Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine if Lactated Ringer's solution is effective in patients undergoing chemotherapy with cisplatin for head and neck cancer in regards to cisplatin-induced hearing loss.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

About one-third of people who have been given Cisplatin, as part of their chemotherapy treatment, develop hearing loss. The purpose of this study is to determine if some degree of hearing loss can be prevented by use of Lactated Ringer's solution in the middle ear. To study this, patients will use drops in their ears; Lactated Ringer's will be placed in one ear and an inactive saline solution will be placed in the other. Ofloxacin, an eardrop antibiotic will be placed in each ear at the same time. Each participant will receive a hearing evaluation before each dose of Cisplatin and another evaluation 2 to 4 weeks after the final treatment.

1

Each patient will receive a bottle containing normal saline and 0.03% ofloxacin.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Normal Saline and 0.3% ofloxacin

Intervention Type DRUG

The patient will be instructed to place one dropper full of solution in the external auditory canal. The bottle will be marked right or left ear and are only to be used in the designated ear. The drops will be administered at the start time, 30 minutes after chemotherapy starts and hourly for 4 hours after infusion.
