- People who can provide a stored or freshly collected tumour tissue sample that has not been previously treated with radiation
- People who are in good enough general health to carry out light activity (performance score of 0 or 1 on a standard scale, assessed within 7 days before the first dose)
- People whose blood, liver, and kidney function meet the required levels (tested within 10 days before starting treatment)
- People with a history of Hepatitis B who have been on antiviral treatment for at least 4 weeks and have an undetectable level of the virus before joining
- People with a history of Hepatitis C who have completed curative antiviral treatment at least 4 weeks before joining and have an undetectable virus level at screening

- People who are able to understand the study and are willing to sign a written consent form
Who may not be able to join:
- People with a positive pregnancy test within 72 hours before enrolment
- People who have received any systemic cancer treatment (including experimental treatments) within 2 weeks before being assigned to the trial
- People who have had radiation therapy within 2 weeks before starting the study, or who have ongoing side effects from radiation that require steroid treatment
- People who have received a live or live-weakened vaccine within 30 days before the first dose
- People who have used an experimental drug or device within 4 weeks before starting the study
- People with an immune deficiency condition, or who are taking steroid medication at a dose above 10 mg of prednisone (or equivalent) daily, or any other immune-suppressing treatment within 7 days before the first dose
- People with another cancer that is still active or has required treatment within the past 5 years (note: certain treated skin cancers and non-bladder carcinoma in situ may still be eligible — confirm with trial site)
- People with active cancer that has spread to the brain or the lining around the brain, unless previously treated, stable on scans for at least 4 weeks, and not requiring steroids for at least 14 days
- People with a known severe allergic reaction (Grade 3 or higher) to pembrolizumab or any of its ingredients
- People with an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment within the past 2 years (routine hormone or supplement replacement is generally acceptable — confirm with trial site)
- People with a history of serious lung inflammation (pneumonitis or interstitial lung disease) that required steroid treatment, or who currently have this condition
- People with an active infection that requires treatment through medication given by mouth or injection
- People with a known history of HIV infection
- People with both active Hepatitis B and active Hepatitis C at the same time
- People who have had major surgery within 3 weeks before the first dose, or whose surgical wound has not healed adequately
- People with a psychiatric condition or substance use disorder that would make it difficult to follow the requirements of the trial
- People who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant or father a child during the study period and up to 120 days after the last dose

- People with a pre-existing severe fistula (an abnormal passage or opening in the body, Grade 3 or higher) in the digestive tract or elsewhere
- People with high levels of protein in the urine (1 gram or more per 24 hours)
- People whose heart pumping function is below the normal range as measured by a heart scan
- People whose scans show the tumour is wrapping around or growing into a major blood vessel, or where the tumour has developed a hollow cavity
- People with a significantly prolonged heart electrical interval on an ECG (QTcF greater than 480 ms)
- People with serious heart or blood vessel problems in the 12 months before joining, such as severe heart failure, unstable chest pain, a heart attack, a stroke, or an irregular heartbeat that caused dangerous changes in blood flow
