first-line fluoropyrimidine/platinum-containing chemotherapy for metastatic disease or
perioperative chemotherapy

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both AstraZeneca
staff and/or staff at the study site)

2. Previous enrollment in the present study

3. Participation in another clinical study with an investigational product during the
last 2 weeks

PD-L1, including durvalumab inhibitor or an anti-CTLA4 including tremelimumab, or with
cancer vaccine, or with paclitaxel or docetaxel

5. History of another primary malignancy except for Malignancy treated with curative
intent and with no known active disease ≥ 5 years before the first dose of study drug
and of low potential risk for recurrence Adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer
or lentigo maligna without evidence of disease Adequately treated carcinoma in situ
without evidence of disease eg, cervical cancer in situ

6. Receipt of the last dose of anti-cancer therapy (chemotherapy, immunotherapy,
endocrine therapy, targeted therapy including TKIs, tumor embolization, other
investigational agent) ≤ 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug (≤ 4 weeks
prior to the first dose of study drug for subjects who have received prior monoclonal
antibodies or biologic therapy, and within 6 weeks for nitrosourea or mitomycin C).

7. Any unresolved toxicity NCI-CTCAE Grade ≥2 from previous anticancer therapy with the
exception of alopecia, vitiligo, and the laboratory values defined in the inclusion
criteria; Patients with Grade ≥2 neuropathy will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis
after consultation with the Study Physician. Patients with irreversible toxicity not
reasonably expected to be exacerbated by treatment with durvalumab or tremelimumab may
be included only after consultation with the Study Physician

8. Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first
dose of durvalumab or tremelimumab, with the exceptions of intranasal and inhaled
corticosteroids or systemic corticosteroids at physiological doses, which are not to
exceed 10 mg/day of prednisone, or an equivalent corticosteroid. Dexamethasone used
for paclitaxel premedication is allowed.

9. Any prior Grade ≥3 immune-related adverse event (irAE) while receiving any previous
immunotherapy agent, or any unresolved irAE >Grade 1

10. Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders (including
inflammatory bowel disease (eg, colitis or Crohn's disease), diverticulitis (with the
exception of diverticulosis), systemic lupus erythematosus, Sarcoidosis syndrome, or
Wegener syndrome (granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Graves' disease, rheumatoid
arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc). The following are exceptions to this
criterion: Patients with vitiligo or alopecia, Patients with hypothyroidism (eg,
following Hashimoto syndrome) stable on hormone replacement, Any chronic skin
condition that does not require systemic therapy, Patients without active disease in
the last 5 years may be included but only after consultation with the study physician,

11, History of primary immunodeficiency 12, History of allogeneic organ transplant 13.
History of hypersensitivity to durvalumab or tremelimumab 14. History of anaphylaxis
reactions to taxanes 15. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to,

unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, active bleeding diatheses including any

or compromise the ability of the subject to give written informed consent 16. Active
infection including tuberculosis (clinical evaluation that includes clinical history,
physical examination and radiographic findings), hepatitis B (known positive HBV surface
antigen (HBsAg) result), hepatitis C, or human immunodeficiency virus (positive HIV 1/2
antibodies). Patients with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as the presence of
hepatitis B core antibody [anti-HBc] and absence of HBsAg) are eligible. Patients positive

the last dose of durvalumab + tremelimumab combination therapy 20. Any condition that, in
the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with evaluation of study treatment or
interpretation of patient safety or study results 21. Brain metastases or spinal cord
compression unless the patient is stable (asymptomatic; no evidence of new or emerging
brain metastases; and stable and off steroids and anti-convulsants for at least 14 days
prior to start of study treatment.

Patients with suspected brain metastases at screening should have an MRI (preferred) or CT
each preferably with IV contrast of the brain prior to study entry; Following radiotherapy
and/or surgery of the brain metastases patients must wait 4 weeks following the
intervention and before treatment with imaging to confirm stability 22. Subjects with
uncontrolled seizures. 23.Female patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding or male or
female patients of reproductive potential who are not willing to employ effective birth

combination therapy or 90 days after the last dose of durvalumab monotherapy, whichever is
the longer time period 24.Known allergy or hypersensitivity to IP or any excipient If a
patient withdraws from participation in the study, then his or her enrollment/randomization
