This trial is for adults with inoperable locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors after standard treatment fails, or when no survival-prolonging standard option exists. Prior-treatment exceptions apply.

The idea: durvalumab blocks PD-L1 to support immune attack. Separate groups receive it alone or with gemcitabine, liposomal doxorubicin, capecitabine, carboplatin, paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel. Cancer type and prior immunotherapy restrict the durvalumab-only group. Biopsies help study immune changes.

This phase 2 study plans 115 patients. A P Chen leads the National Cancer Institute study in Bethesda, the sole recruiting US site. Safety is the primary goal.
