Summary

This study evaluates whether a gel containing sodium thiosulfate deposited via a trans-tympanic injection on the round window of the middle ear could reduce the ototoxicity caused by the drug Cisplatin among patients with head and neck cancer treated by chemoradiation. One ear selected randomly will be treated while the other will serve as control.

DRUG

Trans-tympanic injection of a sodium thiosulfate gel

A sodium thiosulfate hyaluronate gel will be prepared by mixing 0.55 ml of a 25% solution of sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate (Seacalphyx, DIN 02386666, Seaford Pharmaceuticals Inc.) and 0.55 ml of a hyaluronate gel (Healon 10 mg, Abbott Medical Optics Inc.). On the day before each Cisplatin treatment an otologist will deposit 0.1 ml of the gel exactly on the round window of the middle ear.
