First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for preventing and/or protecting against sensory hair cell death associated with exposure to an ototoxic agent in an individual comprising administering to the individual a therapeutically effective amount of: or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ototoxic agent is an aminoglycoside antibiotic, chemotherapeutic agent, loop diuretic, antimalarial sesquiterpene lactone endoperoxide, antimalarial quinine, salicylate, or interferon polypeptide. 3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the ototoxic agent is an aminoglycoside antibiotic. 4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the aminoglycoside antibiotic is selected from streptomycin, neomycin, framycetin, paromomycin, paromomycin sulfate, ribostamycin, kanamycin, amikacin, arbekacin, bekanamycin, dibekacin, tobramycin, spectinomycin, hygromycin B, gentamicin, netilmicin, sisomicin, isepamicin, verdamicin, and astromicin. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the aminoglycoside antibiotic is streptomycin. 6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the aminoglycoside antibiotic is neomycin. 7. The method of claim 4 , wherein the aminoglycoside antibiotic is amikacin. 8. The method of claim 2 , wherein the ototoxic agent is a chemotherapeutic agent. 9.
