Abbreviations: am, morning; BID, twice daily; EDS-FLU, exhalation delivery system with fluticasone; MOS, Medical Outcomes Study; N, total of number of patients randomized/enrolled/treated; n/N (%), number (%) of patients in the subset at the given time point; SD, standard deviation; SNOT-22, Sinonasal Outcome Test-22.

Baseline instantaneous am congestion, polyp grade, SNOT-22, MOS Sleep-R, and surgical evaluation data are from the Full Analysis Set, whereas other data are from the intention-to-treat population.
