Montelukast Compared With Placebo and Salmeterol in Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction
Overview[ - collapse ][ - ]
Purpose | To determine the effect of an approved medication being studied in support of a new approach in the prevention of exercise-induced asthma (a worsening of asthma caused by exercise, also known as exercise-induced bronchospasm), in patients who have a history of worsening asthma after exercise. |

Current Primary Outcome Measures | Maximum Percent Fall in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) After Exercise Challenge at 2 Hours Post-dose in Patients With Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction (EIB) [Time Frame: 0-60 minutes after the exercise challenge performed 2 hours after a single oral dose] [Designated as safety issue: No]In patients with EIB, the percent change from pre-exercise baseline FEV1 to the lowest FEV1 within 60 minutes after exercise challenge (2 hours post-dose). The FEV1 measurement obtained 5 minutes before the exercise challenge was the baseline, and was specific to each exercise challenge. |
