Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of Adverse Events in Stage A

    Adverse events, including serious adverse events and deaths, were reported regardless of test article relationship.

    Day 1

  • Mean Change From Baseline in Nasal Congestion Over a 6-hour Period in the EEC at Day 5

    Stage B: Nasal congestion was assessed by the subject before entering the EEC and at 14 timepoints over a 6-hour period after entering the EEC. Nasal congestion was scored on a scale from 0-3, where 0=none and 3=severe. Baseline EEC was conducted up to 21 days prior to the 5-day treatment period.

    Baseline (pretreatment), Day 5

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean Change From Baseline in Total Nasal Symptom Scores (TNSS) Over a 6-hour Period in the EEC at Day 5

    Baseline (pretreatment), Day 5

Study Arms (2)

Stage B/AL-53817

EXPERIMENTAL

Stage B: AL-53817 nasal spray solution, 1 spray to each nostril twice a day for 4 days. On Day 5, 1 spray to each nostril 60 minutes before entering the EEC.

Drug: AL-53817 nasal spray solution

Stage B/Vehicle

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Stage B: Vehicle nasal spray, 1 spray to each nostril twice a day for 4 days. On Day 5, 1 spray to each nostril 60 minutes before entering the EEC.

Other: Vehicle nasal spray

Interventions

Active ingredients administered in 1 of 3 concentrations during Stage A to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and administered at maximum tolerated dose during Stage B.

Stage B/AL-53817

Inactive ingredients used as placebo comparator during Stage A and Stage B.

Stage B/Vehicle

  • Any nasal disorder that could preclude safe administration of study medication and/or interfere with the evaluation of the study medication.
  • History of HIV, hepatitis B or active hepatitis A as determined by medical history and/or by serology at the Screening Visit.
  • Any screening clinical laboratory result (hematology, serum chemistry or urinalysis) outside the normal range that is clinically relevant in the opinion of an appropriately qualified physician and/or Alcon physician.
  • Participation in any investigational study within 30 days of entry into this study or concomitantly with this study.
  • Any screening clinical laboratory result (hematology, serum chemistry or urinalysis) outside the normal range that is clinically relevant in the opinion of an appropriately qualified physician and/or Alcon physician.
  • Using any prescription or non-prescription systemic or topical medications, vitamins or dietary supplements within 14 days prior to the check-in day (except for acetaminophen at doses of \< 2 grams/day or topical, hormonal-oral, implantable or injectable contraceptives).
