- Pembrolizumab — DRUGPembrolizumab will be continued dosed at 200 mg given every 3 weeks Drug: Pembrolizumab Pembrolizumab in week 1 dosed at 200 mg (prior to SBRT) and then treatment with pembrolizumab will be continued dosed at 200 mg given every 3 weeks.

Study Details
This is a multi-centre non-randomised open-label phase 1 trial of pembrolizumab given in combination with SBRT to part of a pleural-based lesion in patients with unresectable MPM. This study will recruit up to 18 patients whose MPM has progressed beyond first-line of palliative chemotherapy, with a platinum-based doublet, and now requires further palliative systemic treatment, or have declined first-line palliative chemotherapy, however must have been considered suitable for a platinum doublet chemotherapy.

Arms
- Other: Initial safety cohortPatients will receive an initial dose of pembrolizumab in week 1 dosed at 200 mg. They will then receive SBRT dosed at 30 Gy in 3 fractions (#) alternate days in week 3. Treatment with pembrolizumab will be continued dosed at 200 mg given every 3 weeks.
- Other: Expansion cohortAn additional 12 patients will be recruited for this cohort. Patients will receive an initial dose of pembrolizumab at 200 mg in week 1. This will be followed in by SBRT dosed at 30 Gy in 3 fractions (#) alternate days in week 3. Treatment with pembrolizumab will be continued dosed at 200 mg given every 3 weeks.
Primary Outcome Measure
Percentage of Patients With Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) [ Time Frame: Worst grade as assessed at cycle 1 day 1 of pembrolizumab, at each of three radiotherapy fractions (cycle 1 days 15, 17, 19) and then at day 1 of each 21 day cycle, up to 12 weeks from last dose of SBRT (i.e. cycle 6 day 1) ]
