  5. History of another primary malignancy except for malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease ≥5 years before the first dose of IP
  6. History of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis
  7. Paraneoplastic syndrome (PNS) of autoimmune nature, requiring systemic steroids or clinical symptomatology suggesting worsening of PNS
  8. Active infection including tuberculosis, HIV, hepatitis B and C.
  9. Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders
  10. Uncontrolled cardiovascular disease

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Treatment-related Adverse Events with a Severity of 3 or higher (Safety and tolerability)
Evaluate the safety and tolerability profile of durvalumab + tremelimumab in combination with carboplatin and etoposide in ES-SCLC and PS2. Adverse events with a severity grade of 3 or higher per CTCAE guidelines will be used to assess this outcome.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of durvalumab and tremelimumab in combination with intravenous (IV) carboplatin plus (+) etoposide in new patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).
Detailed Description
This Phase I, multicenter, study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of durvalumab (anti-programmed death-ligand 1 [PD-L1] antibody) and tremelimumab (anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 [CTLA-4] antibody) in combination with intravenous (IV) carboplatin plus (+) etoposide in treatment naïve patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) and performance status 2 (PS2). Eighteen patients with untreated ES-SCLC and PS2 will be enrolled. Cohort 1, which includes the first 6 subjects, will receive IV carboplatin and etoposide Q 3 weeks x 4 cycles. Durvalumab 1500 mg IV Q 3 weeks will be given with chemotherapy during cycles 3 and 4. This will be followed by durvalumab 1500 mg IV Q 4 weeks until disease progression. If 2 out of 6 patients have dose-limiting toxicities, then the study will be closed. Cohort 2, which will include 12 additional subjects, will receive chemotherapy Q 3 weeks x 4 cycles. Durvalumab 1500 mg IV + tremelimumab 75 mg IV Q 3 weeks will be given with chemotherapy during cycles 3 and 4, then durvalumab 1500 mg + tremelimumab 75 mg will be administered Q 3 weeks during cycles 5 and 6. This will be followed by durvalumab 1500 mg IV Q 4 weeks until disease progression.
