E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Subject will be eligible for inclusion only if all of following criteria apply: 1. Informed consent • Subject has provided an appropriately signed and dated informed consent. An appropriately signed and dated assent must be obtained from the parents or guardian if the subject is a child under 18 years of age. 2. Subject is treatable on an outpatient basis. 3. Age - ≥ 12 years at Visit 2 4. Male or eligible female To be eligible for entry, females of childbearing potential must commit to consistent and correct use of an acceptable method of birth control, as defined by the following: • Male partner who is sterile prior to the female subject’s entry into study and is sole sexual partner for that female subject • Implants of levonorgestrel • Injectable progestogen • Oral contraceptive (either combined estrogen/progestin or progestin only) • Any intrauterine device (IUD) with a documented failure rate of less than 1% per year, or • Females of childbearing potential who are not sexually active must commit to complete abstinence from intercourse for 2weeks before exposure to the study drug, throughout the clinical trial, and for a period after the trial to account for elimination of the drug (minimum of six days). • Double barrier method – spermacide plus a mechanical barrier (e.g., spermacide plus a male condom or a spermacide and female diaphragm). Female subjects should not be enrolled if they plan to become pregnant during the time of study participation. A serum pregnancy test will be performed at screening visit and final/early withdrawal visit. A urine pregnancy test will be performed at randomization visit (Visit 2) and Visit 4. 5. Diagnosis of VMR/IR to include ALL of the following: a Two year clinical history of VMR/IR (written or verbal confirmation) and evidence to support the perennial nature of the disorder and its potential fluctuation with weather conditions, such as, seasonal changes, abrupt changes in temperature, weather fronts, and variations in humidity, along with symptoms provoked by respiratory irritant exposure (e.g., tobacco smoke, perfumes, paint fumes). VMR/IR chronic symptoms would include rhinorrhea, nasal congestion and postnasal drip. b Subjects must have checked at least 3 of the Inhaled/Strong Odor and/or Weather/Temperature Change Triggers (making their VMR/IR symptoms worse) included on the Vasomotor/Idiopathic Rhinitis Questionnaire completed at Visit 1. c Negative skin tests (by prick method), response to seasonal allergens (including tree, grass and weed pollens) and perennial allergens (including animal dander, house dust mites, cockroach and mold) relevant to the geographical area completed at Visit 1. A negative response for allergen skin prick testing is defined as a wheal < 3 mm larger than the diluent control. d Positive response to a histamine skin test (prick method) completed at Visit 1. A positive response for histamine skin prick testing is defined as a wheal ≥ 3mm larger than the diluent control. e Normal sinus radiograph (Waters view) to rule out sinusitis (presence of mucosal thickening of ≥ 6 mm at the point of maximal thickening or an air fluid level or opacification). The sinus radiograph should be scheduled at Visit 1. f Nasal cytology negative for eosinophils (Rhino-probe smear method). The nasal cytology sample is collected at Visit 1. 6. Ability to comply with study procedures - Subject understands and is willing, able and likely to comply with study procedures and restrictions. 7. Literate |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Subject will not be eligible for inclusion if any of following criteria apply: 1. Significant concomitant medical conditions, defined as but not limited to: a Historical/current evidence of clinically significant uncontrolled disease of any body system. Significant is defined as any disease that, in the opinion of investigator, would put safety of subject at risk through study participation or which would confound the interpretation of study results if disease/condition exacerbated during study. b severe physical obstruction of the nose/nasal septal perforation that could affect deposition of double blind intranasal study drug c nasal/throat injury or surgery in last 3 mths d asthma, with exception of mild intermittent asthma. e rhinitis medicamentosa f bacterial/viral infection of upper respiratory tract within 2 wks of Visit 1 or during screening period g documented evidence of acute or significant chronic sinusitis, as determined by sinus radiograph (Waters view) done at Visit 1 h current or history of glaucoma and/or cataracts or ocular herpes simplex i physical impairment that would affect subject’s ability to participate in study j clinical evidence of Candida infection of nose or oropharynx k history of psychiatric disease, intellectual deficiency, poor motivation, substance abuse, or other conditions that will limit validity of informed consent or that would confound interpretation of study results l history of or current use of cocaine m history of adrenal insufficiency n history of shingles o Subject not eligible if has chickenpox/measles, or has been exposed during last 3 wks and is non-immune. If a subject develops chickenpox/ measles during study, they will be withdrawn. If a non-immune subject is exposed during study, their continuation will be at discretion of investigator, taking into consideration likelihood of developing active disease. 2. Use of corticosteroids, defined as: • Intranasal corticosteroid within 4 wks prior to Visit 1. • Inhaled, oral, intramuscular, intravenous, ocular, and/or dermatological corticosteroid (with exception of hydrocortisone cream/ointment, 1% or less) within 8 wks prior to Visit 1. 3. Use of other allergy medications within timeframe indicated relative to Visit 1 • Intranasal or ocular cromolyn within 14 days prior to Visit 1 • Short-acting prescription and OTC antihistamines, including ocular preparations and antihistamines contained in insomnia and ‘nighttime’ pain formulations taken for insomnia, within 3 days prior to Visit 1 • Long-acting antihistamines within 10 days prior to Visit 1: loratadine, desloratadine, fexofenadine, cetirizine • Long-acting antihistamine, astemizole, within 12 wks prior to Visit 1 • Oral or intranasal decongestants within 3 days prior to Visit 1 • Intranasal, oral, or inhaled anticholinergics within 3 days prior to Visit 1 • Oral antileukotrienes within 3 days prior to Visit 1 • Subcutaneous omalizumab within 5 mths of Visit 1 • Intranasal antihistamines within 2 wks prior to Visit 1 • Ocular antihistamines, artificial tears, eyewashes/nasal irrigation solutions, homeopathic preparations, lubricants, sympathomimetic or vasoconstrictor preparations during screening or treatment periods. No exclusion period prior to screening (Visit 1) is required for these treatments. • Throat treatments during screening and treatment periods. No exclusion period prior to screening (Visit 1) is required for these treatments. 4. Use of other medications that may affect VMR/IR or its symptoms • Chronic use of concomitant medications that would affect assessment of effectiveness of study drug • Chronic use of long-acting beta-agonists • Chronic use of other intranasally administered medications 5. Chronic use of medications which could cause drug-induced rhinitis including ACE inhibitors, reserpine, guanethidine, methyldopa, hydralazine, betablockers, alpha-adrenoceptor antagonists, phentolamine, chlorpromazine, aspirin and non- steroidal anti-inflammatory medications 6. Use of immunosuppressive medications 8 wks prior to screening and during study 7. Use of any medications that significantly inhibit the cytochrome P450 subfamily enzyme CYP3A4 8. Immunotherapy 9.

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
• Mean change from baseline over the entire treatment period in daily, reflective total nasal symptom scores (rTNSS).
The total nasal symptom score (TNSS) is the sum of the 3 individual symptom scores for rhinorrhea, nasal congestion and postnasal drip where each symptom is scored on a scale of 0 to 3. The maximum sum for TNSS is 9. The rTNSS is a rating of the severity of symptoms over the previous 12 hours and is performed in the AM (AM rTNSS) and PM (PM rTNSS). The daily reflective total nasal symptom score (rTNSS) is defined as the average of the AM rTNSS and PM rTNSS assessments. The baseline TNSS is defined as the average of the daily rTNSS over the 4 consecutive 24-hour periods prior to randomization, including the assessment the morning of randomization prior to study drug administration. |
