  • Have been treated within the last 4 weeks with intranasal steroids
  • Have used any investigational drug in the last 30 days
  • Have a hypersensitivity to corticosteroids or are allergic to aspirin
  • Have an ongoing upper respiratory tract infection or had an upper respiratory tract infection within two weeks
  • Have a nasal septal deviation needing corrective surgery

  • Have asthma that required in-patient hospitalization for asthma control within six months, required ventilator support for respiratory failure secondary to their asthma within the last five years, required admission to the hospital for management of airway obstruction on two or more occasions within the past year, or required use of more than 14 days of systemic steroid use in previous six months

Treatment and study plan

Mometasone Furoate Nasal Spray (MFNS)

Drug

MFNS, 200 mcg BID administered as two 50 mcg sprays in each nostril BID for up to 16 weeks

Placebo for MFNS

Drug

Two sprays in each nostril BID for up to 16 weeks

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Congestion/Obstruction Score

    Time frame: Baseline and Weeks 1-4

    At Baseline, the Investigator and participant jointly evaluated the signs and symptoms of congestion/obstruction. After Baseline, participants scored the signs and symptoms of congestion/obstruction every morning immediately prior to dosing using a morning instantaneous congestion/obstruction score. This score reflected the participant's condition at that time (instantaneous) and ranged from 0 to 3 (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3= severe), with a lower score indicating less congestion/obstruction. Congestion/obstruction scores were averaged over Weeks 1-4 of the treatment period. Data are compared using Least Square (LS) Means. LS Mean Change from Baseline = LS Mean Score averaged over Weeks 1-4 - LS Mean Score for Baseline.

  2. Change From Baseline in Total Polyp Size Score

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 16

    An endoscopic nasal examination was performed by the Investigator. Bilateral nasal polyps were scored as follows for each notril (left and right): 0=no polyps, 1=polyps in middle meatus not reaching below inferior border of middle turbinate, 2=polyps reaching below inferior border of middle turbinate but not inferior border of inferior turbinate, 3=large polyps reaching to or below the lower borders of the inferior turbinate or polyps medial to the middle turbinate. Total polyp size score ranged from 0 to 6 (scored 0 to 3 for each nostril), with a lower score indicating smaller-sized polyps. LS Mean Change from Baseline = LS Mean Score for Week 16 - LS Mean Score for Baseline.
