About this trial
This phase II trial studies the side effects of durvalumab when given together with chemotherapy in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride, capecitabine, carboplatin, paclitaxel, and nab-paclitaxel work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy with durvalumab may improve how immune cells respond and attack tumor cells.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Patients with histologically documented metastatic or locally advanced (not amenable to surgery) solid tumors whose disease has progressed following at least one line of standard therapy and/or no standard of treatment exists that has been shown to prolong survival.
If anti-PD-1 or one of the 6 chemotherapy agents is standard-of-care, prior therapy with the agent would not be required.
Patient must have tumor amenable to biopsy and be willing to undergo a tumor biopsy.
Flash frozen tissue collected as part of another study or from a procedure performed due to medical necessity may be acceptable as the baseline sample if the samples were collected within 3 months prior to registration and the patient has not received any investigational or targeted treatment since that time.
Disqualifiers
Patients who received prior therapy with a checkpoint inhibitor and were taken off drug for serious adverse events are excluded. Patients who had prior CTLA-4 inhibitor treatment and did not experience serious adverse events are eligible for all arms. Patients who had prior PD-L1/PD-1 inhibitor treatment and did not experience serious adverse events are excluded from the durvalumab monotherapy arm but are eligible for the chemotherapy combinations.
Patients with pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, or microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancer, or other histologies where clinical evidence exists that single-agent inhibition of PD-L1/PD-1 has minimal activity will not receive single-agent durvalumab but may be eligible to receive this agent with chemotherapy (Arms 2-7).
Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents. Patients on other trials will be eligible as long as they are no longer receiving study treatment.
