Basket Trial for Combination Therapy With Durvalumab (Anti-PDL1) (MEDI4736) and Tremelimumab (Anti-CTLA4) in Patients With Metastatic Solid Tumors

To determine the efficacy (as measured by overall tumour response rate) of the combination of durvalumab and tremelimumab when given to previously treated patients with solid tumors harboring a high mutational load.

9. Haemoglobin \> 9 g/dL, neutrophils \> 1500/mm3, platelets \> 100,000/mm3
10. Serum creatinine CL\>40 mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault formula (Cockcroft and Gault 1976) or by 24-hour urine collection for determination of creatinine clearance.
11. At least one lesion, not previously irradiated, which can be measured at baseline as ≥10 mm in the longest diameter (except lymph nodes which must have short axis ≥ 15 mm) with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and suitable for repeated assessment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines v1.1.
12. Females of childbearing potential who are sexually active with a non-sterilized male partner must use at least 1 highly effective method of contraception, from screening, and must agree to continue using such precautions for 180 days after the final dose of durvalumab and tremelimumab or 90 days after the last dose of durvalumab monotherapy, whichever is the longer time period; cessation of birth control after this point should be discussed with a responsible physician. Male partners of a female subject must use male condom plus spermicide throughout this period. Not engaging in sexual activity for the total duration of the drug treatment and the drug washout period is an acceptable practice; however, periodic abstinence, the rhythm method, and the withdrawal method are not acceptable methods of birth control.

    1. Females of childbearing potential are defined as those who are not surgically sterile (ie, bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or complete hysterectomy) or postmenopausal (defined as 12 months with no menses without an alternative medical cause)
    2. Subjects must use at least one method of contraception highly effective, such as Copper T intrauterine device, Levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (eg, Mirena® ) a Etonogestrel implants; eg, Implanon or Norplan, Intravaginal device; eg, ethinylestradiol and etonogestrel, Medroxyprogesterone injection: DepoProvera, Normal and low dose combined oral contraceptive pil, Norelgestromin/ethinylestradiol transdermal system or use of Cerazette (desogestrel)
    3. Female subjects should also refrain from breastfeeding throughout this period
    4. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test result within 3 days prior to initiation of study drugs Nonsterilized males who are sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential must use a male condom with spermicide for 180 days after the final dose of durvalumab and tremelimumab or 90 days after the last dose of durvalumab monotherapy, whichever is the longer time period. Female partners of a male subject must use a highly effective method of contraception throughout this period. Not engaging in sexual activity is an acceptable practice; however, occasional abstinence, the rhythm method, and the withdrawal method are not acceptable methods of contraception. Male subjects should refrain from sperm donation and female subjects should refrain from oocyte donation throughout this period.
13. Absence of any psychological, familial or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; those conditions should be discussed with the patient before inclusion in the trial
14. Patient must be affiliated to a social security system or beneficiary of the same

A shorter duration of five half times may be considered after Sponsor approval, for patients treated with non-cytotoxic drugs). (If sufficient wash-out time has not occurred due to the schedule or PK properties of an agent, a longer wash-out period may be required.)
7. Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first dose of durvalumab or tremelimumab. The following are exceptions to this criterion:

   1. Intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, or local steroid injections (eg, intra articular injection)
