aPopulation sizes analysed: placebo, n = 45; FF, n = 49; FF/VI, n = 46. Efficacy endpoints were analysed using a mixed-effects analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model, with fixed effects of treatment, period, subject-level baseline, period-level baseline, country, sex and age and subject fitted as a random effect.

CI = confidence interval; FEV1 = forced expiratory volume in 1 s; FF = fluticasone furoate; L = litres; VI = vilanterol; wm = weighted mean.
