Summary

This study tested whether adding the immunotherapy drug durvalumab to standard chemotherapy could shrink large stage III lung cancers enough to allow safe radiation therapy. About 10 people took part. The goal was to see if more patients could become eligible for radiation compared to historical results. The trial was stopped early, so results are limited.
