in Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity and the Loss of the Residual
Hearing following Cochlear Implantation
This session will focus on the therapeutic advances in hearing
preservation associated with Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity and
following cochlear implantation. Professor Yann Nguyen (ENT
Surgeon, Hôpital de la Pitié Salpêtrière, Paris, France) and
Professor Stephen O'Leary (Head of Otolaryngology at the University
of Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia) will co-present this
session.

Congenital Hearing Disorders
This session will address gene therapy applied to patients
suffering from congenital profound deafness and will be presented
by Professor Catherine Birman (Otorhinolaryngologist, Director of
the Sydney Cochlear Implant Centre, Sydney, Australia).
- 3rd Session: Conclusion: What Does the Future Hold for these
New Therapies?

About Sensorion
Sensorion is a pioneering clinical-stage biotech company, which
specializes in the development of novel therapies to restore,
treat, and prevent hearing loss disorders, a significant global
unmet medical need. Sensorion has built a unique R&D technology
platform to expand its understanding of the pathophysiology and
etiology of inner ear related diseases, enabling it to select the
best targets and mechanisms of action for drug candidates.
It has two gene therapy programs aimed at correcting hereditary
monogenic forms of deafness, developed in the framework of its
broad strategic collaboration focused on the genetics of hearing
with the Institut Pasteur. SENS-501 (OTOF-GT) currently being
developed in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial, targets deafness caused by
mutations of the gene encoding for otoferlin and GJB2-GT targets
hearing loss related to mutations in GJB2 gene to potentially
address important hearing loss segments in adults and children. The
Company is also working on the identification of biomarkers to
improve diagnosis of these underserved illnesses.
Sensorion’s portfolio also comprises clinical-stage small
molecule programs for the treatment and prevention of hearing loss
disorders. Sensorion’s clinical-stage portfolio includes one Phase
2 product: SENS-401 (Arazasetron) progressing in a planned Phase 2
proof of concept clinical study of SENS-401 in Cisplatin-Induced
Ototoxicity (CIO) and, with partner Cochlear Limited, in a study of
SENS-401 in patients scheduled for cochlear implantation. A Phase 2
study of SENS-401 was also completed in Sudden Sensorineural
Hearing Loss (SSNHL) in January 2022.
