Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Durvalumab Versus Placebo: Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1

    PFS per RECIST 1.1 assessed by BICR was defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of objective disease progression (PD) or death (by any cause in the absence of progression) regardless of whether the participant withdrew from therapy or received another anticancer therapy prior to progression. PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions (TLs), taking as reference the smallest previous sum of diameters (nadir) - this included the baseline sum if that was the smallest on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters (mm) from nadir. Median PFS was calculated using Kaplan-Meier method and its confidence interval (CI) using Brookmeyer-Crowley method.

    Response evaluations performed every 8 weeks (q8w) ± 1 week up to 72 weeks, then every 12 weeks (q12w) ± 1 week up to 96 weeks, and then every 24 weeks (q24w) thereafter until PD, up to DCO date 15 January 2024 (a maximum of approximately 1936 days)

  • Durvalumab Versus Placebo: Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from the date of randomization until death due to any cause. Median OS was calculated using Kaplan-Meier method and its CI using Brookmeyer-Crowley method.

    From date of randomization until death due to any cause, up to DCO date 15 January 2024 (a maximum of approximately 1936 days)

Secondary Outcomes (23)

  • Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab Combination Versus Placebo: Progression-Free Survival Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1

    Response evaluations performed q8w ± 1 week up to 72 weeks, then q12w ± 1 week up to 96 weeks, and then q24w thereafter until PD, up to approximately 89 months

  • Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab Combination Versus Placebo: Overall Survival

    From date of randomization until death due to any cause, up to approximately 89 months

  • Durvalumab Versus Placebo: Objective Response Rate (ORR) Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1

    Response evaluations performed q8w ± 1 week up to 72 weeks, then q12w ± 1 week up to 96 weeks, and then q24w thereafter until PD, up to DCO date 15 January 2024 (a maximum of approximately 1936 days)

  • Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab Combination Versus Placebo: Objective Response Rate Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1

    From date of randomization until death due to any cause, up to approximately 89 months

  • Durvalumab Versus Placebo: Percentage of Participants Progression-Free at 18 Months Following Randomization (PFS18) Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 130 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo

You may not qualify if:

  • Extensive-stage SCLC
  • Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness, including but not limited to interstitial lung disease.
  • Active infection including tuberculosis, HIV, hepatitis B and C
  • Patients who received sequential chemotherapy and radiotherapy (no overlap of RT with chemotherapy)

Limitations and Caveats

Based on the results of the secondary objectives at the interim analysis (reviewed by an unblinded IDMC), data for the D+T arm were to remain blinded to the Sponsor as pre-specified in the study's unblinding plan. Since the D+T arm was blinded at the time of posting the results from this interim analysis, results for that arm will be posted at the time of final analysis.
