Summary

This early-stage study tested a mix of two drugs (pembrolizumab and decitabine) plus targeted radiation in 22 children and young adults whose solid tumors or lymphoma had returned or stopped responding to treatment. The main goals were to see if the combination was safe and tolerable, and to get an early look at whether it could shrink tumors. The study was completed, but results are not yet widely reported.
