The usual approach is defined as care most people get for cancer in the stomach, esophagus, or gastroesophageal junction.

This is a research study to compare the safety and effectiveness of two different ways to treat asthma. The first way is adding inhaled corticosteroids to your rescue medication (the medicine that opens your airways quickly). The second way it using an antibiotic over time. These treatments will be used alone or together and compared to usual care plus a system to track asthma symptoms at home. We hope to find out who will do best with each type of treatment, which is not known at this time.
