What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change From Baseline in Average AM and PM Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) Over the Two-week Treatment Period
Participants recorded the severity of their nasal symptoms (sneezing, runny nose, itchy nose and nasal congestion) over the past 12 hours twice daily (AM \& PM) using the following scale:
0=absent (no sign/symptom); 1=mild (sign/symptom present, easily tolerated); 2=moderate (awareness of sign/symptom, bothersome but tolerable); 3=severe (sign/symptoms hard to tolerate, interfere with daily activities and/or sleeping).
The total nasal symptom score (sum of the 4 symptom scores) ranges from 0 to 12 (worst symptoms). A negative change from Baseline score indicates symptom improvement.
Measured: Baseline (Day -6 to 0) and Days 1-15 (2-week Treatment Period)
Secondary outcomes (5)
Change From Baseline in Average AM and PM Instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS) Over the Two Week Treatment Period
Participants recorded the severity of their nasal symptoms (sneezing, runny nose, itchy nose and nasal congestion) over the 10 minutes prior to the assessment, twice daily (AM \& PM) using the following scale:
0=absent (no sign/symptom); 1=mild (sign/symptom present, easily tolerated); 2=moderate (awareness of symptom, bothersome but tolerable); 3=severe (symptoms hard to tolerate, interfere with daily activities and/or sleeping). The total nasal symptom score (sum of 4 symptom scores) ranges from 0 to 12 (worst symptoms). A negative change from Baseline score indicates symptom improvement.
Measured: Baseline (Day -6 to 0) and Days 1-15 (2-week Treatment Period)
Change From Baseline in Morning Instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS) Over the Two-week Treatment Period
Change from Baseline in the morning patient-reported instantaneous TNSS. Participants recorded the severity of their nasal symptoms (sneezing, runny nose, itchy nose and nasal congestion) over the past 10 minutes (prior to the assessment) in the morning on a scale from 0 (mild symptoms) to 3 (severe symptoms). The total nasal symptom score (sum of the 4 symptom scores) ranges from 0 to 12 (worst symptoms). A negative change from Baseline score indicates symptom improvement.
Measured: Baseline (Day -6 to 0) and Days 1-15 (2-week Treatment Period)
Change From Baseline in Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ)
The adult RQLQ has 28 questions in 7 domains (activities, sleep, non-nose/eye symptoms, practical problems, nasal symptoms, eye symptoms, and emotional). Participants were asked to recall their experiences during the previous week and to give their responses on a 7-point scale (0 = Least severe to 6 = Extremely severe). The overall RQLQ score is the mean of all 28 responses, and ranges from 0 to 7. A negative change from Baseline score indicates symptom improvement.
Measured: Baseline and Week 2
Change From Baseline in Morning 24-hour Reflective Ocular Symptom Score Over the Two-week Treatment Period
Participants recorded the severity of their symptoms (itching/burning eyes, tearing/watering eyes and redness of eyes) for the past 24 hours each morning using the following scale:
0=absent (no sign/symptoms); 1=mild (sign/symptom present, minimal awareness, easily tolerated); 2=moderate (awareness of sign/symptom, bothersome but tolerable); 3=severe (sign/symptom hard to tolerate, interfere with daily activities or sleeping).
The total ocular symptom score (sum of 3 symptom scores) ranges from 0 to 9 (worst symptoms). A negative change from Baseline score indicates symptom improvement.
Measured: Baseline (Day -6 to 0) and Days 1-15 (2-week Treatment Period)
Change From Baseline in Morning 24-hour Reflective Non-nasal Symptom Score Over the Two-week Treatment Period
Participants recorded the severity of their symptoms (itching/burning eyes, tearing/watering eyes, redness of eyes and itching of ears or palate) for the past 24 hours each morning using the following scale:
0=absent (no sign/symptom); 1=mild (sign/symptom present, easily tolerated); 2=moderate (awareness of sign/symptom, bothersome but tolerable); 3=severe (symptoms hard to tolerate, interfere with daily activities or sleeping).
Total non-nasal symptom score (sum of 4 symptom scores) ranges from 0 to 12 (worst symptoms). A negative change from Baseline score indicates symptom improvement.
Measured: Baseline (Day -6 to 0) and Days 1-15 (2-week Treatment Period)
