Change From Baseline in Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) During 2 Weeks of Therapy |
The TNSS was used to evaluate participant nasal symptoms of: sneezing (daily frequency of attacks scored from 0 [<1 time or "none"] to 4 [=21 times]), rhinorrhea (daily frequency of blowing nose scored from 0 [<1 time or "none"] to 4 [=21 times]), nasal congestion (scored from 0 [no nasal blockage] to 4 [completely obstructed all day]), and nasal itching (scored from 0 [none] to 4 [nose is itchy, requiring frequent rubbing or blowing nose) as rated in the participant's diary. The TNSS was the sum of the 4 nasal symptom sub-scores. TNSS scores ranged from 0 to 16, with a higher score indicating more frequent/severe nasal symptoms. Baseline (BL) measurement was an average of scores for 3 days prior to treatment (during Confirmation of Symptom Period). Post-BL measurement was an average from Day 1 to Day 13 (2 week average). Change from BL = Post BL measurement - BL measurement. |

Number of Participants Who Experience at Least One Adverse Event (AE) |
An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition that was temporally associated with the use of the Sponsor's product, was also an AE. |
Up to 4 weeks (Up to 2 weeks after last dose of study drug) |

Percentage of Participants With Impression Assessments of "Better" or "Much Better" as Assessed by the Investigator at Week 2 |
The investigator assessed the participant's symptoms of allergic rhinitis and nasal findings at the end of the study (2 week visit or discontinuation visit) compared with those at the start of the study period (based on their recollection/memory of the participant's symptoms, no formal baseline assessment) and evaluated their impression of study drug on effect according to 6 grades: Much better, Better, Slightly better, Unchanged, Worse, or Unevaluable. The evaluation result and reason for judgment (if needed) was recorded in the participant's case report form. The investigator's impression was evaluated based on the symptoms for allergic rhinitis, nasal findings and participant's own impression at Week 2. The percentage of participants with assessments of "Better" and "Much better" graded by the investigator (Investigator's Impression Rate) was reported and analyzed using Odds Ratio analysis. |
