This study looks at why some people who survived cancer as children or young adults develop hearing loss. It will check their hearing and review their past cancer treatments to find risk factors, so that future patients can be monitored more closely.
This study compares how patients’ quality of life changes when people who have hearing loss from platinum chemotherapy use a hearing aid versus not using one. It may help understand whether hearing aids improve daily life during treatment.
This study looks at how cisplatin chemotherapy affects hearing and balance in people with head and neck cancer. It compares patients who get cisplatin with those who only get radiation, to understand and possibly reduce these side effects.
This study looks at how tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and hearing problems may develop after radiotherapy alone or with certain chemotherapy for high-risk head and neck cancer. The goal is to better understand who is more likely to experience these side effects.
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.
This study records how the hearing nerve responds to speech sounds during planned brain surgery. It aims to understand hearing loss better and may help improve future treatments.
