【Indications】
Durvalumab is a human immunoglobulin G1 kappa (IgG1κ) monoclonal antibody indicated for the treatment of adult patients with:
Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC):
Resectable Stage II/III: In combination with platinum-containing chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment, followed by single-agent as adjuvant treatment after surgery (tumors ≥4 cm and/or node-positive, and no known EGFR mutations or ALK rearrangements).
Unresectable Stage III: As consolidation therapy for patients whose disease has not progressed following concurrent platinum-based chemoradiotherapy.
Metastatic: In combination with tremelimumab-actl and platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment (no sensitizing EGFR mutations or ALK genomic aberrations).
Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC):
Limited-Stage (LS-SCLC): As single-agent consolidation therapy for patients whose disease has not progressed following concurrent platinum-based chemoradiotherapy.
Extensive-Stage (ES-SCLC): In combination with etoposide and carboplatin or cisplatin as first-line treatment.
Biliary Tract Cancer (BTC): In combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin for first-line treatment of locally advanced or metastatic disease.
Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC): In combination with tremelimumab-actl for the treatment of unresectable adult patients.
Endometrial Cancer: In combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel for adult patients with primary advanced or recurrent mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) disease, followed by single-agent durvalumab.
Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC): In combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin as neoadjuvant treatment, followed by single-agent adjuvant treatment after radical cystectomy.

【Pharmacological Action】
Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is expressed on tumor cells and tumor-associated immune cells within the tumor microenvironment, and its expression can be induced by inflammatory signals (e.g., IFN-γ). PD-L1 inhibits T-cell function and activation through interaction with PD-1 and CD80 (B7.1), thereby reducing cytotoxic T-cell activity, proliferation, and cytokine production.
Durvalumab is a human IgG1κ monoclonal antibody that binds to PD-L1 and blocks its interaction with PD-1 and CD80. By blocking PD-L1/PD-1 and PD-L1/CD80 interactions, it counteracts immune suppression. Durvalumab does not induce antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC).
In xenograft mouse models co-engrafted with human tumors and immune cells, durvalumab blockade of PD-L1 enhanced T-cell activation in vitro and reduced tumor volume.
