Experimental: OTO-201
6 mg OTO-201 administered trans-tympanostomy tube

Drug: OTO-201 |
- Otoscopic Examination: Auricle and Meatus [ Time Frame: Up to 1 month ]Number of ears whose external ear and ear canal (auricle and meatus), when examined through an otoscope, appeared normal at Baseline and appeared abnormal at Day 29
- Otoscopic Examination: Tympanic Membrane [ Time Frame: up to 1 month ]Number of ears whose ear drum (tympanic membrane), when examined through an otoscope, appeared normal at Baseline and appeared abnormal at Day 29
- Otoscopic Examination: Tube Patency [ Time Frame: Up to 1 month ]Subjects with at least one ear tube patent (i.e., not blocked) at Day 29
- Feasibility of Administration [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]Ease of administering OTO-201 through the tympanostomy tube: Number of subjects that investigators rated ease of administration as either "easy" or "very easy"
