Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Presence of unilateral, progressive vestibular schwannoma.
  • Vestibular schwannoma larger than 2 mm.
  • Profound hearing loss, defined by pure-tone audiometry thresholds or word recognition score, in the affected ear.
  • Able and willing to comply with all trial requirements, including willingness to participate in a separate long term follow-up study after completion of this trial.

You may not qualify if:

  • Prior diagnosis of NF2 and/or bilateral vestibular schwannoma.
  • Prior surgery or radiation therapy for vestibular schwannoma.
  • Clinical history consistent with endolymphatic hydrops (documented fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss and/or episodic vertigo) in the affected ear.
  • Profound hearing loss, defined by pure-tone audiometry thresholds or word recognition score, in the unaffected ear.
  • Prior participation in a clinical trial with an investigational drug within six months prior to administration (Day 0), or any prior participation in a gene therapy clinical trial.
