About this study

In 2014 radiological lesions at one or more semicircular canals (SCC) were described using CT \& MR imaging in subjects presenting advanced hearing and vestibular deterioration caused by the p.P51S mutation in COCH. Similar lesions were also described in other non-genetic advanced hearing and vestibular deterioration as well. With this prospective observational study it is the purpose to inventory imaging results of candidates for cochlear implantation which are routinely performed during the preoperative work up, since these patient present severe hearing impairment at both ears. A considerable part of them might present vestibular deterioration as well. It is the purpose to detect possible presence of these SCC lesions on CT and MR in this population and the prevalence of these lesions compared to DFNA9 patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hearing Loss, Sensorineural and Bilateral Vestibular Deficiency, run by Jessa Hospital at 1 site in Belgium.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact sebastien P JanssensdeVarebeke, MD (011337420, drsjanssens@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

CT/MR of SCC (time frame: at time of recruitment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 31 Mar 2022.
