Hasselt, LimburgAges 18–90 - NCT04591093Recruiting
Tested deep vs shallow sound settings in cochlear implants
This study looks at how changing the “stimulation depth” (how deep the sound signals are delivered in the implant) affects hearing performance in people with cochlear implants. It may help find the best settings for improving hearing outcomes for suitable adults.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05558514Recruiting
Mapping sound settings for cochlear implants in adults
This study looks at how best to set (map) cochlear implant sound settings after surgery. It may help improve how well you hear and understand speech in everyday listening situations, especially by testing your hearing and sound perception.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05634356Recruiting
Study of how early speech learning changes with social input
This study looks at how infants learn speech sounds through everyday social interaction, like parent talk. It may help researchers understand what supports early speech development, including in babies with typical hearing and those with hearing loss or hearing devices.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 7 months–2 years - NCT05898659Recruiting
Tested new cochlear fitting with or without sound timing sync
This study compares two ways of setting up a cochlear implant to deliver sound, either with or without synchronized timing. It may help improve how well French-speaking adults with newer hearing loss can hear everyday sounds.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT06053190Recruiting
Clear speech and memory in older adults
This study is testing whether listening to clear speech (slow, precise) helps older adults understand and remember sentences better. If you're between 60 and 90, right-handed, and a native English speaker, this trial may help you or your loved one learn more about how to improve communication as you age.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 60–90 - NCT06226558Recruiting
Long-Term Health of Children with Congenital CMV in NY
This study will follow children born in New York State who were tested for cytomegalovirus (CMV) as newborns. It aims to understand their long-term health and development, whether they were confirmed to have CMV, a false positive, or even a late detection if born early.
Stony Brook, New YorkAges birth–1 year - NCT06249919RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of NS101 for sudden hearing loss
This trial tests an experimental medicine called NS101 for people who have had a sudden, severe hearing loss in one ear that did not get better with standard steroid treatment. The goal is to see if NS101 can help restore hearing better than steroids alone.
Bucheon-siAges 19–70 - NCT06354010Recruiting
Study of Early-Onset Hearing Loss Related to GJB2 Gene
This study looks at hearing loss that starts in early adulthood (after age 16) and is linked to a specific gene change (GJB2). Researchers want to understand how this type of hearing loss changes over time.
Tampa, FloridaAges 30–55 - NCT06453343Recruiting
Comparing two surgical approaches for cochlear implants
This study compares two different surgical methods for placing a cochlear implant (a device that helps with hearing). It is for adults who have lost hearing after learning to speak and are eligible for a specific type of implant. The goal is to see which approach works best.
