NCT ID NCT07304024

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a one-month treatment combining the allergy drug clemastine fumarate with engineered sound can improve the ability to hear speech in background noise for people aged 45-65 with age-related central auditory processing disorder (CAPD). About 344 participants will be randomly assigned to receive the drug plus sound, drug plus white noise, or placebos. The goal is to see if the treatment helps the brain repair myelin in hearing circuits, making it easier to focus on a conversation in a noisy room.
