Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Significant pulmonary disease other than allergic rhinitis (or mild intermittent asthma managed by SABA alone) or other medical conditions* that may, in the opinion of the investigator result in the any of the following: a) put the patient at risk because of participation in the study, b) influence the results of the study (as determined by medical history, examination and clinical investigations at screening), c) cause concern regarding the patient’s ability to participate in the study. *e.g. cardiac, gastro-intestinal, hepatic, renal, metabolic, dermatologic, neurological, haematological, oncological and psychiatric. Patients with malignancy for which the patient has undergone resection, radiation or chemotherapy within past 5 years. Patients with treated basal cell carcinoma or fully cured squamous cell carcinoma are allowed. - Any other nasal and sinusoidal diseases or conditions by discretion of the investigator (i.e. nasal polyps, frequent nose bleeding) which may influence the study results - Respiratory tract infection or asthma exacerbation in the 4 weeks prior to Visit 1 or during the screening and baseline period. - Thoracotomy with pulmonary resection. - Previous participation in this study (receipt of randomized treatment) or active participation in a current interventional study. - Patients with a clinically relevant abnormal baseline haematology, blood chemistry, or urinalysis at screening, if the abnormality defines a significant disease as defined in exclusion criterion No. 1. Patients will not be randomised if they have an AST or ALT greater than two fold the upper limit of normal at screening. Laboratory testing may be repeated once before randomization. - Significant alcohol or drug abuse within past 2 years - Patients with known hypersensitivity to any component of the investigational treatment or to fluticasone propionate nasal spray or montelukast or salbutamol MDI or components.

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of BI 671800 ED using three dose levels of BI 671800 ED (50 mg, 200 mg and 400 mg) administered bid, compared to fluticasone propionate (2 nasal actuations per nostril of 50 µg each) qd in the morning or montelukast (10 mg) qd in the morning given for 2 weeks in patients with SAR out of season using an ECC in patients known to be sensitive to the aero-allergen Dactylis glomerata;Secondary Objective: Population PK and biomarker assessments;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy variable will be the Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) as AUC of values obtained every 20 minutes over the entire period from 0-6h in the ECC
