a hearing aid. It aims to improve hearing health by working with you and a family member or friend.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04971954Recruiting
Nicotine test to improve age-related hearing processing
This study tests whether nicotine can improve how your brain processes sounds, which can get worse with age. It’s designed for non-smokers without significant hearing or medical/medication issues.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT03451383Recruiting
Study brain changes in older breast cancer patients
This study follows older women with newly diagnosed breast cancer to see who might develop thinking or memory problems over time. It may help researchers understand early brain risk and how treatment and other factors relate to cognitive decline.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 60–105 - NCT04171323Recruiting
Active mind training to improve thinking and delay dementia
This study tests an “active mind” computer-based program to help improve thinking skills and possibly slow the process toward dementia. You may be randomly assigned to different program options to see which approach works best for your goals.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 55–89 - NCT07557771Recruiting
Testing Middle Ear Function with Sound Waves
This research study tests a new way to measure how well your middle ear (the tiny bones behind your eardrum) works using sound waves instead of traditional hearing tests. It involves three groups: people with normal hearing, people with conductive hearing loss, and people scheduled for cochlear implant surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for age-related hearing loss?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14 recruiting age-related hearing loss studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a age-related hearing loss trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a age-related hearing loss trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
