Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (durvalumab, chemotherapy, radiation therapy)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
INDUCTION: Patients receive standard of care chemotherapy consisting of carboplatin or cisplatin and etoposide. Patients also receive durvalumab IV on day 1 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for up to 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. MAINTENANCE: Patients receive durvalumab IV on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning cycle 5 or 6 of durvalumab, patients undergo hypofractionated radiation therapy.
