Advair study for HAPE risk and healthy volunteers
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if Advair HFA affects how likely someone is to develop High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE), a serious lung condition at high altitudes. It compares people who are prone to HAPE, those who are resistant, and healthy controls.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 50 years old
- Your BMI is between 20 and 35
- You are in good general health with no major medical issues
- For HAPE-prone group: you have had a documented episode of HAPE at high altitude and live below 3,000 feet
- For HAPE-resistant group: you have traveled to high altitude without getting HAPE and live below 3,000 feet
- For healthy controls: you are a Colorado resident

This study looks at how the right side of the heart responds to low oxygen levels in people who have had high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) in the past. It will help researchers better understand right heart function.
This trial tests whether high-flow oxygen (delivered through a special nasal tube) works better than standard oxygen therapy for a condition called high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE)—fluid buildup in the lungs caused by rapid ascent to high altitude. The study aims to see which approach helps patients breathe better and recover faster.
This trial tests new ways to diagnose and treat severe altitude sickness, which can cause fluid in the lungs or swelling in the brain. It aims to improve care for people who get very sick after climbing to high altitudes quickly.
This trial tests if inhaled nitric oxide helps people with high-altitude pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs from high altitude). It may offer a new treatment option for those with mild to moderate symptoms.
This study looks at high-altitude polycythemia, a condition where your body makes too many red blood cells because of living at high altitude. Researchers want to learn more about it, so they are inviting people with this condition to participate.
This study looks at how the heart and lungs respond when people with pulmonary hypertension travel from low to high altitude. It may help doctors understand how to better care for patients living at high altitudes.
