Measure
Treatment (Varlilumab, Atezolizumab, SBRT)
Patients receive varlilumab IV over 90 minutes and atezolizumab IV over 30-60 minutes every cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days for up to 1 year (18 cycles) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Between cycle 1 and 2, patients also receive SBRT. Atezolizumab 1200 MG in 20 ML Injection: Given IV every 3 weeks (cycle is 21 days) Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy: Undergo SBRT between cycle 1 and cycle 2 (each cycle is 21 days) Varlilumab 3 mg/kg: Given IV every 3 weeks (cycle is 21 days)

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence, assessed up to 1 year

Will be defined as the proportion of all subjected confirmed with an immune-related partial response (irPR) or immune-related complete response (irCR) divided by the number of assigned patients according to immune-related Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (irRECIST).

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 1 year

Will be defined as the percentage of patients who achieve irCR, irPR, and immune-related stable disease.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From cycle 1, day 1 (each cycle is 21 days) of treatment until the criteria for disease progression is met as defined by irRECIST or death as a result of any cause, assessed up to 1 year

The log-rank test will be used to analyze PFS for comparison of treatment effects, i.e., the only covariate that will be used is the treatment arm. Distributions of PFS times will be estimated using the Kaplan- Meier product-limit method. The median PFS times with two-sided 95% confidence intervals will be estimated for each treatment group.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 30 days after the last dose of treatment

irAE's are defined as any treatment-related AE that is inflammatory in nature, consistent with the mechanism of action of immunotherapy and generally medically manageable with topical and/or systemic immunosuppressants.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Baseline up to cycle 2, day 8 (each cycle is 21 days)

Will be assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and will score the percentage of cells staining positively for PD-L1 incrementally. Scoring will be performed for the percentage of malignant tumor cells and for the percentage of nonmalignant inflammatory cell compartment that express PD-L1, separately.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Baseline up to cycle 2, day 8 (each cycle is 21 days)

Will be assessed by IHC staining to identify tumor infiltrating lymphocytes at the tumor stroma interface.
