What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 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.

    Measured: 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)

  2. 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.

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

  14. Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab Combination Versus Placebo: Time From Randomization to Second Progression (PFS2)

    PFS2 is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the earliest of the progression event subsequent to the first subsequent anticancer therapy (excluding radiotherapy) or death. The date of second progression is recorded by the Investigator in the eCRF at each assessment and defined according to local standard clinical practice and might involve any of the following: objective radiological imaging, symptomatic progression, or death.

    Measured: 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

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

    PFS per RECIST 1.1 assessed by BICR is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of objective PD or death (by any cause in the absence of progression) regardless of whether the participant withdraws from therapy or receives another anticancer therapy prior to progression. PD is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of TLs, taking as reference the smallest previous sum of diameters (nadir) - this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm from nadir.

    Measured: 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

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

    ORR per RECIST 1.1 assessed by BICR is defined as the percentage of participants with at least 1 visit response of CR or PR (i.e., unconfirmed response). CR is defined as disappearance of all TLs since baseline. Any pathological lymph nodes selected as TLs must have a reduction in short axis diameter to <10 mm. PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of TL, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.

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

  17. Durvalumab Versus Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab: Overall Survival

    OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until death due to any cause.

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

  18. Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab Versus Placebo: Change From Baseline in Patient-Reported Symptoms as Assessed by European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaires (EORTC QLQ)

    Patient-reported outcomes for 5 disease related symptoms will be assessed using EORTC QLQ-Core 30 (C30) items questionnaire (fatigue, appetite loss) and EORTC QLQ-Lung Cancer module 13 (LC13) (dyspnea, cough and pain in chest). An outcome variable consisting of a score from 0 to 100 will be derived for each of the symptom scales/symptom items, functional scales, and global health status (GHS) scale with higher scores on GHS/QoL and functioning scales representing better health status/function, but higher scores on symptom scales/items representing greater symptom severity.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and up to approximately 89 months

  19. Durvalumab: Serum Concentration of Durvalumab

    Blood samples were collected to determine the concentration of durvalumab.

    Measured: End of infusion on Cycle 1 Day 1, pre-infusion on Cycle 2 (Week 4), Cycle 5 (Week 16) and Cycle 26 (Week 100) and Month 3 post last dose of study treatment (Week 119) (each treatment cycle is 28 days)

  20. Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab: Serum Concentration of Tremelimumab

    Blood samples will be collected to determine the concentration of tremelimumab.

    Measured: Up to approximately 27 months

  21. Durvalumab: Number of Participants With Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) Response to Durvalumab

    Blood samples were collected to determine the presence of ADAs for durvalumab using validated assays. Treatment-emergent ADA-positive was defined as either treatment-induced (post-baseline ADA-positive only) or treatment-boosted ADA (baseline positive ADA titer that was boosted to ≥4 fold during the study period). Treatment-induced ADA was defined as ADA positive post-baseline and not detected at baseline. Treatment-boosted ADA was defined as a baseline positive ADA titer that was boosted to a 4-fold or higher level (greater than the analytical variance of the assay) following drug administration. Number of participants with treatment-emergent ADA (ADA incidence) are presented.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug (Day 1) up to DCO date 15 January 2024 (a maximum of approximately 1936 days)

  22. Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab: Number of Participants With Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) Response to Tremelimumab

    Blood samples will be collected to determine the presence of ADAs for tremelimumab using validated assays. Treatment-emergent ADA-positive is defined as either treatment-induced (post-baseline ADA-positive only) or treatment-boosted ADA (baseline positive ADA titer that was boosted to ≥4 fold during the study period). Treatment-boosted ADA is defined as a baseline positive ADA titer that was boosted to a 4-fold or higher level (greater than the analytical variance of the assay) following drug administration. Treatment-induced ADA is defined as ADA positive post-baseline and not detected at baseline.

    Measured: Up to approximately 30 months

  23. Durvalumab Versus Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab: Number of Participants With Positive Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Status Based on Progression-Free Survival, Overall Survival, and Objective Response Rate

    Blood samples will be collected for clinical biomarker testing and a tumor specimen will be collected as per tumor specimen collection requirements. The specimen will be evaluated by immunohistochemistry to determine the expression of tumor specific antigens and immune markers. The PD-L1 is a biomarker and will be assessed using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP263) assay.

    Measured: Up to approximately 89 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Durvalumab and Tremelimumab in people with Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by AstraZeneca at 183 sites in 19 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 183 sites in United States, China, Japan, Germany, South Korea and 14 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 Aug 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Durvalumab Versus Placebo: Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (time frame: 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)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03703297, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Nov 2025.
