E. General Information on the Trial
E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation
E.1.1Medical condition(s) being investigated
seasonal allergic rhinitis
MedDRA Classification
E.1.3Condition being studied is a rare disease No
E.2 Objective of the trial
E.2.1Main objective of the trial
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ME3301 vs placebo in subjects with seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) exposed to allergen for 6 hours in the Vienna Challenge Chamber (VCC), commencing 30 minutes after dosing on day 8.
E.2.2Secondary objectives of the trial
To evaluate the dose relationship for ME3301 in the Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS-1)
Evaluate the efficacy of ME3301 vs. placebo on the TNSS-2, TNSS-3, total non-nasal symptom score (TNNSS) and total symptom score (TSS) in subjects with seasonal allergic rhinitis exposed to allergen for 6 hours in the VCC (Definitions are provided in the protocol.)
Evaluate the efficacy of ME3301 vs. placebo on nasal flow and nasal secretion in subjects with seasonal allergic rhinitis exposed to allergen for 6 hours in the VCC.
Evaluate the efficacy of ME3301 vs. placebo on nasal symptoms (sneezing, rhinorrhoea, nasal congestion and nasal itching), and other symptoms (eye tearing, eye itching, eye redness, itching of ears and/or palate) in subjects with seasonal allergic rhinitis exposed to allergen for 6 hours in the VCC.
Assess nasal congestion by the visual examination of digital nasal endoscopic images
Assess the safety and tolerability of ME3301 under repeat-dose conditions

Have currently, or have had in the 4 weeks preceding the Screening Visit, an upper respiratory infection, sinusitis, infectious rhinitis (with symptoms such as sore throat, fever, thick purulent rhinorrhoea), or ocular infection.
Have a history of nasal obstruction attributable to structural causes (e.g., nasal polyps, septal deviation, cleft palate, nasal surgery or other otorhinolaryngologic deformities).
Have symptoms of a clinically relevant illness, in the Investigator’s opinion, within 6 weeks prior to Screening Visit.
