June 7, 2011 updated by: Otonomy, Inc.

A Prospective, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter, Phase 1B Study of OTO-104 Given as a Single Intratympanic Injection in Subjects With Unilateral Meniere's Disease

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of OTO-104 in subjects with unilateral Meniere's disease. The effectiveness of OTO-104 to reduce the symptoms of Meniere's disease will also be evaluated.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Meniere's disease is a debilitating disorder of the inner ear which includes symptoms such as vertigo, tinnitus, hearing loss and aural fullness. Meniere's disease may result from an imbalance of fluid in the inner ear. Several studies have shown that corticosteroids may help manage this imbalance yet the effect does not last very long. OTO-104 is a longer lasting corticosteroid which could provide significant benefit to patients with Meniere's disease.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 75 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Drug: OTO-104 (steroid) 3 mg
OTO-104 3 mg dose cohort, single intratympanic injection.
EXPERIMENTAL: OTO-104 (steroid) 12 mg
The start of 12 mg dose cohort is contingent on safety data from 3 mg dose cohort.
