OTO-104 (steroid) 12 mg

Arm Description

The start of 12 mg dose cohort is contingent on safety data from 3 mg dose cohort.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of two ascending OTO-104 doses relative to placebo. Safety assessments will be performed for 3 months post single intratympanic injection of OTO-104 or placebo.

Secondary Outcome Measures

The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical activity of two OTO-104 doses relative to placebo. Change in baseline for vertigo frequency will be evaluated with descriptive statistics.
The impact of tinnitus on activities of daily living will be measured.
Hearing loss in the affected ear will be measured by audiometric examination.
Quality of life will be measured by patient reported questionnaire.
Severity of vertigo episodes will be measured by the patient reported vertigo score.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
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.
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.
