Yes, I know. But where would they give the injection?

Subcutaneous injections? So, behind the ear or somewhere around the ear?

Good find! What is the delivery method?

Oh man… it might be years before we know the results. It says the year 2027.

So, the clinical trial hasn't even started yet? Damn.

Imagine if Frequency Therapeutics had access to this delivery method.

Any updates?

So, all of the participants have hearing loss severe enough that they will be receiving cochlear implants regardless. I went back and re-read page 1 of this thread, and it states that the researchers will measure hearing differences by asking patients to record data using their implants. Could...

So, basically a study just to make sure it's safe? Will they even be conducting hearing tests afterward?

Any idea when the clinical trials are starting?

So, it would involve a small incision behind the ear? Would that allow access to the ear canal through that incision alone?

Well, that would involve going through the skull, which means surgery. This procedure would need to be performed under anesthesia in a hospital setting. It is significantly different from a simple injection done at your ear doctor’s office.

Wait, so they will not be injecting through the eardrum?

Does anyone know the status? Has the clinical trial started yet or will it be later this year?

All testing locations in Korea, so the best we'll be able to do is monitor their progress.
