Summary

This early-phase trial tested a combination of the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab with chemotherapy and radiation in 16 people whose gastroesophageal cancer could not be removed by surgery. The goal was to see if the treatment could shrink or eliminate the cancer. The study is no longer recruiting, and results will help guide future research.
