Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in the Cumulative Lower Respiratory Symptom Score Averaged Over Days 1-4Days 1 through 4

The cumulative lower respiratory symptom score consisted of the summary of individual scores assessing cough, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, and wheezing based on the following scale: 0 (not present); 1=mild, clearly present; 2=moderately severe, uncomfortable; 3=severe (best possible score of 12; worst possible score of 0), interfering with sleep or activity. Due to the small sample size, efficacy measures were not analyzed.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in the Morning Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) Averaged Over Days 1-4Days 1 through 4

PEF measurements were collected via a study-issued electronic peak flow meter. Due to the small sample size, efficacy measures were not analyzed.

Change From Baseline in the Morning Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) Averaged Over Days 1-4Days 1 through 4

FEV1 measurements were collected via a study-issued spirometer. Due to the small sample size, efficacy measures were not analyzed.

Change From Baseline in Exhaled Nitric Oxide (eNO) Averaged Over Days 1-4Days 1 through 4

eNO was measured using a study-issued monitor. Due to the small sample size, efficacy measures were not analyzed.
