Summary

Studies have shown that the study drug, pembrolizumab, works by helping the immune system. In this way, pembrolizumab may help to slow the growth of melanoma or may cause cancer cells to die. Compared to standard treatments, pembrolizumab seems to lengthen the time patients lived overall and the time without their cancer getting worse.
