  • 2. A history of seasonal grass pollen-induced asthma requiring regular treatment with salbutamol or inhaled corticosteroids. Patients with mild seasonal grass pollen-induced asthma may be included, provided symptoms are satisfactorily controlled with occasional salbutamol only.
  • 3. A clinical history of symptomatic seasonal allergic rhinitis and/or asthma due to tree pollen or weed pollen near or overlapping the grass pollen season.
  • 4. A clinical history of symptomatic allergic rhinitis and/or asthma caused by a perennial allergen to which the participant is regularly exposed.

  • 13. Ongoing systemic immunosuppressive treatment
  • 14. History of intolerance of grass pollen immunotherapy, rescue medications or their excipients
  • 15. For females of childbearing age a positive serum or urine pregnancy test with sensitivity of less than 50 mIU/mL within 72 hours of first administration of study therapy
  • 16. Lactating females
  • 17. The use of any investigational drug within 30 days of the screening visit
  • 18. Ongoing treatment with beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, tricyclic antidepressants, monoamine oxidase inhibitors or anti-IgE monoclonal antibody
