In this study, researchers want to find out if a single dose of FX-322 may improve hearing. FX-322 is given by an injection through your eardrum into the middle ear. The active ingredients diffuse (move) from the middle ear into the inner ear where the hearing hair cells are located. Injections through the eardrum are commonly performed in our offices and are well tolerated.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"about-sensorineural-hearing-loss-snhl\">About Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL)<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL) results from excessive sound levels, loud sounds for extended periods of time, viral infections, immune system problems, trauma, and exposures to certain medications. When SNHL occurs, it is usually irreversible, and managed with hearing aids or cochlear implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Worldwide, an estimated 1.1 billion people are at risk for hearing loss due to exposure to damaging levels of sound, accounting for about 90% of all hearing loss.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-do-i-learn-more\">How do I learn more?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>If you are interested in participating, please visit the study website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.clarahealth.com\/studies\/hearing-study\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Visit Website<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can a single dose medication potentially restore lost hearing?
