Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Durvalumab + Gemcitabine based chemotherapy
Participants will receive durvalumab 1500 mg as a 60-minute IV infusion in the first cycle (Day 1) and as a 30 -minute IV infusion in the following cycles, in combination with background gemcitabine-based chemotherapy every three or two weeks for up to a maximum of 8 cycles. Upon completing 8 cycles of background gemcitabine-chemotherapy, or after discontinuing any of the combination chemotherapies due to toxicity before completing 8 cycles, participants are eligible to continue receiving durvalumab 1500 mg IV every 4 weeks either alone or in combination with gemcitabine-based chemotherapy (with the exception of paclitaxel), as per investigator's discretion.
