Interventions

  • Pembrolizumab — BIOLOGICAL
    IV infusion
  • Carboplatin — DRUG
    IV infusion
  • Paclitaxel — DRUG
    IV infusion
  • Placebo for pembrolizumab — DRUG
    IV infusion
  • Docetaxel — DRUG
    IV infusion docetaxel 75 mg/m\^2 Q3W or 25 mg/m2 QW may be given in place of paclitaxel following sponsor consultation if a participant experiences severe hypersensitivity to paclitaxel or an adverse event requiring discontinuation of paclitaxel.
  • Cisplatin — DRUG
    Cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 IV infusion Q3W may be given in place of carboplatin following sponsor consultation if a participant experiences severe hypersensitivity to carboplatin or an adverse event requiring discontinuation of carboplatin.
  • External Beam Radiotherapy (EBRT) — RADIATION
    ≥4500 cGY given according to local practice, at the discretion of the investigator
  • Cisplatin (as radiosensitizer) — DRUG
    If a participant receives external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), then cisplatin 50 mg/m\^2 IV infusion may be administered as a radiosensitizer at the discretion of the investigator, on days 1 and 29
  • Brachytherapy — RADIATION
    Given according to local practice, at the discretion of the investigator

Study Details

The purpose of this study is to compare pembrolizumab + adjuvant chemotherapy with placebo + adjuvant chemotherapy, with or without radiotherapy, with respect to disease-free survival (DFS) as assessed radiographically by the investigator or by histopathologic confirmation of suspected disease recurrence, and with respect to overall survival (OS). The primary hypotheses are that pembrolizumab + adjuvant chemotherapy is superior to placebo + adjuvant chemotherapy, with or without radiotherapy, with respect to DFS as assessed radiographically by the investigator or by histopathologic confirmation of suspected disease recurrence, and with respect to OS.

Arms

  • Experimental: Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy
    Participants receive pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 6 cycles followed by pembrolizumab 400 mg IV on Day 1 of each 6-week cycle (Q6W) for an additional 6 cycles. During the Q3W dosing period of pembrolizumab, participants receive concurrent standard of care (SoC) chemotherapy for 4 or 6 cycles. Participants optionally receive radiotherapy starting within 6 weeks of completion of SoC chemotherapy. The SoC chemotherapy regimen includes carboplatin AUC 5 or 6 IV Q3W plus paclitaxel 175 mg/m\^2 IV Q3W. In the event of severe hypersensitivity to, or an AE requiring discontinuation of, carboplatin or paclitaxel, cisplatin or docetaxel may be substituted after investigator consults with sponsor. The SoC radiotherapy regimen may include, at the discretion of the investigator, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) ≥4500 cGY with variable dose frequency, with or without cisplatin 50 mg/m\^2 IV on days 1 and 29 of EBRT, and/or brachytherapy radiation.
  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo + Chemotherapy
    Participants receive placebo to pembrolizumab intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 6 cycles followed by placebo IV on Day 1 of each 6-week cycle (Q6W) for an additional 6 cycles. During the Q3W dosing period of placebo, participants receive concurrent standard of care (SoC) chemotherapy for 4 or 6 cycles. Participants optionally receive radiotherapy starting within 6 weeks of completion of SoC chemotherapy. The SoC chemotherapy regimen includes carboplatin AUC 5 or 6 IV Q3W plus paclitaxel 175 mg/m\^2 IV Q3W. In the event of severe hypersensitivity to, or an AE requiring discontinuation of, carboplatin or paclitaxel, cisplatin or docetaxel may be substituted after investigator consults with sponsor. The SoC radiotherapy regimen may include, at the discretion of the investigator, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) ≥4500 cGY with variable dose frequency, with or without cisplatin 50 mg/m\^2 IV on days 1 and 29 of EBRT, and/or brachytherapy radiation.

Primary Outcome Measure

Disease-Free Survival (DFS) as Assessed Radiographically by Investigator or by Histopathologic Confirmation of Suspected Disease Recurrence [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 42 months ]
