Clinical Trial Summary

This study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of montelukast (MK-0476) in the treatment of Japanese pediatric participants with perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR). The primary hypothesis of this study is that montelukast oral granules (OG) and chewable tablets (CT) provide appropriate exposure to montelukast in Japanese pediatric participants with PAR.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Percentage of Participants Who Experience at Least One Adverse Event (AE)	An AE is any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom or disease temporally associated with the use of study drug or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the study drug or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening of a pre-existing condition that is temporally associated with the use of study drug is also an AE. Participants were monitored for the occurrence of AEs for up to 14 days after last dose of study drug (up to a total of 14 weeks). AEs were reported based on the dose of study drug participants received.	Up to 14 days after last dose of study drug (Up to 14 weeks)
Primary	Percentage of Participants Who Discontinue Study Drug Due to an AE	An AE is any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom or disease temporally associated with the use of study drug or protocol-specified procedure, whether or not considered related to the study drug or protocol-specified procedure. Any worsening of a pre-existing condition that is temporally associated with the use of study drug is also an AE. Discontinuations due to an AE were reported based on the dose of study drug participants received.	Up to 12 weeks
Primary	Area Under the Time-Concentration Curve (AUC 0-8) of Montelukast CT and Montelukast OG	Blood samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) assessments were collected at either 1 hour (h) or 3 h post-dose on Day 1 and at either 14 h or 22 h post-dose on Day 28.	Up to Day 28 after first dose of study drug
Primary	Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Montelukast CT and Montelukast OG	Blood samples for PK assessments were collected at either 1 h or 3 h post-dose on Day 1 and at either 14 h or 22 h post-dose on Day 28.	Up to Day 28 after first dose of study drug
Primary	Time to Cmax (Tmax) of Montelukast CT and Montelukast OG	Blood samples for PK assessments were collected at either 1 h or 3 h post-dose on Day 1 and at either 14 h or 22 h post-dose on Day 28.	Up to Day 28 after first dose of study drug
Primary	Apparent Elimination Half-life (t1/2) of Montelukast CT and Montelukast OG	Blood samples for PK assessments were collected at either 1 h or 3 h post-dose on Day 1 and at either 14 h or 22 h post-dose on Day 28.	Up to Day 28 after first dose of study drug
