This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an enhanced strategy of allergen-specific immunotherapy (ITIT) in the treatment of allergic rhinitis. By recording the changes in CSMS from baseline to post-treatment in the subjects and the incidence of adverse reactions after treatment, the differences in efficacy and safety between the patients who received the basic three doses and those who received booster injections were compared. Furthermore, the impact of different booster strategies on long-term efficacy was compared to optimize the injection strategy. At the same time, the influence of different administration procedures on the immune response was evaluated.

| experimental group | Experimental | Inject mite allergen solution into the tonsil at the 0th, 1st, 2nd, 6th, 12th, 18th and 24th months. |
|
| control group | Placebo Comparator | Inject the mite allergen solution into the tonsil at months 0, 1, 2, 12, and 24, and administer the placebo at months 6 and 18. |

| Basic Intratonsillar Immunotherapy (ITIT) | Procedure | During injection, the operator needs to gently shake the injection bottle about 20 times, the drug must be mixed to ensure the consistency of allergen concentration, and carefully check the patient's name and concentration on the bottle. Allergy extracts should not be injected intravenously, so the syringe will be aspirated to avoid inadvertent intravascular injection. Before each injection, after inserting the needle into the selected tonsil, before injecting the dose, the investigator will slightly pull the plunger of the syringe. If blood returns from the syringe, the syringe, and its contents will be discarded. The other tonsil will be selected and a new syringe will be prepared. Inject the mite allergen solution into the tonsil at months 0, 1, 2, 12, and 24, and administer the placebo at months 6 and 18. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| CSMS | combined symptom and medication score | Before treatment (baseline) and at 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after treatment. |
| adverse event | Observe adverse events and classify them according to the World Allergy Organization (WAO) subcutaneous immunotherapy reaction classification system. | 30 minutes after each treatment (at the 0th, 1st, 2nd, 6th, 12th, 18th and 24th months). |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Analog Scale (VAS) | Pain perception of allergy symptoms during treatment will be evaluated using a scale ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates maximum pain. | Before treatment (baseline) and at 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after treatment. |
| Absolute Value and Percentage of Blood Leukocytes |
