The purpose of this study is to gather long-term data on the FDA approved CI532 cochlear implant, and CP1000 (Nucleus 7) sound processor

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

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

Appropriate candidates will receive a CI532 cochlear implant and be fit with the CP1000 sound processor. Imaging will be completed pre-op, intra-op, and post-op to assess implant location. Speech perception testing as well as subjective questionnaires will be administered over 12 months.

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.

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

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Adults 18 years or older who have a bilateral postlinguistic sensorineural hearing loss.
  2. Limited benefit from amplification as defined by test scores of 40% correct or less in the ear to be implanted and 50% or less in the contralateral ear on a recorded monosyllabic word test I. Consistent with the Minimum Speech Test Battery (2011), it is required that all subjects be evaluated at 60 dBA presentation level.
  3. Bilateral moderate sloping to profound hearing loss
  4. Minimum of 30 days experience with appropriately fit bilateral amplification, fit using the standardized National Acoustics Laboratory (NAL) fitting method
  5. Proficient in English
  6. Ability to complete testing -

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Previous cochlear implantation
  2. Pre-linguistically deafened (onset of hearing loss at less than two years of age)
  3. Ossification or any other cochlear anomaly that might prevent complete insertion of the electrode array
  4. Duration of severe to profound hearing loss greater than 20 years
  5. Diagnosis of retro-cochlear pathology
  6. Diagnosis of auditory neuropathy
  7. Unrealistic expectations on the part of the subject regarding the possible benefits, risks, and limitations that are inherent to the surgical procedure and use of the prosthetic device
  8. Unwillingness or inability to comply with all investigational requirements
  9. Additional cognitive, medical or social handicaps that would prevent completion of all study requirements-

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Pre- to 6 Months Post-implantation Speech Recognition in Quiet in the Implanted Ear Alone
Time Frame: Preoperatively and 6 months post sound processor activation
Group mean Consonant Nucleus Consonant (CNC) word recognition in quiet measured pre-operatively and again at 6 month post sound processor activation compared to the group mean score in the preoperative, best unilateral condition. The CNC word test has a score range of 0-100% with higher values indicating better scores.
Preoperatively and 6 months post sound processor activation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Evaluation of Change in Pre and Post Implantation Speech Recognition in Noise Scores in the Implanted Ear Alone
Time Frame: Preoperatively and 6 months post sound processor activation
Group mean AzBio sentence in noise score in the best unilateral condition compared to the group mean score in the preoperative, unilateral aided condition. The AzBio sentence test has a score range of 0-100% with higher values indicating better scores.
Preoperatively and 6 months post sound processor activation
Change in Pre and Post Implantation Score on the Health Utility Index-3 (HUI3)
Time Frame: Preoperatively and 6 months post sound processor activaton
Group mean HUI3 score post sound processor activation compared to the scores measured preoperatively. The HUI3 consists of eight attributes of general health (vision, hearing, speech, mobility, dexterity, emotion, cognition, and pain) with five or six levels per attribute. For each respondent, health status is described as a vector that combines the levels of each attribute. This information is then converted into a utility score of HRQL on a scale from perfect health (1.0) to death (0).
Preoperatively and 6 months post sound processor activaton

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Frequency Specific Thresholds and Speech Recognition in Noise or Quiet
Time Frame: 12 months post-activation
Frequency-specific thresholds at standard audiometric frequencies for each ear, and speech recognition in quiet (CNC words) or noise (AzBio sentences) in best unilateral and/or electric alone.
12 months post-activation
Speech Perception in Quiet and Noise With Change in Cochlear Implant Programming
Time Frame: Following 12-month study visit but prior to 36-month interval.
Two optional study visits to evaluate whether a change in cochlear implant programming, specifically an increase in the number of channels will improve subject speech perception in quiet and noise.
Following 12-month study visit but prior to 36-month interval.
