Inclusion criteria

* Adult males/females, 18-75 years of age at the time of enrollment. * Diagnosis of definite Meniere's Disease by AAO-HNS Amended 2015 Criteria. * Hearing loss of ≥30 dB at 250, 500, or 1000 Hz at study enrollment. * At least two of three active symptoms (tinnitus; aural fullness; vertigo or dizziness) of Meniere's disease by AAO-HNS Amended 2015 Criteria, within 3 months of study enrollment.

Exclusion criteria

* Current, or within 60 days prior to study enrollment, use of IV ototoxic medications * History of otosclerosis or vestibular schwannoma. * History of significant middle ear or inner ear surgery in the affected ear. * Conductive hearing loss with air-bone gap ≥15 dB, otitis media, or mixed hearing loss. * Significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematologic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, neurological, or psychiatric disease. * Current use or within 30 days prior to study enrollment systemic steroids. * Current use or within 7 days prior to study enrollment intratympanic steroids.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events84 daysNumber of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Change in Low Frequency Hearing Thresholds Measured by Pure Tone Audiometry84 daysCo-primary efficacy endpoint; assessment of hearing by pure tone audiometry
Change in Words-in-Noise Test Score84 daysCo-primary efficacy endpoint; assessment of speech discrimination by Words-in-Noise (WIN) Test (WIN Score Improvement from Baseline \>=4 words) The Words-in-Noise (WIN) test is a speech discrimination test which involves the presentation of specific words against a background noise (multi-talker babble). A total of 35 words are presented to each ear, with 5 words presented at each of 7 different signal-to-noise ratios representing increasing difficulty as the test progresses. The WIN Score is the sum total number of words correct (minimum 0, maximum 35) for each ear. A higher WIN Score is considered to be a better outcome. A WIN Score Improvement is an increase in score from baseline. The co-primary efficacy endpoint is the number of participants who had a WIN Score Improvement from Baseline of \>=4 words out of the maximum of 35 words, in one or both ears.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change in Tinnitus Severity84 daysTinnitus Functional Index (0-100) where higher score is worse outcome. Mean change from baseline is reported, where a decrease in score is a better outcome.
Change in Tinnitus Loudness84 daysTinnitus Functional Index Question #2 -- How Strong or Loud was your Tinnitus? (0-10) where higher score is worse outcome. Mean change from baseline is reported, where a decrease in score is a better outcome.
Change in Vertigo Severity84 daysVertigo Symptom Scale (0-60) where higher score is worse outcome. Mean change from baseline is reported, where a decrease in score is a better outcome.
Change in Aural Fullness84 daysAural Fullness Scale (0-10) where higher score is worse outcome. Mean change from baseline is reported, where a decrease in score is a better outcome.
Change in Dizziness84 daysDizziness Handicap Inventory (0-100) where higher score is worse outcome. Mean change from baseline is reported, where a decrease in score is a better outcome.
