Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Group 1: Chemotherapy + RadiationEXPERIMENTALParticipants receive standard chemotherapy and radiation for 6-7 weeks, followed by a 3-4 week rest period when they receive no chemotherapy or radiation. Consolidation Phase: After the rest period, participants receive MPDL3280A in addition to chemotherapy for 2 cycles. Maintenance Phase: After completing the consolidation period, participants continue to receive MPDL3280A alone for up to 1 year.
Group 2: MPDL3280A + Chemotherapy + RadiationEXPERIMENTALParticipants receive MPDL3280A, standard chemotherapy, and radiation therapy for 6-7 weeks. This will be followed by a rest period of 3-4 weeks, during which time participant receives 1 dose of MPDL3280A but no chemotherapy or radiation. Consolidation Phase: After the rest period, participants receive MPDL3280A in addition to chemotherapy for 2 cycles. Maintenance Phase: After completing the consolidation period, participants continue to receive MPDL3280A alone for up to 1 year.
