ADRIATIC

Durvalumab, with or without tremelimumab, versus placebo after concurrent chemoradiotherapy in limited-stage small-cell lung cancer

Phase 3NCT03703297

Population
Patients with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer without disease progression after standard concurrent platinum-based chemoradiotherapy
Design
Double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial: durvalumab 1500 mg, durvalumab 1500 mg plus tremelimumab 75 mg (four doses only), or placebo every 4 weeks for up to 24 months; randomisation stratified by stage (I or II vs III) and receipt of prophylactic cranial irradiation. Co-primary endpoints OS and PFS (blinded independent central review, RECIST 1.1). Data are from the first planned interim analysis (cutoff 15 January 2024) of durvalumab versus placebo; results in the durvalumab-tremelimumab group remained blinded. The registry lists 730 enrolled.
