Primary outcomes

  1. Late Allergic Response (LAR) by Assessment of Minimum Percentage of FEV1 3-7 Hours Post Allergen Challenge Compared to Pre Allergen Challenge FEV1

    Time frame: From Randomization to end of treatment

    LAR was assessed on Day 6 as minimum percentage of FEV1 over 3 to 7 hours based on the analysis of the minimum percentage of FEV1 remaining over 3 to 7 hours post allergen challenge (post AC) compared to pre allergen challenge (pre AC) FEV1

Secondary outcomes

  1. Early Allergic Response (EAR) by Assessment of Minimum Percentage of FEV1 0-3 h Post Allergen Challenge

    Time frame: From Randomization to end of treatment

    Minimum Percentage of FEV1 over 0 to 3 hours post allergen challenge compared to pre allergen challenge FEV1

  2. Area Under the Curve (AUC) for FEV1 Over 0-3 and 3-7 h Post Allergen Challenge

    Time frame: From Randomization to end of treatment

    AUC was assessed as average percentage of FEV1 remaining 0 to 3 hours and 3 to 7 hours post allergen challenge compared to pre allergen challenge FEV1

  3. Airway Hyperresponsiveness by Assessment of Methacholine PC20

    Time frame: Day 1 (pre-dose)

    The methacholine challenge was performed on Day 1 (pre dose), Day 5 ([post dose] pre AC), and Day 7 ([post dose] 24 hours post AC)

  4. Airway Hyperresponsiveness by Assessment of Methacholine PC20

    Time frame: Day 5 ([post-dose] pre allergen challenge)

    The methacholine challenge was performed on Day 1 (pre dose), Day 5 ([post dose] pre AC), and Day 7 ([post dose] 24 hours post AC)

  5. Airway Hyperresponsiveness by Assessment of Methacholine PC20

    Time frame: Day 7 ([post-dose] 24 hours post allergen challenge)

    The methacholine challenge was performed on Day 1 (pre dose), Day 5 ([post dose] pre AC), and Day 7 ([post dose] 24 hours post AC)

  6. Changes in Sputum Eosinophils Differentials (Percentage)

    Time frame: Day 5 (post dose)

    The change form baseline in percentage of sputum eosinophils was assessed on Day 5 (post dose) ,Day 6 ([post dose] 7 hours post allergen challenge) and Day 7 ([post dose] 24 hours post allergen challenge)

  7. Changes in Sputum Eosinophils Differentials (Percentage)

    Time frame: Day 6 ([post dose] 7 hours post allergen challenge)

    The change form baseline in percentage of sputum eosinophils was assessed on Day 5 (post dose) ,Day 6 ([post dose] 7 hours post allergen challenge) and Day 7 ([post dose] 24 hours post allergen challenge)

  8. Changes in Sputum Eosinophils Differentials (Percentage)

    Time frame: Day 7 ([post dose] 24 hours post allergen challenge)

    The change form baseline in percentage of sputum eosinophils was assessed on Day 5 (post dose) ,Day 6 ([post dose] 7 hours post allergen challenge) and Day 7 ([post dose] 24 hours post allergen challenge)
