NCT ID NCT05628233

First seen Jul 02, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether the drug SENS-401 can prevent hearing loss caused by cisplatin, a common chemotherapy. Adults with cancer who are scheduled to receive cisplatin take SENS-401 before, during, and after treatment. Hearing is measured with a standard test to see if the drug protects against damage.
