Meniere disease

This study tests a drug called SPI-1005 in 200 adults with Meniere's disease, a condition that causes hearing loss, ringing in the ears, and dizziness. Participants will take the drug twice a day for 6 or 12 months to see if it is safe and tolerable. The goal is to find a treatme…

This phase 2 trial tests whether anakinra (Kineret), an anti-inflammatory drug, can improve hearing in people with Meniere's disease or autoimmune inner ear disease who cannot take steroids. About 57 participants will receive daily injections of anakinra or a placebo for 42 days,…

This study tests a small, TENS-like device that sends a mild electric signal to improve balance and walking in older adults. Researchers will measure walking speed and stability in 120 participants aged 60 and older, as well as younger adults for comparison. Participants will wal…

This study tests whether a combination of two existing drugs, nortriptyline and topiramate, can reduce vertigo and other symptoms in people with Meniere's disease. Forty adults with active Meniere's will take the drugs or a placebo for 8 weeks. The goal is to see if this approach…

This study tests whether a 20-minute session of passive music therapy, delivered through an app just before entering the operating room, can lower anxiety and pain in adults undergoing ear, nose, or throat surgery. Five hundred participants will be randomly assigned to receive mu…

This study tests whether adding neck therapy (cervical mobilization) to standard balance exercises can reduce dizziness and improve balance in people with Meniere's disease. 33 adults with Meniere's will be split into three groups: one getting only their usual medication, one add…

This study aims to better understand disorders that cause hearing to fluctuate, such as Meniere's disease. Researchers will use advanced MRI scans and blood tests to look for biomarkers linked to hearing changes. The goal is to identify different types of these disorders and pave…

This study collects medical information and samples from people with hearing, balance, taste, smell, voice, speech, or language disorders. Researchers aim to use this data for future studies and to find candidates for other research. Participants receive standard care, and no exp…

This study aims to uncover genetic and biological differences between people with Menière's disease, those with vestibular migraine, and healthy individuals. Researchers will analyze blood samples from 250 participants to look for specific gene variations and biohumoral factors. …

This study measures how well people with and without vestibular (balance) disease can sense motion through vision and balance. Researchers hope to learn how aging and disease change motion perception. About 300 healthy adults and patients with balance disorders will participate i…

This study looks at whether inner-ear balance (vestibular) problems make reading harder for children with hearing loss. Researchers will test 90 children, some with normal hearing and some with severe hearing loss, measuring their ability to see clearly during head movements and …

This study looks at whether sleep disorders make vertigo worse for people with Ménière's disease, a condition that causes hearing loss, ringing in the ears, and dizziness. Researchers will track 100 adults to see if those with more severe vertigo also have more sleep problems. Th…
