Recruiting studies
- NCT04696835Recruiting
Brain-light test with pediatric hearing aids
This study uses a special non-painful sensor test on the head (functional near-infrared spectroscopy, or fNIRS) to understand how young children’s brains respond while wearing hearing aids. It may help improve how hearing aids are adjusted for babies and toddlers with hearing differences.
LilleAges 3 months–1.5 years - NCT07417956Recruiting
Measuring reflex in cochlear implant for kids
This study tests a new way to program cochlear implants in children by measuring a tiny muscle reflex in the ear. This could help doctors set the sound levels more accurately without needing the child to respond.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges birth–7 years - NCT05468567Recruiting
Sound perception study for people with noise-related ear injury
This study looks at how people who have noise-related ear trauma perceive sounds, using a 3D (three-dimensional) sound setup. The results may help doctors better understand sound processing after acoustic injuries.
LyonAges 18–65 - NCT06499805Recruiting
Barriers and helpers to using OTC hearing aids
This study looks at what helps or makes it harder for adults to successfully use over-the-counter hearing aids. It focuses on people who have mild to moderate hearing loss in both ears and have never tried a hearing aid.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–89 - NCT07335874Recruiting
Hearing screening follow-up for congenital infection in newborns
This study checks if babies who fail their newborn hearing test might have a hidden infection from birth. It looks for cytomegalovirus (CMV), a common virus that can affect hearing, using a simple test.
StrasbourgAges birth–1 month - NCT06112860Recruiting
Over-the-counter hearing aids for memory loss study
This trial tests whether over-the-counter hearing aids can help people with mild memory loss (mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia) who also have hearing loss. You and a communication partner will participate together to see if improving hearing can also help with thinking and communication.
Evanston, IllinoisAges 60–90 - NCT05668338Recruiting
Hearing-device registry study for MED-EL users
This is an observational study that collects information from people using MED-EL hearing devices (with or without an implant) to better understand real-world hearing care. It may help improve future planning, support, and device use for patients like you.
BochumAges Any age - NCT06248398Recruiting
Robot-assisted cochlear implant and hearing in noise
This trial tests whether a robot-assisted cochlear implant surgery improves how well you hear speech in noisy environments. If you have severe hearing loss in both ears and are a candidate for a cochlear implant, this study may help show if the robotic method leads to better hearing outcomes.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05923203Recruiting
Testing combined hearing with cochlear implant and hearing aid
This trial studies a “combined” hearing approach that uses a cochlear implant plus low-frequency sound from a hearing aid. It may help people with different hearing profiles (including cochlear-implant users) hear more naturally by testing how well this combined setup works.
Edmond, OklahomaAges 5 years+ - NCT06400992Recruiting
Testing Sky hearing technology in children
This study is testing the Sky CI sound processor in children aged 6–16 who use cochlear implants and/or hearing aids. The goal is to see how well the Sky technology works for hearing in noise.
ParisAges 6–16 - NCT05365646Recruiting
In-ear device to test and improve speech clarity for fall risk
This study checks whether an in-ear device can enhance how clearly you speak, especially for people at risk of falling. You may do simple walking/standing tasks and use a study mobile app to help collect information.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 55 years+ - NCT04296097Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for severe, steady disabling tinnitus
This study tests whether deep brain stimulation (a device that sends controlled signals to the brain) can reduce severe, constant tinnitus that has not improved with usual treatments. It may help lower the loudness distress and improve daily quality of life for people whose tinnitus is especially disabling.
GrenobleAges 18–75 - NCT07509788Recruiting
Studying hearing with two ears in kids with cochlear implants
This trial looks at how hearing with both ears helps children with cochlear implants listen more easily and think better. It compares kids with implants to those with normal hearing.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 6–18 - NCT05129748RecruitingPhase 2
Prevent hearing damage during cisplatin chemotherapy
This Phase 2 trial tests whether sodium thiosulfate and mannitol can reduce hearing damage (ototoxicity) in adults receiving cisplatin chemotherapy. It may help protect hearing while you get cancer treatment.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06039332Recruiting
Comparing ways to fit a bone conduction implant
This study compares two ways to adjust a BONEBRIDGE bone conduction implant for people with hearing loss. It aims to find which fitting strategy gives better sound quality and daily benefit.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06237790Recruiting
Comparing speech understanding: gene therapy vs. cochlear implant
This study compares how well people with severe hearing loss from birth understand speech after either gene therapy (which fixes a faulty gene) or a cochlear implant (a device that helps you hear). It includes healthy people with normal hearing as a comparison group, and it aims to see which treatment works better for understanding spoken language.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 6 months+ - NCT06340633RecruitingPhase 2
Testing SPI-1005 with cochlear implant surgery
This trial tests an oral medication, SPI-1005, given to adults receiving a cochlear implant to see if it improves hearing outcomes. It may help people with moderate to profound hearing loss who are scheduled for implant surgery.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT06844071Recruiting
Safety of Sentio bone conduction implant in teens
This study tests the safety and performance of the Sentio bone conduction implant (a device that helps you hear by sending sound through the skull) in teenagers aged 12 to 17. It may be an option if you have certain types of hearing loss that cannot be helped by regular hearing aids.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 12–18 - NCT06894303Recruiting
Remote programming for cochlear implants in routine follow-up
This study tests if cochlear implants can be adjusted remotely (without visiting the clinic) during regular follow-ups. If you have a compatible implant and sound processor, you may be able to take part from home.
