Study of the Efficacy and Safety of MK-0476 in Japanese Pediatric Participants With Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis (MK-0476-519)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of montelukast (MK-0476) in the treatment of Japanese pediatric participants with seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR). The primary hypothesis of this study is that montelukast is superior to placebo in the treatment of nasal symptoms in SAR.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change From Baseline in Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) Averaged During 3 Hours of Exposure [Baseline and after 3 hours of pollen exposure on Day 7 of each treatment period]
The TNSS is the sum of the three nasal symptom scores for nasal congestion, nasal discharge and sneezing. Participants completed a questionnaire about their nasal symptoms. Score ranged from 0 to 4 for each of the three nasal symptoms, with a total possible score ranging from 0 to 12 and a higher score indicating more severe nasal symptoms. The baseline TNSS was assessed on Day 7 of a treatment period prior to entering the chamber room. The post-baseline TNSS was assessed on Day 7 of a treatment period during 3 hours of exposure to Japanes cedar (JC) pollen in the chamber room, as an average of measurements at 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes. Analysis was done by study drug as taken.
- Percentage of Participants Who Experience at Least One Adverse Event [Up to 5 weeks]
An adverse event is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study drug, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Participants were monitored for occurrence adverse events for up to 14 days after last dose of study drug. Analysis was done by study drug as taken.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change From Baseline in Weighted TNSS Averaged During 3 Hours of Exposure [Baseline and after 3 hours of pollen exposure on Day 7 of each treatment period]
TNSS was weighted as 2:1:1 for nasal congestion, nasal discharge and sneezing. The Weighted TNSS ranged from 0 to 16, with a higher score indicating more severe weighted total nasal symptoms.
