Purpose

AIO-YMO/TRK-0416 (DURATION) is a open-label, treatment stratified and randomized phase II study of Durvalumab, frail or elderly patients with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC with no targetable molecular alterations (EGFRwt; ALKtransl-) and not amenable to cisplatinum-based standard-combination chemotherapy but eligible for at-least mono-chemotherapy with gemcitabine or vinorelbine.

Detailed Description

      The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of sequential therapy
      consisting of standard of care mono- or combination chemotherapy followed by durvalumab in
      comparison to standard of care mono- or combination chemotherapy in frail/elderly patients.
