A subset of approximately 300 patients who performed postdose serial spirometry is based on sample size calculation. Data from these assessments were used to analyze the primary endpoint of baseline adjusted FEV1 AUEC0-12h at week 12 using the trapezoidal rule based on actual time of measurement. It was standardized by dividing it by the number of hours between the start time of dose administration and the end time of the last nonmissing FEV1 measurement. The baseline FEV1 was the average of the 2 predose FEV1 measurements (30 and 10 minutes predose). If 1 of these was missing, the nonmissing value was used; if both were missing, baseline was treated as missing. Baseline-adjusted FEV1 was calculated as postdose FEV1 after subtracting the baseline FEV1 value.
Trough FEV1 was a morning spirometry taken predose and pre-rescue bronchodilator. If the patient inadvertently administered asthma medication/study drug at home on the AM of the visit, or if the patient took rescue medication within 6 hours of testing, the visit was rescheduled. The baseline for predose FEV1 was defined as the average of the 30-minute and 10-minute predose measurements obtained at the randomization visit (Day 1).

| FS MDPI 100 / 12.5 mcg | EXPERIMENTAL | Patients took 1 inhalation using a multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) twice a day of fluticasone propionate 100 mcg (for a total daily dose of 200 mcg) and salmeterol 12.5 mcg (for a total daily dose of 25 mcg) for 12 weeks. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered dose inhaler (MDI) was supplied to participants throughout the study to be used as needed as a rescue medication. |
| FS MDPI 50 / 12.5 mcg | EXPERIMENTAL | Patients took 1 inhalation using a multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) twice a day of fluticasone propionate 50 mcg (for a total daily dose of 100 mcg) and salmeterol 12.5 mcg (for a total daily dose of 25 mcg) for 12 weeks. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered dose inhaler (MDI) was supplied to participants throughout the study to be used as needed as a rescue medication. |
| Fp MDPI 100 mcg | EXPERIMENTAL | Patients took 1 inhalation using a multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) twice a day of fluticasone propionate 100 mcg for a total daily dose of 200 mcg for 12 weeks. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered dose inhaler (MDI) was supplied to participants throughout the study to be used as needed as a rescue medication. |
| Fp MDPI 50 mcg | EXPERIMENTAL | Patients took 1 inhalation using a multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) twice a day of fluticasone propionate 50 mcg for a total daily dose of 100 mcg for 12 weeks. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered dose inhaler (MDI) was supplied to participants throughout the study to be used as needed as a rescue medication. |
| Placebo MDPI | PLACEBO_COMPARATOR | The placebo multidose dry powder inhaler was identical to the devices used to deliver active drug, and indistinguishable from the active treatments. Patients took one inhalation twice a day (approximately 12 hours apart). Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered dose inhaler (MDI) was supplied to participants throughout the study to be used as needed as a rescue medication. |
| FS MDPI 200 / 12.5 mcg | EXPERIMENTAL | Participants took 1 inhalation using a multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) twice a day of fluticasone propionate 200 mcg (for a total daily dose of 400 mcg) and salmeterol 12.5 mcg (for a total daily dose of 25 mcg) for 12 weeks. |
| Fp MDPI 200 mcg | EXPERIMENTAL | Participants took 1 inhalation using a multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) twice a day of fluticasone propionate (Fp) for a total daily dose of 400 mcg for 12 weeks. |

| FS MDPI | DRUG | FS MDPI is an inhalation-driven multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) containing fluticasone propionate (Fp) and salmeterol xinafoate (Sx) dispersed in a lactose monohydrate excipient and contained within a reservoir. A metered dose of drug is delivered to a dose cup via an air pulse activated when the cap is opened. During the treatment period, participants were randomized to either 100/12.5 mcg Fp/Sx or 50/12.5 mcg Fp/Sx in the morning and evening for a total daily dose of 200/25 mcg or 100/25 mcg Fp/Sx. Participants were instructed to rinse their mouth and expectorate (not swallow) after study drug administration. |
| Fp MDPI | DRUG | Fp MDPI is an inhalation-driven multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) containing fluticasone propionate dispersed in a lactose monohydrate excipient and contained within a reservoir. A metered dose of drug is delivered to a dose cup via an air pulse activated when the cap is opened. During the treatment period, participants were randomized to either 100 mcg or 50 mcg of Fp one inhalation twice a day for a total daily dose of 200 mcg or 100 mcg. Participants were instructed to rinse their mouth and expectorate (not swallow) after study drug administration. |
| Placebo MDPI | DRUG | Placebo administered via a multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) one puff in the morning and one puff in the evening for 12 weeks. |
| albuterol/salbutamol | DRUG | A short-acting β2-adrenergic agonists (SABA), albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered dose inhaler (MDI), was provided to be used as needed for the relief of asthma symptoms during both the run-in and treatment periods (to replace the subject's current rescue medication). |
| Beclomethasone dipropionate | DRUG | QVAR (beclomethasone dipropionate) 40 mcg inhalation aerosol is a pressurized MDI that contains a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved formulation of beclomethasone dipropionate. Patients took 1 puff twice a day from open-label QVAR 40 mcg hydrofluoroalkane (specifically, HFA-134a) metered-dose inhaler (MDI) for the duration of the Run-in Period (14-21 days) and prior to randomization. A clinically equivalent dose of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) was substituted in countries where QVAR 40 mcg was not available. |
| Albuterol/salmeterol HFA MDI | DRUG | Albuterol/salmeterol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered dose inhaler (MDI) was supplied to participants throughout the study to be used as needed as a rescue medication. |
