Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
Subjects were seen at the Nasal Physiology Laboratory at the University of Chicago.

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Those having residual symptoms (total nasal symptom score of 4+) after the open-label phase were randomized to montelukast or placebo for another two weeks in addition to fluticasone propionate. Of the 102 subjects in open-label phase, 54 with residual symptoms were randomized and are listed as "completed" in open-label period of participant flow.
