Kevin,

there are several clinical trials going on to to mitigate the ototoxicity of cisplatin DURING treatment. If I recall there was someone here who said they were about to be treated for tinnitus AFTER the chemo regimen. I think that was a steroid injection? Did we ever hear anything back about the outcome?
