Summary

This early-stage trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab to standard chemotherapy can help people with rare, aggressive small cell or neuroendocrine cancers of the bladder or prostate. About 15 adults whose cancer has spread will receive the combination. The goal is to see if the treatment shrinks tumors and keeps them from growing for at least 6 months.
