The China extension study will include participants previously enrolled in China in the global study for MK-3475-585 (NCT03221426) plus those enrolled during the China extension enrollment period. A total of approximately 120 Chinese participants will be enrolled.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3745) in the neoadjuvant (prior to surgery) or adjuvant (after surgery) treatment of previously untreated Chinese adults with gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma. No formal hypothesis testing will be done.
