Trial summary

In this clinical trial, an un-controlled, repeated measures open design with within-subject comparison will be used to evaluate the effect of the device under investigation on sound perception. This design was shown to be successful in previous studies for the evaluation of sound coding strategies. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The intended users of the Naída M hearing system are people who suffer from profound sensorineural hearing losses up to complete deafness. The users could be recipients that are already users of an Advanced Bionics CI but also people who suffer from deafness or profound hearing loss and were not previously equipped with a hearing device. In case of contralateral acoustic hearing, the user might use a Naída CI M90 on the side with profound sensorineural hearing loss and a Naída Link M90 as a hearing aid on the contralateral side to aid the residual acoustic hearing.

Who may be able to join

  • · CI users with a CII, HiRes90K (Advantage) or HiRes Ultra (3D) implant system Bilateral users: two implant systems Bimodal users: hearing aid contralateral
  • Minimum of 18 years of age
  • Minimum of six months experience with their implant system
  • Minimum of six months experience with the Naída CI Q-Series sound processor
  • Ability to give feedback on sound quality
  • Speech reception thresholds of no more than 5 dB SNR > 10 at the French Matrix test obtained during previous visits in the clinical routine
  • Fluent in French language

Who cannot join

  • Difficulties additional to hearing impairment that would interfere with the study procedures
  • Concurrent participation in other study
  • Incapacity for consent

About this study

In this clinical trial, an un-controlled, repeated measures open design with within-subject comparison will be used to evaluate the effect of the device under investigation on sound perception. This design was shown to be successful in previous studies for the evaluation of sound coding strategies.

Furthermore, a within-subject comparison decreases the variance in the results allowing for fewer subjects when the population using the investigational device is not large in general.

Read the detailed description

The primary endpoint of this clinical investigation is the difference in speech intelligibility measured in percent correct with AutoZoomControl compared to an omnidirectional microphone on Naída M hearing devices.The Naída CI M90 sound processor is a behind-the-ear (BTE) sound processor based on the Phonak Marvel hearing aid platform. It replaces the market approved Naída CI Q-Series processors. The Naída Link M90 hearing aid is a behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid based on the Phonak Marvel hearing aid platform. It is especially designed to be used for bimodal CI users equipped with a Naída CI M90 sound processor.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Bilateral users: two implant systemsFor bilateral CI users two Naida CI M sound processors (one per ear) will be used during the study.
Receives: Device: Naida CI M hearing device
Bimodal users: hearing aid contralateralFor bimodal subjects there will be one Naida CI M sound processor on the implanted ear as well as one hearing aid on the contralateral ear.
Receives: Device: Naida CI M hearing device

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Difference in speech intelligibility in noise

    The primary endpoint of this clinical investigation is the difference in speech intelligibility measured in percent correct with AutoZoomControl compared to an omnidirectional microphone on Naída M hearing devices. The French Matrix Test will be used and percentage correct will be recorded.

    Measured: 2 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Differences in speech perception in noise

    ZoomControl versus Omnidirectional microphone and AutoZoomControl versus ZoomControlon Naída M hearing devices will be compared.

    The French Matrix Test will be used and percentage correct will be recorded.

    Measured: 2 months

  2. Differences in localization abilities

    AutoZoom control versus Omnidirectional microphone, ZoomControl versus Omnidirectional microphone and AutoZoomControl versus ZoomControlon Naída M hearing devices will be compared.

    The directions (0,+/-90,180 degrees) from where the sentences of the French Matrix Test are presented have to be determined.

    Percentage correct will be recorded.

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cochlear Hearing Loss, run by Advanced Bionics AG at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2024. 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 Switzerland. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Difference in speech intelligibility in noise (time frame: 2 months). 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 1 May 2024.
