Seasonal influenza vaccines for injection are generally killed virus vaccines and are allowed; however, intranasal influenza vaccines (eg, FluMist®) are live attenuated vaccines and are not allowed.\n 7. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (in dosing exceeding 10 mg daily of prednisone equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug.\n 8. Has severe hypersensitivity (≥Grade 3) to pembrolizumab and/or any of its excipients.\n 9. Has active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years (i.e. with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs). Replacement therapy (eg., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment.\n 10. Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or has current pneumonitis.\n 11. Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy.\n 12. Has a known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).\n 13. Has a known history of active TB (Bacillus Tuberculosis).\n 14. Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the study, interfere with the subject's participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in the best interest of the subject to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator.\n 15. Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial.\n 16. Is pregnant or breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of trial treatment.\n 17. Is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment."}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04089904', 'briefTitle': 'Phase II Trial of Neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab for Patients With Early Stage Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Chicago'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Phase II Trial of Neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab for Resectable Early Stage Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'IRB19-0310'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'ARM 1', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Pembrolizumab Injection']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Pembrolizumab Injection', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'Patients will receive 3 cycles of pembrolizumab at 200mg intravenously on day 1 of a 3 week cycle.
