Summary
This study tests whether the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) can help children and young adults with a rare liver cancer that has returned or not responded to standard treatment. About 18 participants will receive the drug, and researchers will measure how well it shrinks tumors and controls the disease. The goal is to find a new treatment option for this difficult-to-treat cancer.
