What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Number of patients with treatment-related adverse events (AEs) assessed as mild, moderate and severe, from baseline to day 29.	All adverse events (AEs) recorded during the study through the date of randomization up to 28 days after the last dose of study drug will analyzed. Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs), defined as any AE that starts or increases in severity after the first dose of STMC-103H or placebo, will be summarized. The total number of reported AEs will also be summarized.	From baseline to day 57
Incidence of abnormal laboratory test results from baseline to day 29	The change in laboratory results from baseline to day 29 in multi-sensitized (to two or more allergens) subjects who are otherwise healthy and who have completed BID dosing of STMC-103H or placebo for 28 days	From baseline to day 29
Change in blood pressure from baseline to day 57	Observed values of blood pressure obtained at screening and study Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 43, and 57) and corresponding changes from baseline (Day 1) will be listed and summarized by descriptive statistics by study part and visit.	From baseline to day 57
Change in respiration rate from baseline to day 57	Observed values of respiration rate obtained at screening and study Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 43, and 57) and corresponding changes from baseline (Day 1) will be listed and summarized by descriptive statistics by study part and visit.	From baseline to day 57
Change in heart rate from baseline to day 57	Observed values of heart rate obtained at screening and study Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 43, and 57) and corresponding changes from baseline (Day 1) will be listed and summarized by descriptive statistics by study part and visit.	From baseline to day 57
