- Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: From study enrollment up to Week 26 (for the 24-Week Treatment Group) and up to Week 54 (for the 52-WeekTreatment Group) ]Number of participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) whether or not related to study drug.
- Number of Participants With Non-serious Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: From first use of INP104 up to Week 26 (for the 24-Week Treatment Group) and up to Week 54 (for the 52-WeekTreatment Group) ]Number of participants with non-serious treatment emergent adverse events (AEs), whether or not related to study drug.
- Change in Nasal Mucosa [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 24 (for the 24-Week Treatment Group) and Baseline up to Week 52 (for the 52-WeekTreatment Group) ]Mean change from baseline in Quantitative Scoring Scale for Evaluation of the Nasal Mucosa (QSS-NM) score, reported at designated intervals on study. This scale was scored by otolaryngologists during routine endoscopy of the upper nasal cavity of participants. A minimum score of 0 means no issues were detected. A maximum score of 34 indicates severe issues (worse outcome).
- Change in Olfactory Function [ Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 24 (for the 24-Week Treatment Group) and Baseline up to Week 52 (for the 52-WeekTreatment Group) ]Mean change from baseline in olfactory function score, assessed using the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT), and reported at designated intervals on study. The UPSIT is a 40 question scratch and sniff test of olfactory function. The minimum score of 0 indicates worst olfactory function, and the maximum score of 40 indicates the highest level of olfactory function detectable by the test.
