Trial summary

In France the indication of bilateral cochlear implant (CI) is limited to specific cases. The impact on perception and language of bilateral CI simultaneous versus sequential has to be established before discussing the enlargement of indications. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Interest of the Bilateral Cochlear Implantation in the Deep Deaf Children Respect to the Unilateral Implantation - a Randomized Test

In France the indication of bilateral cochlear implant (CI) is limited to specific cases. The impact on perception and language of bilateral CI simultaneous versus sequential has to be established before discussing the enlargement of indications.

Read the detailed description

French multicentric study. 100 children, profound, congenitally deaf, aged between 10 months and 40 months, with indication of unilateral CI will be included. Randomization: 50 sequential at one year CI versus 50 simultaneous bilateral CI, their results compared. Main measures at 12 and 24 months: speech perception in silence and in noise. Other measures: sound localisation, oral language, vestibular impact, quality of life.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing bilateral cochlear Implantation in sequential and bilateral cochlear Implantation in simultaneous in people with Deafness, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Nov 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measurement of the score of perception of words in open list (time frame: 12 months after the implantation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Nov 2012.
