Measure Type Secondary
Measure Title Participant Preference of Fluticasone Furoate Nasal Spray (FFNS) Versus Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray (FPNS) Based on Ease of Use
Measure Description Participants assessed preference over ease of use for the nasal sprays used during the treatment periods by answering "I prefer product 1" for spray used during Treatment Period 1 or "I prefer product 2" for spray used during Treatment Period 2. Participant could also choose "I have no preference."
Time Frame End of Crossover Period (Day 22)  
Safety Issue No  

Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
Intent-to-Treat (ITT) population. These measures are from the product preference questionnaire given at the end of the study. Because questionnaires were comparative in nature, only subjects who completed both treatment periods were included in the analyses. In addition, there are small variations due to non-response for individual questions.
