These real-world analyses corroborate PACIFIC study results in terms of the main reasons for treatment discontinuation in a VHA population with worse prognostic factors, including older age, predominantly male sex, and poorer performance score. One of the main reasons for durvalumab initiation delays, treatment interruptions, or discontinuations was due to toxicities. Patients could benefit from improved strategies to prevent, identify, and manage CRT and durvalumab toxicities timely and effectively.
