Patients with Grade ≥2 neuropathy will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis afterconsultation with the Study Physician.
Patients with irreversible toxicity not reasonably expected to be exacerbated bytreatment with durvalumab or tremelimumab may be included only after consultationwith the Study Physician.
Radiotherapy treatment to more than 30% of the bone marrow or with a wide field ofradiation within 4 weeks of the first dose of study drug
