Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | MK-1029 150 mg + Montelukast 10 mg | Participants receive single-blind MK-1029 Matching-image Placebo + open-label Montelukast 10 mg for a 2 to 4 week run-in period while discontinuing or tapering off asthma controller medications. Participants receive double-blind MK-1029 150 mg + Montelukast 10 mg for 6 weeks in the treatment period. Participants can use rescue medication during both periods as needed. | 0 | 70 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | MK-1029 Placebo + Montelukast 10 mg | Participants receive single-blind MK-1029 Matching-image Placebo + open-label Montelukast 10 mg for a 2 to 4 week run-in period while discontinuing or tapering off asthma controller medications. Participants receive double-blind MK-1029 Matching-image Placebo + Montelukast 10 mg for 6 weeks in the treatment period.
