Intervention / Treatment

Experimental: Treatment: all patients; Patients entering trial should be on stable dose of osi for ≥4 weeks. Patients will self-administer osi by mouth regardless of food once daily. Doses should be taken at about the same time every day (±6hrs) and recorded on the patient dosing diary. Doses missed outside of the dosing window should not be made up but patients should be instructed to take their next dose at their regularly scheduled time. Ipi will be administered at the assigned dose level every 21 days (±3days) for a max of 4 doses. Ipi must be infused using a volumetric pump over 90min (±10min) through an IV line. Upon completion of the ipilimumab regimen, patients will continue osimertinib daily until disease progression, initiation of new anti-cancer therapy, or death by any cause.

Efficacy of osimertinib in combination with ipilimumab: Ipilimumab progression free survival (iPFS)	Ipilimumab progression free survival (iPFS) as assessed as the time from the first dose of ipilimumab until documented radiographic or clinical progression or death by any cause.	iPFS defined as the time between the initiation of ipilimumab and documented progression, death, or 5 yrs from end of treatment
Efficacy of osimertinib in combination with ipilimumab: Overall survival	Overall survival will be assessed as the time from trial initiation until death by any cause.	will be assessed as the time between trial initiation and death of any cause up to 5 yrs after end of treatment
Efficacy of osimertinib in combination with ipilimumab	Time until the initiation of alternative anti-cancer therapy as defined as the time from radiographic progression until the first dose of alternative therapy.	will be assessed as the time between radiographic progression and the initiation of any alternative anti-cancer therapy up to 5 yrs. after end of treatment.
