- Estimate the response rate of the combination therapy in refractory or recurrent PTCL
Secondary Objectives:
- Estimate progression free survival (PFS).
- Estimate overall survival (OS).
- Estimate complete response (CR) and duration of response (DOR).
- Estimate the event-free survival (EFS) and the failure free survival (FFS)
- Estimate the overall response rate (ORR) per Lugano criteria.
Exploratory Objectives:
- Assess activation of T-cells after treatment in peripheral blood and tumor microenvironment.
- Correlate features of peripheral blood T-cell activation with toxicities, clinical response, and PFS.
OUTLINE:
Participants receive romidepsin intravenously (IV) over 4 hours on days 1 and 8 or day 8 of cycle 1 and days 1 and 8 of subsequent cycles and pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Cycles repeat every 21 days for up to 36 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up at 30 days and then every 12 weeks.

Subjects with previously treated brain metastases may participate provided they are stable (without evidence of progression by imaging for at least four weeks prior to the first dose of trial treatment and any neurologic symptoms have returned to baseline), have no evidence of new or enlarging brain metastases, and are not using steroids for at least 7 days prior to trial treatment. This exception does not include carcinomatous meningitis which is excluded regardless of clinical stability.

- Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy.

- 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 trial, starting with the pre-screening or screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of trial treatment.
- Has received prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agent.

- Has received a live vaccine within 30 days of planned start of study therapy. Note: Seasonal influenza vaccines for injection are generally inactivated flu vaccines and are allowed; however intranasal influenza vaccines (e.g., Flu-Mist®) are live attenuated vaccines, and are not allowed.
- Has undergone prior allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation any time.
