Recruiting studies
- NCT06607146Recruiting
Computer training to improve hearing after cochlear implant
This study tests whether practicing listening exercises on a computer can help adults who just got a cochlear implant understand speech better and feel more satisfied with their hearing. If you are getting a cochlear implant at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, you might be able to join.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04070937Recruiting
Imaging findings and balance function in bilateral vestibulopathy
This study compares CT/MRI imaging results (radiological lesions) with balance system function tests in people with bilateral vestibulopathy. The goal is to see whether changes seen on scans match how well your inner-ear/balance nerves are working, which could improve understanding and future treatment decisions.
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+ - NCT04707885Recruiting
Testing how much residual hearing helps with cochlear implants
This study looks at whether keeping some natural (residual) hearing in the implant ear can improve outcomes with a cochlear implant. If you fit their hearing and implant-device requirements, they’ll measure your hearing before and after implantation to see how well you can use that remaining hearing.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–79 - NCT05402813Recruiting
Study of hearing loss in children with GJB2 or OTOF gene changes
This study follows children with hearing loss caused by changes in specific genes (GJB2 or OTOF). It helps researchers understand how hearing develops over time and how children may do with or without cochlear implants.
ParisAges Up to 16 years - NCT05572073Recruiting
Study of otoferlin hearing loss over time
This study follows people with hearing loss caused by changes (mutations) in the otoferlin gene to better understand how hearing and hearing-related test results change over time. It may help researchers prepare for future treatments by building a clear picture of the natural course of the condition.
Iowa City, IowaAges Up to 44 years - NCT05775367Recruiting
Cochlear implants for young children with one-sided deafness
This study checks whether cochlear implants help young children (ages about 7 months to under 3 years) who have very severe hearing loss in one ear. It also compares them with similar children who do not get implants, to understand what outcomes to expect.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 7 months–5.9 years - NCT05808543Recruiting
BEARS training to improve hearing skills in teens with two implants
This study tests a structured training program (BEARS) designed to help children and teenagers who use cochlear implants in both ears hear better in everyday life. It aims to improve hearing abilities by building on your implant settings and usual care.
Birmingham, BirminghamAges 8–16 - NCT05821959RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for hearing loss caused by otoferlin gene changes
This early-stage study tests a one-time gene therapy to help patients with profound hearing loss linked to otoferlin gene mutations. It may help hearing by delivering a working version of the otoferlin gene to the inner ear, followed by long-term monitoring.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges Any age - 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+ - NCT05955469Recruiting
Test two cochlear implant sound-fitting methods
This trial compares two ways of setting up a cochlear implant for adults who need one and speak French. It may help find a fitting approach that gives clearer sound by using a “tonotopy-based” method versus a standard method.
Saint-EtienneAges 18 years+ - NCT05962359Recruiting
Personalized coaching for language in young children with hearing loss
This trial tests a language program designed for young children with hearing loss who are getting cochlear implants. It aims to improve how well children understand and use spoken language, by using a “prediction” approach to tailor support.
Chicago, IllinoisAges birth–5 years - NCT06058767Recruiting
Hearing screening for preschoolers
This study offers a free hearing screening for children aged 2 to 6 who attend a community preschool. The goal is to find any hearing issues early so children can get the help they need.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–6 - NCT06229717Recruiting
Balance and hearing study for children with hearing loss
This study looks at how hearing loss affects balance in children aged 3 to 10. It tests balance and inner ear function to help understand the connection between hearing and balance problems.
HerningAges 3–10 - 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 - 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 - NCT06641999Recruiting
Tinnitus implant study for adults with chronic tinnitus and hearing loss
This trial tests if a special implant can reduce tinnitus loudness in adults who have had chronic tinnitus for at least 6 months and have some hearing loss. You may qualify if your tinnitus is severe and not helped by standard treatments like hearing aids or therapy.
Edegem, BelgiumAges 18 years+ - NCT06664697Recruiting
Study of the IotaSOFT Insertion System for cochlear implants
This trial tests a new robotic system that helps doctors insert cochlear implant electrodes more gently. It may lead to safer surgery and better hearing outcomes for people with severe hearing loss.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 12 years+ - NCT06723262Recruiting
Testing a new sound tuning for cochlear implant users
This trial studies a new way to adjust a cochlear implant's sound settings based on how the ear naturally processes pitches. It may help improve speech understanding over 6 months compared to standard settings.
LimogesAges 18 years+ - NCT06737185Recruiting
Comparing two ways to set a cochlear implant
This trial tests if a new method for programming cochlear implants helps people understand speech better than the usual method. If you are an adult getting a cochlear implant, this study could help improve how you hear.
DijonAges 18 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 - NCT06936449Recruiting
Long-term follow-up of a cochlear implant that releases medicine
This study is checking how well a cochlear implant that slowly releases a medicine (dexamethasone) to reduce swelling works over a long time. It is for people who already took part in the main study for this implant.
Englewood, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07226167Recruiting
Hearing aid benefit in noisy places
This study tests how well hearing aids help people hear in real-world noisy environments. If you already use hearing aids and have hearing loss in both ears that started after childhood, this trial may help understand how to improve your experience.
