        - Women of childbearing potential* must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test
        (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) within 72 hours prior to receiving
        the first dose of study medication

          -  *A woman of childbearing potential is a sexually mature female who has not undergone a
             hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or has not been naturally postmenopausal for
             at least 24 consecutive months (i.e. has had menses at any time in the preceding 24
             consecutive months)

          -  Must agree to practice 2 effective methods of contraception from the time of signing
             the informed consent form through 120 days after the last dose of study therapy, or
             agree to completely abstain from heterosexual intercourse

               -  Male subjects of childbearing potential must agree to use an adequate method of
                  contraception

             study therapy, or agree to completely abstain from heterosexual intercourse

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Received prior treatment for extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma

          -  Medical illness unrelated to lymphoma, which, in the opinion of the treating physician
             and/or institutional principal investigator, makes participation in this study
             inappropriate.

          -  Has received a live vaccine or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to the
             first dose of study drug. Administration of killed vaccines is allowed.

          -  Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment
             within the past 2 years. Note: Participants with basal cell carcinoma of the skin,
             squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ (e.g. breast carcinoma,
             cervical cancer in situ) that have undergone potentially curative therapy are not
             excluded.

          -  Has known active CNS metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis.

          -  Has severe hypersensitivity (≥ Grade 3) to pembrolizumab and/or any of its excipients

          -  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.

          -  Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis that required steroids or has current
             pneumonitis.

          -  Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy.

          -  Has a known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).

          -  Has active Hepatitis B (defined as HBV DNA is detected) or known active Hepatitis C
             virus (defined as HCV RNA is detected) infection.

          -  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.

          -  Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with
             cooperation with the requirements of the trial.

          -  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.

          -  Has had an allogenic tissue/solid organ transplant.
