About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Meniere's Disease focused on measuring Meniere's, hearing loss, vertigo, tinnitus, ebselen

Eligibility Criteria

19 Years - 70 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis of probable or definite Meniere's Disease by AAO-HNS 1995 criteria within 12 months of study enrollment;
  • Voluntarily consent to participate in the study;

    • Stable hormonal contraceptive for at least 3 months prior to study through study completion; or
    • Surgical sterilization (vasectomy) of partner at least 6 months prior to study.
  • Females of non-childbearing potential should be surgically sterile (bilateral tubal ligation with surgery at least 6 months prior to study, hysterectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy at least 2 months prior to study) or be at least 3 years since last menses.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Current use or within 90 days prior to study of ototoxic medications such as aminoglycoside antibiotics (gentamicin, tobramycin, amikacin, streptomycin); platinum-containing chemotherapies (cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin); or loop diuretic (furosemide);

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of three dose levels of SPI-1005 compared to placebo on vertigo, tinnitus and sensorineural hearing loss in 40 adults with Meniere's disease.
Detailed Description
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled safety, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic study of oral SPI-1005 in adults with Meniere's disease. All subjects will undergo baseline audiometric testing and have their severity of sensorineural hearing loss, tinnitus and vertigo determined before the start of a 21-day course of treatment with SPI-1005 or placebo. During treatment with SPI-1005, and 7 days and 28 days following the cessation of SPI-1005, subjects will have their hearing loss, tinnitus and vertigo assessed. Additional testing including electrocochleography will be performed at baseline, at the end of SPI-1005 treatment, and 28 days after the SPI-1005 treatment has stopped. Six outpatient visits will be performed over a 7-week period.

Intervention Name(s)
SPI-1005
Other Intervention Name(s)
ebselen
Intervention Description
Ebselen is a small molecule mimic and inducer of glutathione peroxidase (GPx). GPx reduces reactive oxygen species by the binding of free radicals to its selenium moiety. Ebselen has strong anti-inflammatory characteristics.
