Interventions

  • durvalumab — BIOLOGICAL
    Durvalumab can be given irrespective of CBC, at the discretion of the treating physician.
  • carboplatin AUC 2/paclitaxel — DRUG
  • External beam radiation (EBRT) — RADIATION
    Radiation will be delivered starting on a Monday or Tuesday between Days 29-30, based on the first induction durvalumab dose administered on Day 1. Patients will be treated 5 days/week at 1.80 Gy/day, to a total planned dose of 41Gy in 23 fractions. Induction Day 15 has a -1/+2 day window, and Day 29 has a -1/+1 day window.
  • esophagogastrectomy — PROCEDURE
    Patients undergo surgical resection 6-10 weeks after the completion of chemoradiation.
  • Tremelimumab — DRUG
    Tremelimumab will be administered once at 300 mg on Day 29 prior to chemoradiation only.

Study Details

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of adding a new drug, durvalumab (also called MEDI4736), to chemoradiation with either FOLFOX/Capeox or carboplatin and paclitaxel, following initial chemotherapy with FOLFOX. The investigators want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, this combination has on the patient and cancer.
