This study will be a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, 3-way cross over design in allergic rhinitis subjects. Subjects will receive repeat doses of intra-nasal levocabastine for 7 days in each period and the duration of the study will be about 13 weeks. An Environmental Exposure Chamber (EEC) will be used in this study. The primary objective of the study is to investigate the non-inferiority effect of 7 days treatment with levocabastine on nasal symptoms elicited by an EEC when administered once daily (QD) compared with twice daily (BID). Also study will be conducted to investigate the superiority of effect of 7 days treatment with levocabastine (QD and BID) on nasal symptoms elicited by an EEC in subjects compared to placebo.

Exclusion criteria
Subjects who are using some of the medications below on an as needed basis, may participate in the study if they remain free of medication for the following periods of time prior to screening and prior to dosing (study drugs): Nasal antihistamines: 72 hours, Oral antihistamines A (cetirizine, fexofenadine, loratadine, desloratadine): 72 hours, Oral antihistamines B (all others): 72hours, Eye and Nasal Levocasbastine: 7 days, Nasal decongestants: 24 hours, Oral decongestants: 24 hours, Nasal glucocorticosteroids: 7 days, Inhaled glucocorticoids: 1 week, Oral glucocorticosteroids: 12 weeks, Oral leukotriene receptor antagonists: 7 days, Oral 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors: 7 days, Oral methylxanthines: 7 days
Intranasal aqueous 50 mcg microsuspension of levocabastine supplied in an amber glass bottle fitted with a white top actuated plastic metering atomising spray pump filled with a uniform white suspension

Time frame: Day 8 of each treatment period (up to 13 Weeks)
The TNSS (score of 0-12) is defined as the sum of the symptom scores for the four individual components (nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, nasal itch, and sneezing, each scored on 0-3 scale [0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe]). TNSS was measured at the pre-allergen chamber challenge, and then every 15 minutes from 0 to 4 hours post start of the allergen chamber challenge. In the Environmental Exposure Chamber (EEC), aerosolized allergen was administered in a sealed chamber to evaluate the efficacy of antihistamines/other treatments. Weighted mean TNSS was calculated by dividing the value of the area under the response time curve over the 0-4 hours (calculated by trapezoidal rule) by the time interval of available data.
Time frame: Day 8 of each treatment period (up to 13 Weeks)
TNSS contains symtom scores for the four individual components (nasal congestion [NACG], rhinorrhea [RHSCR], nasal itching [NAITS] and sneezing [SNZS]), each scored on a 0 - 3 scale [0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe]). TNSS was measured at the pre-allergen chamber challenge, and then every 15 minutes from 0 to 4 hours post start of the allergen chamber challenge. In the Environmental Exposure Chamber (EEC), aerosolized allergen is administered in a sealed chamber to evaluate the efficacy of antihistamines/other treatments. The participants recorded their symptom scores on an e-diary. The mean score for each participant was calculated using the available diary data from the assessment periods, taking the average of non-missing data during the period. Weighted mean of the individual symptoms of theTNSS were calculated by dividing the value of the area under the response time curve over the 0-4 hours (calculated by trapezoidal rule) by the time interval of available data.
