Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective of this 5-year study is to demonstrate non-inferiority of children compared to adults by exploring long-term efficacy after treatment with TA Bäume (trees) and TA Gräser (grass) following a perennial posology.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- change in the combined symptom medication score (CSMS) [once a year for 5 years]
The primary endpoint is the change in the total combined symptom medication score (CSMS) during the entire study period, determined from the rhinoconjunctivitis daily symptom score (dSS) and rhinoconjunctivitis daily medication score (dMS), averaged over the respective peak pollen season
Secondary Outcome Measures
- rhinoconjunctivitis daily medication score [once a year for 5 years]
the changes in use of daily anti-allergic medication needed, averaged over the respective peak pollen season
- rhinoconjunctivitis daily symptom score [once a year for 5 years]
allergic symptoms and severity will be self-recorded by the subject in an eDiary on a daily basis during the pollen season, averaged over the respective peak pollen season
- Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life [twice a year for 5 years]
The change in quality of life as assessed by the standardised Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ(s))
- Rhinitis Control [twice a year for 5 years]
change in symptom control of rhinitis assessed by Rhinitis Control Assessment Test (RCAT)
- Asthma Control [twice a year for 5 years]
The change of asthma control in asthmatic patients assessed by the (Childhood) Asthma Control Test (C-ACT/ACT)
- Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (safety and tolerability) [all year for 3 years]
frequency and severity of Treatment-Emergent adverse events
- treatment satisfaction [once after 3 years and once after 5 years]
directly assessed by the physician (questionnaire)
