This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), provides $307,962 to Restorear Devices LLC to test a non-invasive, non-pharmaceutical intervention using mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH) for symptomatic relief and management of chronic tinnitus. The project aims to evaluate whether this approach, delivered through Restorear's novel REBOUND device, can mitigate tinnitus severity and provide acute relief to patients. The award period runs from June 2025 to June 2026, with the goal of establishing MTH as a new therapy for tinnitus and preparing for larger clinical studies in Phase 2. This work builds on Restorear's prior research on using therapeutic hypothermia to protect against noise-induced hearing loss and preserve residual hearing in cochlear implant patients.
