Inclusion Criteria:

• - Patients must have a grade III or IV glioma that has progressed after standard radiotherapy (RT) and temozolomide (TMZ) (Note: Pathology will need to be reviewed locally but registration can occur based on pathology report) - Patients must have had radiographic evidence of tumor progression by brain MRI or computed tomography (CT) scan with contrast.

• - Patients must be > 12 weeks from completion of radiation therapy unless there is tissue confirmation of tumor recurrence or there is progression outside the radiation treatment field.

• - Patients must be surgical candidates.

• - Patients must have had no more than 3 prior lines of chemotherapy; this includes the initial treatment and two relapses; concurrent and adjuvant TMZ-based chemotherapy, including the combination of TMZ with another agent, is considered one line of chemotherapy; for clarification, please contact the principle investigator (PI), Dr.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

• I. To determine the T-cell changes that occur in glioblastoma (GBM) treated with tremelimumab and durvalumab (MEDI4736) as single agents and in combination.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

• I. To evaluate the safety of either tremelimumab or MEDI4736 alone and in combination in patients with GBM.

• II. To determine the time to progression for patients treated with either tremelimumab or MEDI4736 alone and in combination of both, post-surgery.

• III. To determine the overall survival for patients treated with tremelimumab or MEDI4736 alone and in combination of both post-surgery.

• IV. To assess magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) changes in patients treated with either tremelimumab or MEDI4736 alone and in combination of both post-surgery.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

• I. To correlate T-cell changes and programmed death ligand 1 (PDL1) expression with patient outcomes.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 arms. ARM 1: Patients receive tremelimumab intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on day 1. Courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ARM 2: Patients receive durvalumab IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 15. Courses repeat every 2 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ARM 3: Patients receive tremelimumab IV over 1 hour on day 1 then, after a gap of 1 hour for the first cycle, durvalumab IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 15. Courses repeat every 4 weeks with tremelimumab for up to 7 courses and every 2 weeks with durvalumab for up to 14 courses. Patients then receive both tremelimumab and durvalumab IV over 1 hour every 12 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. All patients undergo surgical tumor resection on day 14. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 8-16 weeks for 2 years.
