Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
The safety of combined or single-dose aminophylline and ambrisentan at simulated high altitude in resting human subjects
Safety endpoints will be measured during an episode of simulated high altitude (Cycle 1), at least 7 days post screening

Incidence and severity of Adverse Events, blood pressure, heart rate, ECGs, blood oxygen saturation (pulse oximetry), symptoms related to early acute mountain sickness (AMS)

The safety of combined or single-dose aminophylline and ambrisentan at simulated altitude in exercising human subjects
Safety endpoints will be measured during simulated high altitude (Cycle 2) at least 22 days post screening

Incidence and severity of Adverse Events, blood pressure, heart rate, ECGs, blood oxygen saturation (pulse oximetry), symptoms related to acute mountain sickness (AMS)

Secondary Endpoints
The efficacy of combined aminophylline and ambrisentan to improve exercise capacity under simulated high altitude
Drug effects on exercise capacity are assessed during an episode of simulated high altitude (Cycle 2), at least 22 days after screening
The influence of simulated high altitude on pharmacokinetic profiles and drug interaction of aminophylline and ambrisentan
Blood samples for drug interaction analysis are acquired during an episode of simulated high altitude (Cycle 1), at least 7 days past screening
