GroupInterventionDescription
BDP HFA 320 µg/dayBeclomethasone dipropionate hydrofluoroalkane HFA Nasal AerosolDuring the 6-week double-blind Treatment Period participants self-administered 4 actuations (two per nostril) of 80 µg BDP HFA once daily.
PlaceboPlacebo Nasal AerosolDuring the 6-week double-blind Treatment Period participants self-administered four actuations (two per nostril) of placebo HFA once daily.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Average AM and PM Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) Over the Six-week Treatment PeriodBaseline (Days -3 to 0) and Days 1-43 (6-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, awareness, 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 4 symptom scores) ranges from 0 to 12 (worst symptoms). A negative change from Baseline score indicates symptom improvement.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Average AM and PM Instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS) Over the Six-week Treatment PeriodBaseline (Days -3 to 0) and Days 1-43 (6-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 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 symptoms, bothersome but tolerable); 3=severe (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.

Change From Baseline in Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ)Baseline and Week 6

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 improvement.
