Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Baseline Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) for Calculation of Change From Baseline Averaged Over 15 Days of Treatment as Assessed by Participant	TNSS was assessed by participants who scored 4 symptoms (rhinorrhea; nasal stuffiness; nasal itching; sneezing) in diaries using the scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate; and 3=severe. The composite score ranged from 0-12 where a higher value indicated greater severity. Scores were recorded twice daily, in morning (AM) and night (PM). The baseline score was an average of the three AM and three PM scores preceding treatment.	Baseline (3 days preceding treatment)
Other	Baseline Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) for Calculation of Change From Baseline at Days 4, 8, and 15 Visits as Assessed by Investigator	TNSS was assessed by the investigator who scored 4 symptoms (rhinorrhea; nasal stuffiness; nasal itching; sneezing) in diaries using the scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate; and 3=severe. The composite score ranged from 0-12 where a higher value indicated greater severity. The baseline score was taken at the baseline visit preceding treatment.	Baseline (Day 1)
Other	Baseline Overall Disease Condition Score for Calculation of Change From Baseline at Days 4, 8, and 15 Visits as Assessed by Investigator	The investigator scored the overall condition of seasonal allergic rhinitis for the participant during the study visits using the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate; and 3=severe. A higher value indicated greater severity. The baseline score was taken at the baseline visit preceding treatment.	Baseline (Day 1)
Other	Baseline Overall Disease Condition Score for Calculation of Change From Baseline at Days 4, 8, and 15 as Assessed by Participant	The participant scored the overall condition of seasonal allergic rhinitis in a diary using the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate; and 3=severe. A higher value indicated greater severity. The baseline score was recorded preceding treatment.	Baseline (Day 1)
Primary	Median Time to Onset of Nasal Symptom Relief as Assessed by Participant Diary Responses	Time to onset of relief of nasal stuffiness/congestion, rhinorrhea, nasal itching, sneezing, itching/burning eyes, tearing/watering eyes, redness of eyes, and itching of ears or palate was assessed by the participant using diary response data in the morning and night for the first 3 days of treatment. The participants were asked to rate their relief on the following scale: 1=complete, 2=marked, 3=moderate, 4=slight, and 5=none. If a participant recorded a degree of relief that was at least moderate (3 or below), they answered the question, "When did you first experience noticeable relief?" and noted the date and time. The data were analyzed using a log ranked test and with a Kaplan-Meier estimate. Any participant who did not experience at least moderate relief by the end of 72 hours was considered censored at that time in the analysis. Time to onset of relief is presented in hours.	From the start of treatment until onset of symptom relief (up to Day 4)
Secondary	Change From Baseline (CFB) in the Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) Averaged Over 15 Days of Treatment, as Assessed by Participant	CFB, averaged over study days 1-15, was calculated for TNSS assessed by participants. Participants scored 4 symptoms (rhinorrhea; nasal stuffiness; nasal itching; sneezing) in diaries using the scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate; and 3=severe. The composite score ranged from 0-12 where a higher value indicated greater severity. A decrease in symptom severity is reflected by a negative CFB.; Percent CFB was calculated as the difference between the baseline and 15-day average scores divided by baseline score multiplied by 100. Scores were recorded twice daily, in morning (AM) and night (PM). Average AM/PM scores were first calculated separately, then averaged together to compute the 15-day average score. If diary entries were missing, an average AM or PM score was not calculated. If neither average AM nor PM score was calculated, total 15-day average score was not calculated. Baseline score was an average of the three AM and three PM scores preceding treatment.	Baseline (3 days preceding treatment) through Day 15 (averaged over 15 days)
Secondary	Change From Baseline (CFB) in the Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) at Day 4 as Assessed by Investigator	CFB on study Day 4 was calculated for TNSS assessed by investigator. TNSS was a composite of the following symptoms: rhinorrhea, nasal stuffiness, nasal itching, and sneezing scores. The investigator scored each symptom during study visit on study Day 4, on the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate; and 3=severe. The composite score ranged from 0-12 where a higher value indicated greater severity. Percent CFB was calculated as the difference between the baseline and Day 4 scores divided by baseline score multiplied by 100. A negative percent CFB indicated a decrease in symptom severity and a positive percent CFB indicated a worsening of symptoms.	Baseline (Day 1) and Day 4

The investigator scored each symptom during study visit on study Day 8 on the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate; and 3=severe. The composite score ranged from 0-12 where a higher value indicated greater severity. Percent CFB was calculated as the difference between the baseline and Day 8 scores divided by baseline score multiplied by 100. A negative percent CFB indicated a decrease in symptom severity and a positive percent CFB indicated a worsening of symptoms.	Baseline (Day 1) and Day 8

The investigator scored each symptom during study visit on the following scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate; and 3=severe. The composite score ranged from 0-12 where a higher value indicated greater severity. Percent CFB was calculated as the difference between the baseline and endpoint scores divided by baseline score multiplied by 100. A negative percent CFB indicated a decrease in symptom severity and a positive percent CFB indicated a worsening of symptoms. Signs and symptoms data collected by the investigator for Day 15 were not evaluated because the data was missing from the case report forms. The final endpoint was calculated using the last valid visit for each participant.	Baseline (Day 1) and Final Endpoint (Up to Day 15).
