Exclusion Criteria:

* Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days of cycle one day one, EXCEPT for the following permitted steroids:

  * Intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, eye drops or local steroid injection (eg,intra-articular injection);
  * Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses ≤ 10mg/day of prednisone or equivalent;
  * Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (eg, computed tomography (CT) scan premedication).
  * Other immunosuppressive agents which, in the opinion of the investigator, are not expected to significantly impact study participation or the mechanism of action of the study therapy.
* History of active primary immunodeficiency
* Diagnosis of any other malignancy within 2 years prior to study enrollment, except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, carcinoma in situ of the breast, bladder or of the cervix, and low-grade (Gleason 6 or below) prostate cancer on surveillance with no plans for treatment intervention (eg, surgery, radiation, or castration) or prostate cancer that has been adequately treated with prostatectomy or radiotherapy and currently with no evidence of disease or symptoms is allowed.

  * Patients with irreversible toxicity not reasonably expected to be exacerbated by treatment with durvalumab may be included only after consultation with the Study Physician.
