This phase II trial tests how well the combination of celecoxib with durvalaumab and tremellimumab works in treating patients with hepatocellular cancer (liver cancer) that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Celecoxib belongs to the family of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents and is used to reduces pain. Celecoxib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and tremelimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving celecoxib with durvalaumab and tremellimumab may better treat patients with advanced or metastatic liver cancer.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To evaluate the efficacy of the combination of celecoxib, and durvalumab+ tremelimumab in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate the activity of the combination of celecoxib, and durvalumab+ tremelimumab in advanced HCC. II. To evaluate the safety and feasibility of the combination of celecoxib, and durvalumab+ tremelimumab in advanced HCC. TERTIARY/EXPLORATORY: I. To evaluate biomarkers associated with the efficacy of the combination of celecoxib, and durvalumab+ tremelimumab in advanced HCC. OUTLINE: Patients receive celecoxib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 of each cycle, durvalumab intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on day 1 of each cycle and tremelimumab IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1 of cycle 1 only. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo blood sample collection, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) throughout the study. Patients may undergo tissue biopsy during screening. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, and then every 12 weeks for up to 2 years.

RECRUITINGProgression-Free Survival (PFS)
PFS will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and a 95% confidence interval for median PFS will be estimated using the Brookmeyer-Crowley approach.
Time frame: Time between the date of registration and the first date of documented progression, regardless of discontinuation of study drug, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 2 years
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
ORR defined as the proportion of all subjects whose best overall response is either a complete response or partial response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 criteria. ORR will be reported as a proportion, and 95% exact binomial confidence interval will be estimated using the Clopper-Pearson method.
Time frame: Up to 2 years
Incidence of Adverse Events (AE)
Will be determined according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 5. Frequencies and percentages will be used to summarize safety events.
Time frame: Up to 2 years
One Treatment Cycle
Frequencies and percentages will be used to determine the proportion of subjects who complete one treatment cycle.
Time frame: During cycle 1 (cycle 1 = 28 days)
Incidence of Adverse Events Profile
Incidence of Adverse Events (AE) profile with the combination of celecoxib, and durvalumab+ tremelumumab will be determined according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5. Frequencies and percentages will be used to summarize events.
Time frame: Up to 2 years
