Study to Examine the Cytokine Levels, Gene Expression and Safety of a Single Nasal Dose of JNJ-43260295, in Healthy Participants, and Atopic Participants With Mild to Mild-Persistent Asthma

This study consists of 2 parts. In first part, healthy adult participants will receive a
single nasal dose of JNJ-43260295 or placebo in a double blind (both the participant and
investigator do not know whether participant is assigned to receive study medication or
placebo), randomized (study medication or placebo assigned to participants by chance), and
placebo-controlled (study in which the experimental treatment or procedure is compared to a
placebo) setting. In second part, which will be open label (participants and investigators
are aware about the treatment, participants are receiving), atopic participants with mild to
mild-persistent asthma will participate in 3 consecutive treatment periods (Period 1, 2, and
3). In Period 1, each participant will receive a single nasal dose of JNJ-43260295 without
prior nasal allergen challenge. In Period 2, each participant will receive a single nasal
dose of JNJ-43260295, preceded by a nasal allergen challenge approximately 15 hours prior to
the JNJ-43260295 dosing. In Period 3, each participant will receive single nasal allergen
challenge without JNJ-43260295. There will be a washout period of at least 21 days between 3
consecutive treatment periods. Cytokine levels in nasal lavage and gene expression in nasal
scraping will be primarily evaluated during all treatment periods. Participants' safety will
be monitored throughout the study.

Inclusion Criteria:

A. Healthy Participants and Atopic Mild to Mild-Persistent Asthmatic Participants:

- Participants must be non-smokers or non-regular smokers (1 to 2 cigarettes on the
weekend as part of social gathering) for at least 3 months prior to Screening,
according to the participant's self-reported medical history. Participants should be
willing to (continue to) abstain from smoking from Screening until completion of the
last study related activity

- Participants must have a body mass index (BMI: weight in kilogram [kg] divided by the
height in square meter [m^2]) of 18.0 to 30.0 kg/m^2, extremes included

- Participants must have a normal 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) at Screening
including normal sinus rhythm (heart rate between 40 and 100 beats per minute [bpm]);
QT interval corrected for heart rate according to Fridericia (QTcF) interval less
than and equal to (<=) 450 milliseconds (ms); QRS interval lower than 120 ms; and PR
interval <=220 ms

- Participants must be healthy, with the exception of findings related to asthma and
allergy in atopic mild to mild-Persistent asthmatic participants, on the basis of a
medical evaluation that reveals the absence of any clinically relevant abnormality
and includes a physical examination, medical history, vital signs (Systolic Blood
Pressure [BP], Diastolic BP, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature), and
the results of blood biochemistry and hematology tests performed at Screening

- Participants must be willing/ able to adhere to the prohibitions and restrictions
specified in the protocol and study procedures

B. Atopic Mild to Mild-Persistent Asthmatic Participants:

- Participants with Investigator-diagnosed mild to mild-persistent asthma based on the
Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Asthma

- Participants having a well-established allergen profile (participants have been
previously skin tested and, by history, have allergic responses to specific
allergens)

- Participants with forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) greater than (>) 70
percent (%) of predicted at Baseline

Exclusion Criteria:

A. Healthy Participants and Atopic Mild to Mild-Persistent Asthmatic Participants:

- Participants having a significant (by the assessment of the Investigator) nasal
abnormality and/or has a history of nasal or sinus surgery within 12 months of
enrollment

- Participants having an upper or lower respiratory tract infection within 4 weeks of
enrollment

- Participants with a history or evidence of use of alcohol, barbiturates,
amphetamines, recreational or narcotic drug use within the past 1 year, which in the
Investigator's opinion would compromise participant's safety and/or compliance with
the study procedures

- Participants with a known history of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) or
HIV-2 infection, or with a known history of hepatitis A, B, or C virus infection at
study Screening

- Female participants who are breastfeeding at Screening or having a positive urine
pregnancy test at Screening

B. Atopic Mild to Mild-Persistent Asthmatic Participants:

- Hospitalization or treatment in an emergency care facility for asthma during the last
3 years

- Participants using nasal corticosteroids on a daily basis in the 4 weeks prior to
enrollment

- Participants who have received allergen immunotherapy in the last 2 years
