Method of Generating Random Sequence   Stratified randomization 
Method of Concealment   Centralized 
Blinding/Masking   Open Label 
Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Progression Free Survival (PFS) assessed by BICR (Blinded Independent Central Review) for Arm 1 Vs Arm 2

PFS is defined as time from randomisation until progression per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR, or death due to any cause.
The comparison will include all randomised participants, as randomized.
 
The primary (and final) PFS analysis for superiority will be performed after approximately 336 BICR PFS events have occurred across the Dato-DXd + durvalumab and ICC + pembrolizumab treatment groups (61% maturity). 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints

To evaluate efficacy of Dato-DXd + durvalumab relative to ICC + pembrolizumab by assessment of ORR in participants with PD L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC.  ORR is defined as the proportion of participants who have a CR or PR, as determined by the BICR/investigator assessment, per RECIST 1.1. 
To evaluate efficacy of Dato-DXd + durvalumab relative to ICC + pembrolizumab by assessment of DoR in participants with PD L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC.  DoR is defined as the time from the date of first documented response until date of documented progression per RECIST 1.1, as assessed by BICR/investigator assessment or death due to any cause 
To evaluate efficacy of Dato-DXd + durvalumab relative to ICC + pembrolizumab by assessment of PFS as assessed by the investigator in participants with PD L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC.  PFS is defined as time from randomisation until progression per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by investigator, or death due to any cause. 
To evaluate efficacy of Dato-DXd + durvalumab relative to ICC + pembrolizumab by assessment of CBR at 24 weeks in participants with PD L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC.  CBR at 24 weeks is defined as the percentage of participants who have a CR or PR or who have SD, per RECIST 1.1, as assessed by BICR/per investigator assessment and derived from the raw tumour data for at least 23 weeks after randomisation. 
To assess TTD in breast and arm symptoms in participants treated with Dato-DXd + durvalumab compared with ICC + pembrolizumab.  TTD in breast symptoms as measured by the breast symptoms scale from EORTC IL116

To evaluate efficacy of Dato-DXd + durvalumab relative to ICC + pembrolizumab by assessment of TFST in participants with PD L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC.  TFST is defined as the time from randomisation until the start date of the first subsequent anticancer therapy after discontinuation of randomised treatment, or death due to any cause 
To evaluate efficacy of Dato-DXd + durvalumab relative to ICC + pembrolizumab by assessment of TSST in participants with PD L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC.  TSST is defined as the time from randomisation until the start date of the second subsequent anticancer therapy after discontinuation of first subsequent treatment, or death due to any cause. 
To evaluate efficacy of Dato-DXd + durvalumab relative to ICC + pembrolizumab by assessment of PFS2 in participants with PD L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC.  PFS2 will be defined as the time from the randomisation to the earliest progression event (following the initial investigator-assessed progression), subsequent to first subsequent therapy, or death. 
To assess the pharmacokinetics of Dato DXd (6 mg/kg IV Q3W) in combination with durvalumab.  Concentration of Dato-DXd, total anti-TROP2 antibody, and DXd (payload) in plasma. 
To investigate the immunogenicity of Dato-DXd (6 mg/kg IV Q3W) in combination with durvalumab.  Presence of antidrug antibodies for Dato-DXd (confirmatory results: positive or negative, titres). 
To assess the safety & tolerability of Dato-DXd + durvalumab as compared with ICC + pembrolizumab in the safety analysis set of participants with PD L1 positive locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC.  Safety & tolerability will be evaluated in the safety population in terms of AEs (graded by CTCAE version 5.0) & in terms of:
ECOG PS
Vital signs, body weight, physical examination
Clinical chemistry, haematology, & urinalysis assessments
Ophthalmologic assessments

Crossover within the study will not be permitted. Switching between ICC agents is not permitted.

Follow up of participants post discontinuation of study intervention:

After study treatment discontinuation, all participants will undergo an end of treatment visit and safety follow up visits at protocol defined period
