Summary

This trial is testing a new drug called LY3056480 to see if it can help adults with certain types of hearing loss. The drug is injected directly into the ear. Researchers want to find out if this method can improve hearing in people who haven't had success with other treatments.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-65 with stable sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) can join this trial. They must have consistent word recognition and hearing levels for at least six months. Those with tinnitus, conductive hearing loss, genetic hearing issues, severe deafness in any frequency, or previous LY3056480 trials cannot participate.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a new medication called LY3056480 to see if it helps people with stable SNHL. It's a phase 2 study which means they're looking at how effective the drug is and gathering more information on its safety.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of LY3056480 are not specified here but could include reactions typical of new medications such as headaches, nausea, dizziness or allergic responses. Participants will be monitored closely for any adverse effects.

Mechanism Of Action

Other Research
Common treatments for Sensorineural Hearing Loss (SNHL) often target the molecular pathways involved in cochlear cell damage and auditory nerve function. These treatments include antioxidants to reduce oxidative stress, anti-inflammatory agents to mitigate inflammation, and neurotrophic factors to support nerve cell survival and regeneration. LY3056480, being studied in clinical trials, likely targets specific pathways or receptors involved in hearing loss, such as those regulating cellular stress responses or promoting hair cell regeneration. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for SNHL patients as it provides insight into how these treatments can potentially restore hearing function or prevent further deterioration by addressing the underlying causes of hearing loss at a molecular level.
