| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The Number of DVD at Week 12 (Defined as the 4-week [28 Days] Interval From Week 9 Through Week 12). | Week 12 (3 months) | The number of DVDs at Week 12 (defined as the 4-week \[28 days\] interval from Week 9 through Week 12) was compared between OTO-104 and placebo. Week 12 = 12 weeks after dosing at the Baseline visit. Baseline occurred at the end of lead-in and no intervention was administered during lead-in. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Effect of Vertigo on Daily Activities - Number of Days Sick at Home or Bedridden at Week 12 (Month 3) | 3 months | Questionnaire - subjects were instructed to record the effect on their daily activities of their total vertigo experienced that day using a 5-point scoring system: 0 = normal activity 1. = slight limitation 2. = moderate limitation 3. = sick at home 4. = bed ridden |
| Otoscopic Examination - Tympanic Membrane Perforation at Week 12 (Month 3) | 3 months | Otoscopic examinations were conducted at each visit. It was considered important to understand if the tympanic perforation that resulted from the IT injection at the Baseline visit persisted at the end of study visit (Week 12 \[Month 3\]). |

Participant flow
Recruitment details
166 subjects were randomized and 165 subjects received study drug. The most common reason for screen failure was that there was not a sufficient number of definitive vertigo days in the 28-day lead-in period. The first subject enrolled on October 27, 2015, and the last subject completed the study on July 18, 2017. A total of 47 centers in the US enrolled subjects.
Pre-assignment details
In addition to meeting all screening visit inclusion criteria, potential subjects had to experience and record at least 4 and a maximum of 22 definitive vertigo day (DVD) during the 4 week lead-in period. In addition, the subject needed to complete at least 22 of 28 diary entries during the 4-week lead-in period. A DVD was defined each day the subject recorded a vertigo episode lasting at least 20 minutes corresponding to a vertigo score of 2 or more.

The number of DVDs at Week 12 (defined as the 4-week \[28 days\] interval from Week 9 through Week 12) was compared between OTO-104 and placebo. Week 12 = 12 weeks after dosing at the Baseline visit. Baseline occurred at the end of lead-in and no intervention was administered during lead-in.
Time frame: Week 12 (3 months)
Population: The full analysis set subjects who were randomized, received study drug, had a baseline definitive vertigo measurement for the 4-week lead-in period and at least one 4-week definitive vertigo measurement post-baseline, i.e., at least 1 post-baseline daily diary entry.
