FDA Approves First Gene Therapy to Restore Hearing for People Born Deaf

The FDA approved the first gene therapy to restore hearing for people born deaf, developed by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals. The treatment targets a rare genetic defect affecting about 50 U.S. children annually, caused by a defective OTOF gene. In clinical trials, 80% of patients achieved significant hearing restoration and 42% gained normal hearing, with effects lasting at least two years.

Experimental Gene Therapy Restores Hearing in 90% of Patients With Rare Genetic Deafness

Researchers at Mass Eye and Ear reported that an experimental gene therapy restored hearing in about 90% of 42 patients born with DFNB9, a rare genetic deafness caused by OTOF gene mutations. The treatment uses an adenovirus to deliver a healthy gene to the inner ear, with results lasting more than two years in some patients. A Regeneron-developed treatment could become the first FDA-approved gene therapy for deafness.
