Study Details

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with solid tumors, lymphomas (blood cancers), and a certain type of skin cancer. The goals of this study are to learn: * About the safety of pembrolizumab (the study medicine) and if people tolerate it * What happens to different doses of pembrolizumab in a person's body over time * How the cancer responds (gets smaller or goes away) to treatment

Arms

  • Experimental: Arm 1: Pembrolizumab in Pediatric Participants with Solid Tumors or Lymphomas
    Pediatric participants with solid tumors or lymphomas receive 2 mg/kg pembrolizumab via intravenous (IV) infusion every 3 weeks (Q3W) on Day 1 of each 21 day cycle for up to 17 or 35 cycles.
  • Experimental: Arm 2: Pembrolizumab in Adult Participants with Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC)
    Adult participants with MCC receive 400 mg pembrolizumab via IV infusion on Day 1 of each 42 day (6 week) cycle, for up to 18 cycles.
