Treatment guidelines recommend combination therapy of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) with a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) inhaled medications. This strategy is known as MART (maintenance and reliever therapy). The second strategy is PARTICS (patient activated reliever triggered ICS) strategy instructs patients to use an ICS metered dose inhaler (ICS) each time they use their rescue inhaler. In addition, they are instructed to take 5 puffs of the ICS after each rescue nebulizer use. PARTICS has been shown to reduce exacerbations, increase asthma control and quality of life, however, the question remains if PARTICS is as effective as MART and therefore be an alternative to MART. This trial will test PARTICS and MART head-to-head.\n\nThe trial will include adults with moderate-to-severe asthma at risk for an asthma exacerbation, currently using a combination ICS.\n\nThe main questions aim to answer:\n\n* Is PARTICS as effective as SMART?\n* Might PARTICS be more effective than SMART? Is the relative effectiveness of PARTICS versus SMART affected by frequent nebulizer use for asthma relief?\n* Do PARTICS and SMART diverge in terms of their effectiveness on differing asthma outcomes important to patients?\n* Do socioeconomic factors affect the relative effectiveness of PARTICS and SMART? Researchers will compare non frequent nebulizer (NFN) users - less than once a week to frequent nebulizer users - once a week or more, to assess whether the PARTICS strategy is ono-inferior (or superior to the MART strategy in reducing exacerbations, (primary outcome), increasing asthma control and quality of life and decrease days lost from work\u002Fschool or usual activities.\n\nMost participants will be consented, enrolled, and randomized virtually, others will be consented, enrolled and randomized in person. Once randomized they will be instructed on how to use the prescribed medication:\n\n* Participants randomized to MART will be instructed to use the prescribed ICS\u002FLABA for maintenance and as needed for rescue.\n* Participants randomized to PARTICS will be instructed to use the prescribed ICS each time they use their rescue inhaler and take 5 puffs of the newly prescribed ICS after each rescue nebulizer use.\n* Participants will be followed for 16 months by monthly survey.",[140,141,142,143],"Asthma","Asthma Chronic","Asthma Severe Persistent With Exacerbation","Asthma Moderate Persistent With Exacerbation",[145,146,127],"ICS reliever therapy","Decrease exacerbations","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-03-10",{"date":150,"type":151},"2026-03-12","ACTUAL",{"date":153,"type":134},"2026-07",{"date":155,"type":134},"2030-12",{"name":5,"class":6},6]
