Auditory Nerve Test System During Vestibular Schwannoma Resection

Feasibility of Auditory Nerve Test System for Optimization of Simultaneous Translabyrinthine Vestibular Schwannoma Resection With Cochlear Implantation

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 25 Apr 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The Auditory Nerve Test System (ANTS) is a novel device that stimulates the auditory nerve much like a cochlear implant. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate feasibility of the ANTS during translabyrinthine surgery for vestibular schwannoma resection. If the auditory nerve is kept intact, then the patients will also receive a cochlear implant at the same time potentially alleviating the morbidities caused by a vestibular schwannoma and asymmetric sensorineural hearing loss.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Prior cochlear implant use in either the contralateral or ipsilateral ear
  • Prior microsurgery or stereotactic radiation for this tumor
  • Auditory nerve integrity cannot be visually confirmed after tumor resection

Age

  • Younger than 12 years of age

Other

  • Pathology/tumors other than a vestibular schwannoma
  • Tumor size \> 2.5 cm
  • Serviceable hearing in the tumor ear
  • Unwilling to comply with research protocol

Who the study is looking for

  • Vestibular schwannoma (sporadic or Neurofibromastosis Type-2)
  • 12 years of age or older
  • Tumor size \< 2.5 cm
  • Non-serviceable ipsilateral hearing
  • No prior cochlear implant or auditory brainstem implant use
  • No prior microsurgery or stereotactic radiation for this tumor
  • Patient decision and medical clearance for a translabyrinthine approach for tumor resection
  • Willingness to comply with research protocol
  • Reasonable expectations of cochlear implant performance
  • Auditory nerve integrity visually confirmed following tumor resection
