Inclusion criteria
✓. Male or female 12 years and older.
✓. General good health, and free of any concomitant conditions or treatment that could interfere with study conduct, influence the interpretation of study observations/results, or put the patient at increased risk during the trial.
✓. A history of PAR to relevant perennial allergen for a minimum of two years immediately preceding the study.The PAR must have been of sufficient severity to have required treatment(continuous or intermittent) in the past and in the investigator's judgment, - is expected to require treatment throughout the entire study period.
✓. A demonstrated sensitivity to at least one allergen known to induce PAR through a standard prick test. A positive test is defined as a wheal diameter at least 3 mm larger than the control wheal for the prick test. Documentation of a positive result 12 months prior to screening is acceptable. Additionally, the patient is expected to be exposed to the PAR allergen that he/she has tested positive for via the skin prick test for the duration of the study.
✓. Female is of childbearing potential and is currently taking and will continue to use a medically reliable method of contraception for the entire study duration (e.g. oral, injectable, trans-cutaneous or implantable contraceptives or intrauterine devices or double-barrier protection). Women of childbearing potential, or less than 1 year postmenopausal, will require a negative serum pregnancy test at the Screening Visit (B0) as well as at last on-treatment visit (T6).
✓. Capable of understanding the requirements, risks, and benefits of study participation, and, as judged by the investigator, capable of giving informed consent and compliance with all study requirements (visits, record keeping, etc).
