NCT ID NCT06437054

First seen May 12, 2026 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This pilot study aimed to test a combination of drugs (dexamethasone, hyaluronic acid, and a green dye) injected into the ear for people with stubborn hearing loss. The goal was to see if the mixture was safe and stayed in the ear long enough to help. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no data was collected.
