Recruiting PHASE2 Ototoxicity, Drug-Induced

Prevention study for Ototoxicity, Drug-Induced

Official title Prevention of Ototoxicity in NTM Patients Treated With IV Amikacin

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05730283

What this study is testing

What is ORC-13661?

ORC-13661 is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for ototoxicity, drug-induced.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the study drug, ORC-13361, in preventing hearing loss in patients with NTM infection who are undergoing treatment with IV amikacin therapy. The main question this study aims to answer is: Is ORC-13661 effective for preventing or lessening hearing loss induced by amikacin treatment?
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
