Patients can be candidate to concomitant or sequential thoracic CRT by IMRT. • Patients candidate to concomitant thoracic CRT have to receive at least 60 Gy (one-daily fraction of 1.8-2 Gy) or 45 Gy twice daily (1.5 Gy per fraction) combined with cisplatin-etoposide regimen. • Patients candidate to sequential thoracic CRT have to receive at least 60 Gy (one-daily fraction of 1.8-2 Gy) or 45 Gy twice daily (1.5 Gy per fraction) along with carboplatin AUC5-6-etoposide regimen. 9. Patients that received previous thorax radiotherapy may be eligible if they can receive the CRT schedule planned in the clinical study according to previous irradiation fields and, in any case, after the medical monitor agreement. 10. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum beta-HCG test before the beginning of the trial, during the study treatment and for a period of at least 3 months after the last administration of the experimental drug. 11. All sexually active men and women of childbearing potential must use an effective contraception method for the duration of study treatment and for 3 months after completing treatment. 12. Patients affiliated to the social security system. 13. Patient must be willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the trial including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits, and examinations including follow Inclusion Randomization Criteria : 1. Patient must have signed a second written informed consent form prior to randomization and to any specific trial procedure. 2. Patients must have completed concomitant or sequential thoracic CRT by IMRT: • Patients that received concomitant thoracic CRT must have received at least 60 Gy (one-daily fraction of 1.8-2 Gy) or 45 Gy twice daily (1.5 Gy per fraction) combined with cisplatin-etoposide regimen. • Patients that received sequential thoracic CRT must have received at least 60 Gy (one-daily fraction of 1.8-2 Gy) or 45 Gy twice daily (1.5 Gy per fraction) along with carboplatin AUC5-6-etoposide regimen. All other schedules/methods performed need to be centrally approved before the randomization. 3. Confirmation of disease control (SD, CR or PR) at radiological assessment with contrast enhanced thorax and upper abdomen CT- scan and contrast enhanced brain CT-scan or MRI after the thoracic CRT according to RECIST v1.1. 4. Use of brain MRI in case of PCI avoidance is mandatory. PCI has to be prescribed according to the investigator’s choice and the local recommendations. 5. Patients must belong to one of these groups at the screening visit after the thoracic CRT : • ECOG PS 2. • ECOG PS 0-1 and older than 70. • ECOG PS 0-1 and who did

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients are not eligible to participate in the trial if they comply with any of the following criteria: 1. History of another primary malignancy except for a. Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease =5 years before the first dose of durvalumab and of low potential risk for recurrence. b. Adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence of disease. c. Adequately treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease. 2. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness, including but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, interstitial lung disease, serious chronic gastrointestinal conditions associated with diarrhea, or psychiatric illness that would limit compliance with study requirement, substantially increase risk of incurring AEs or compromise the ability of the patient to give written informed consent. 3. Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders (including inflammatory bowel disease [e.g., colitis or Crohn's disease], diverticulitis [with the exception of diverticulosis], systemic lupus erythematosus, Sarcoidosis syndrome, or Wegener syndrome [granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Graves' disease, rheumatoid arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc]). The following are exceptions to this criterion: a. Patients with vitiligo or alopecia. b. Patients with hypothyroidism (e.g., following Hashimoto syndrome) stable on hormone replacement. c. Any chronic skin condition that does not require systemic therapy. d. Patients without active disease in the last 5 years may be included but only after consultation with the study physician. e. Patients with celiac disease controlled by diet alone. 4. Any concurrent chemotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors, biologic, or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment. Concurrent use of hormonal therapy for non-cancer-related conditions (e.g., hormone replacement therapy) is acceptable. 5. History of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis. 6. Major surgical procedure (as defined by the Investigator) including surgical resection of the primary disease, within 28 days prior to the first dose of IMP. Note: Local surgery of isolated lesions for palliative intent is acceptable. 7. History of allogenic organ transplantation. 8. History of active primary immunodeficiency. 9. Known active infection including tuberculosis (clinical evaluation that includes clinical history, physical examination and radiographic findings, or TB testing in line with local practice) and hepatitis B and hepatitis C (positive hepatitis C virus [HCV] antibody, hepatitis B virus [HBV] surface antigen [HBsAg] or HBV core antibody [anti-HBc]).Patients with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as the presence of hepatitis B core antibody [anti-HBc] and absence of HBsAg) are eligible. Patients positive for HCV antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction is negative for HCV RNA. Patients known to have been tested positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (positive HIV 1/2 antibodies) are not eligible. 10. Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first dose of durvalumab. The following are exceptions to this criterion: a. Intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids or local steroid injections (e.g., intra articular injection). b. Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses not to exceed 10 mg/day of prednisone or its

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy in term of the progression free survival (PFS) (according to RECIST v 1.1 per investigator) of LD-SCLC patients on durvalumab maintenance treatment or on surveillance following thoracic CRT.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate in each arm of treatment the : • Centralized Progression Free Survival (cPFS), • Overall survival (OS), • Safety profile, • Health-related Quality of life (HRQoL) using EORTC QLQ-C30 and LC13.;Primary end point(s): PFS is defined by investigator as the time from randomization until disease progression (per RECIST v1.1) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. At the time of analysis, patients alive and without disease progression will be censored at the date of the last tumor assessment. Patients alive without disease progression who started a new anticancer therapy will be censored at the date of the last tumor assessment prior to the start of the new anticancer therapy. For patients without any evidence of disease at randomization, the progression will be defined as an appearance of a new lesion (measurable or not measurable). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: see above

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1. cPFS is defined by central review as the time from randomization until disease progression (per RECIST v1.1) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. At the time of analysis, patients alive and without disease progression will be censored at the date of the last tumor assessment. Patients alive without disease progression who started a new anticancer therapy will be censored at the date of the last tumor assessment prior to the start of the new anticancer therapy. For patients without any evidence of disease at randomization, the progression will be defined as an appearance of a new lesion (measurable or not measurable). 2. Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Patients still alive at the time of analysis (including lost to follow-up) will be censored at the last known alive date. 3. Safety profile: occurrence of adverse events coded using NCI CTC-AE version 5.0. 4. Quality of life (QL) will be assessed by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) core QL questionnaire, the EORTC QLQ-C30 and LC13 questionnaires (Lung Cancer Module).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: see above
