- Forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1) > 70% of the predicted normal value demonstrable at least 6 hours after last short acting β-2 agonist use or 12 hours after last long acting β-2 agonist (LABA) use;
- Nasal Symptoms Score (NSS) at baseline ≥ 3. Baseline NSS will be defined as the mean of the 6 last assessments of the patients' diary (3 last days before randomization);

- Patients who agree to maintain consistency in their surroundings throughout the study period;
- Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) including peri-menopausal women who have had a menstrual period within 1 year have to have a negative pregnancy test. Results have to be available until the Visit 2 and negative for the patient to be entered in the study.
WOCBP have to use an effective method of birth control throughout the study period and for 4 weeks after study completion (defined as a method which results in a failure rate of less than 1% per year) such as:
- combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal, transdermal)
- progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable, implantable)
- intrauterine device (IUD)
- intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS)
- bilateral tubal occlusion
- vasectomised partner (provided that partner is the sole sexual partner of the trial participant and that the vasectomised partner has received medical assessment of the surgical success)
- sexual abstinence In each case of delayed menstrual period (over one month between menstruations) confirmation of absence of pregnancy is strongly recommended. This recommendation also applies to WOCBP with infrequent or irregular menstrual cycles.

- Upper respiratory infections including cold and systemic infections within 3 weeks of Visit 2;
- Patients with moderate to severe renal impairment and taking P-gp inhibitors (e.g. ketoconazole, erythromycin, cyclosporine, ritonavir, diltiazem) within 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication;
- Patients requiring daily "controller" medications with cromolyn-type drugs or leukotriene antagonists;
- Patient required daily "controller" medication with Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) or LABA at medium /high dosage defined by GINA criteria;
- Patients with clinically important (based on principal investigator's judgment) hepatic impairment;
- Patients with severe concomitant disease (based on principal investigator's judgment) that could interfere with treatment response;
- Patients with QT syndrome;
- Patients with Galactose intolerance, Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose- galactose malabsorption;
- Pregnant or breast-feeding women;
- Patients with a mental condition rendering the subject unable to understand the nature, scope and possible consequences of the study (based on principal investigator's judgment);
- Patients who had a recent history (within previous 12 months) of drug addiction or alcohol abuse based on Principal investigator's judgment ;
- Patients participating in or having participated in another clinical trial within the previous three months;
- Patients unable to take relief medications due to contraindications or intolerance;
Patients who are taking or have taken any of the following medications prior to randomisation in the study and have not complied with the specified washout period:
- Antihistaminic drugs or montelukast (7 days)
- Systemic or intranasal corticosteroids (4 weeks)
- Delayed-release corticosteroids (3 months)
- Ketotifen (2 weeks)
- Macrolides antibiotics and imidazolic antifungals (systemic)(7 days)
- Anticholinergics (7 days)
- Drugs with antihistamine properties (phenothiazine) (7 days)
- Intranasal and systemic decongestants (3 days)
- Lodoxamide (7 days)
- Patients who will be operating heavy machinery or need to drive motor vehicles as an essential part of their profession.
- Patients who are planning to travel outside the study area during the course of the study.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change From Baseline With Montelukast+Bilastine Compared With Bilastine Monotherapy in SARC Symptoms
Time Frame: 4 weeks of treatment (from baseline to 4 weeks of treatment)
|
To demonstrate that concomitant administration of montelukast and bilastine is superior to bilastine monotherapy in SARC symptoms, as assessed by Total Symptoms Scores (TSS) after 4 weeks of treatment. Total Symptoms Scores (TSS) assesses nasal (nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, nasal itching, sneezing) and non nasal symptoms (ocular redness, ocular itching, tearing) of rhinoconjuctivits. Each of the 7 symptoms is scored from 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) as follows:
TSS assessment comprises of scoring (0-3) of all 7 above mentioned symptoms. Final TSS scores is in a range from 0-21. |
4 weeks of treatment (from baseline to 4 weeks of treatment)

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change From Baseline With Montelukast+Bilastine Compared With Montelukast and Bilastine Monotherapies in Asthma Control
Time Frame: After 4 weeks of treatments
|
To evaluate the efficacy of concomitant montelukast and bilastine compared with montelukast and bilastine monotherapies in asthma control, as assessed by Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) after 4 weeks. The AQLQ was developed to measure the functional problems (physical, emotional, social and occupational) that are most troublesome to adults (17-70 years) with asthma. Each of the 32 questionnaire's items will be scored on a 7-point scale (where 7 means "not impaired at all" and 1 means "severely impaired"). The overall AQLQ score is the mean of all 32 responses (https://www.qoltech.co.uk/aqlq.html). The change in AQLQ score from baseline to 4 weeks after treatment - AQLQ score at baseline for patients with both available values has been the secondary endpoint. |
After 4 weeks of treatments
|
Change From Baseline With Montelukast+Bilastine Compared With Montelukast and Bilastine Monotherapies in SARC Symptoms (DNSS)
Time Frame: After 4 weeks of treatment (from baseline)
|
To evaluate the efficacy of concomitant montelukast and bilastine compared with montelukast and bilastine monotherapies in daytime symptoms of SARC, as assessed by Daytime Nasal Symptom Score (DNSS) after 4 weeks of treatment. Daytime Nasal Symptom Score (DNSS) is the average of individual scores of nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, nasal itching, sneezing of rhinoconjuctivits. Each of the 4 symptoms is scored from 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) as follows:
DNSS assessment comprises of scoring (0-3) of all 4 above mentioned symptoms. Final DNSS scores is in a range from 0-12. |
After 4 weeks of treatment (from baseline)
|
Change From Baseline With Montelukast + Bilastine Compared With Montelukast and Bilastine Monotherapies in SARC Symptoms (DNNSS)
Time Frame: After 4 weeks of treatment (from baseline)
|
To evaluate the efficacy of concomitant montelukast and bilastine compared with montelukast and bilastine monotherapies in daytime symptoms of SARC, as assessed by Daytime Non Nasal Symptom Score (DNNSS) after 4 weeks of treatment. Daytime Non Nasal Symptom Score (DNSS) is the average of individual scores of ocular redness, ocular itching and tearing of rhinoconjuctivits. Each of the 3 symptoms is scored from 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) as follows:
DNNSS assessment comprises of scoring (0-3) of all 3 above mentioned symptoms. Final DNNSS scores is in a range from 0-9. |
