  1. Analysis of the primary endpoint was performed using ANCOVA with covariates of baseline FEV1, smoking status and treatment. Analysis of the secondary endpoint was by MMRM analysis including covariates of baseline FEV1, smoking status, day, treatment, day by baseline interaction and day by treatment interaction, where day is nominal
  2. CI confidence interval, FEV 1 forced expiratory volume in 1 s, FP/SAL fluticasone propionate/salmeterol, ITT intent-to-treat, LS least squares, MRMM mixed-effect model repeated measure model, SE, standard error, UMEC umeclidinium, VI vilanterol, wm weighted mean
