Has the subject given informed consent according to local requirements before any trial-related activities?
Is the subject a legally competent male or female outpatient?
Is the subject aged 12 - 65 year?
Does the subject suffer from IgE-mediated seasonal allergic rhinoconjunctivitis with or without asthma (controlled, acc. to GINA 2006) caused by grass pollen documented by
Has the subject been treated with anti-allergic medications for at least 2 years prior to enrolment? (Subjects with perennial and continuously treated asthma have to be excluded, see "exclusion criteria" below.)
For female patients: Does the subject use effective contraception and does she have a negative pregnancy test result?

No pharmacological interactions are known for hormonal contraceptives and specific immunotherapeutic preparations.)
Does the subject suffer from rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms documented in the subjects diary during the baseline season?
