If you choose to join this study, you will:
- Be randomly assigned (like a coin flip) to 1 of 3 treatment groups
-- One group will receive only chemotherapy for 3 months

-- A third group will receive chemotherapy and immunotherapy together for 3 months followed by immunotherapy for up to 10 months
- Get check-ups from your doctor every 3 months for the first 2 years after treatment
- Get check-ups from your doctor every 6 months for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th years after treatment
