Per-arm endpoint measurements with 95% confidence intervals where reported. Source: trial results section.

Speech Recognition Primary · Up to 30 minutes in each of two listening conditions.

The metric for speech recognition is the percentage of Perceptually Robust English Sentence Test Open-set (PRESTO) sentence keywords that were correctly repeated in order.

Cochlear Implant Recipients6230 – 80
In +10 decibel target-to-masker ratio two-talker babble
GroupValue95% CI
Cochlear Implant Recipients229 – 28
Temporal Modulation Detection Threshold Primary · Up to 30 minutes

The metric for temporal modulation detection is the modulation depth relative to 100% modulation which the participant can detect 71% of the time.

GroupValue95% CI
Cochlear Implant Recipients-3.1-6.2 – -0.4
Spectral Modulation Detection Thresholds Primary · Up to 30 minutes

The metric for spectral modulation detection is the magnitude of the peak-to-valley ratio of the spectrally modulated stimulus which the participant can detect 71% of the time.

GroupValue95% CI
Cochlear Implant Recipients12.84.8 – 34
Reading Span Task Performance Primary · Up to 20 minutes

The outcome is the percentage of letters recalled in the correct position across all trials, out of a total of 75 letters.

GroupValue95% CI
Cochlear Implant Recipients5733 – 91
Digit Span Task Performance Primary · Up to 20 minutes

The outcome is the total percentage of digits recalled in the correct position across all trials, out of a maximum of 220.

GroupValue95% CI
Cochlear Implant Recipients6449 – 92
Free Recall Task Performance Primary · Up to 10 minutes

The outcome is the average number of words recalled from each list, with a possible maximum of 12.

GroupValue95% CI
Cochlear Implant Recipients3.32.1 – 4.8
Digit Updating Task Performance Primary · Up to 20 minutes

The outcome is the percentage of numbers correctly recalled across boxes, out of a total of 49.

GroupValue95% CI
Cochlear Implant Recipients5718 – 86
Running Digit Span Task Performance Primary · Up to 15 minutes

The outcome is the average number of digits recalled in the correct position relative to the last item in the sequence across lists.

GroupValue95% CI
Cochlear Implant Recipients2.41.1 – 3.9
Stream Segregation Primary · Up to 1 hour

The metric for stream segregation is the percent change in digit recall that occurs when voice pitch differs from the distractor digits (85, 120, and 150 Hz) relative to when voice pitch between target and distractor digits is the same (200 Hz).

Sponsor's own description

Individuals with cochlear implants will complete tasks which measure auditory resolution, working memory, stream segregation, and speech recognition in the presence of competing speech using their everyday clinical device settings. The relationship between these tasks will be examined to identify the factors which predict successful speech recognition in the presence of competing speech.
