Subjects must sign an informed consent document indicating that they understand the purpose of and procedures required for the study and are willing to participate in the study.

Detailed Description

The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of intranasal administration of twice-daily doses of 186 and 372 µg of OPN-375 (fluticasone propionate) with placebo in subjects with chronic rhinosinusitis using the following co-primary endpoints: 1. A change from baseline in symptoms as measured by the average morning composite score of nasal congestion, facial pain or pressure sensation, and nasal discharge (anterior and/or posterior) at the end of Week 4. 2. A change from baseline to Week 24/Early Termination (ET) in the average percent of the volume opacified in the ethmoid and maxillary sinuses.
