Lenire Tinnitus Clinical Trial Takeaways

95%

95% of compliant TENT-A2 tinnitus clinical trial patients reported improvement when evaluated after 12 weeks.2

91%

91% of TENT-A2 participants saw sustained improvement in tinnitus severity when evaluated at 12-months post-treatment.2

600+

Lenire has shown to provide clinically significant relief from tinnitus in clinical trials involving more than 600 participants.4

What are Clinical Trials?

Clinical trials aim to develop knowledge in a specific field. Trials help us understand and validate the effectiveness of new treatments.

Trials are regarded as the most responsible way of developing new medical interventions from research to public use. During trials, patients receive medical interventions (i.e. devices or drugs) and are observed by experts to monitor reactions.

Example: Lead by a Principal Investigator and an expert research team, 326 patients used Lenire for 12-weeks during TENT-A1 (Lenire Tinnitus Clinical Trial 1). 1

Why are Clinical Trials Important?

Ensuring Public Safety and Effectiveness

Effectiveness

Clinical trials examine the new interventions to test if they are effective at curing / soothing a condition or preventing it from worsening.

Safety

Clinical trials rigorously examine the safety of new intervention to understand if any risks outweigh benefits.

Unique Side Effects

Trials examine new interventions to identify unique factors that may cause adverse side effects on a patient.

Peer Reviewed & Real World Research

Publication of clinical studies validates research and allows healthcare professionals to trust scientific research in pursuit of adopting new medical practices.

During peer review, independent experts evaluate and validate methodologies and claims to determine if the research is worthy of publication in scientific journals.

Lenire Tinnitus Clinical Trial Summaries

Treatment Evaluation of Neuromodulation for Tinnitus Stage 3 (TENT-A3)

Repeated Measure Controlled Trial
2022, 112 participants

Following TENT-A3, Lenire became the first and only FDA Approved device for the treatment of tinnitus. TENT-A3 results are currently being peer-reviewed for publication. TENT-A3 demonstrated that Lenire’s dual mode approach was more effective at treating moderate or worse tinnitus than sound-alone.

Treatment Evaluation of Neuromodulation for Tinnitus Stage 2 (TENT-A2)

Double-Blinded Randomized Trial
2019, 191 participants

Lenire’s second clinical trial, TENT-A2, optimised the Lenire’s settings to build off TENT-A1’s success.As a result, TENT-A2 demonstrated improved performance to TENT-A1.

Treatment Evaluation of Neuromodulation for Tinnitus Stage 1 (TENT-A1)

Double-Blinded Randomized Tinnitus Clinical Trial
2017, 326 participants

Landmark tinnitus clinical trial, TENT-A1, demonstrated that Lenire is safe and effective in reducing tinnitus in a large cross section of tinnitus patients.

Real World Evidence

Real World Clinical Setting Trial
2022, 204 Analysed Real World Cases

Conducted at the German Hearing Center (DHZ), this study demonstrated that Lenire can safely achieve a meaningful improvement for 85% of participants in a real-world clinical setting. Results were published in Brain Stimulation, February 2022.

Tinnitus Alleviation Via Sensory (TAVS) Stimulation

Safety and Feasibility Study
2015, 60 participants

The safety and feasibility study was designed to assess the safety of treatment prior to proceeding to large scale clinical trials.
