Group Intervention Description BDP HFA 320 µg/day Beclomethasone dipropionate hydrofluoroalkane HFA Nasal Aerosol During the 6-week double-blind Treatment Period participants self-administered 4 actuations (two per nostril) of 80 µg BDP HFA once daily. Placebo Placebo Nasal Aerosol During the 6-week double-blind Treatment Period participants self-administered four actuations (two per nostril) of placebo HFA once daily.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change From Baseline in Average AM and PM Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) Over the Six-week Treatment Period Baseline (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
Name Time Method Change From Baseline in Average AM and PM Instantaneous Total Nasal Symptom Score (iTNSS) Over the Six-week Treatment Period Baseline (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.
