It is from July last year. There seems to be no more update after that in this Science daily article.

Holy moley. Let's hope this leads to treatments for Tinnitus.

It works on people with e specific birth gene defect named OTOH. So likely not helping with tinnitus.

Not directly, no, but here's hoping that it leads to something in the adjacent field of Tinnitus.
