INCLUSION CRITERIA: 1. Patient must have signed a written informed consent form prior to any study specific procedures 2. Histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced (stage IIIB/IIIC/IV), squamous or non-squamous NSCLC 3. NSCLC patients eligible for treatment with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy according to the European Marketing Authorization: 1. squamous: in combination with carboplatin and either paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel 2. non squamous with no EGFR or ALK positive mutations: in combination with pemetrexed and a platinum based chemotherapy 4. Patient ≥18 of age 5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 - 1 6. Life expectancy \>3 months 7. Measurable lesion as assessed by RECIST version 1.1 8. Metastases and/or primary tumour eligible for 3 dimensional conventional radiotherapy (3D-CRT) or stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) in terms of dose constraints at organ at risk (according to QUANTEC review) 9. Patients must have adequate organ function defined by the following laboratory results obtained within 14 days prior to the first study treatment: 1. absolute neutrophil count of ≥1 500 /mm³ 2. platelets ≥ 100 000/mm³ 3. haemoglobin \>9 g/dL (transfusions allowed) 4. creatinine clearance \>60 mL/min 5. bilirubin ≤1.5 X upper limit of normal (ULN) (unless Gilbert's syndrome where 3 X ULN is permitted) 6. serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤2.5 X ULN (unless documented liver metastasis where ≤5 X ULN is permitted) 7. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤2.5 X ULN (unless documented bone or liver metastasis where ≤5 X ULN is permitted) 8. International normalized ratio (INR), prothrombin (PT), and prothrombin time (PTT) ≤1.5 X ULN (unless the subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy) 10.

Patients affiliated to the social security system (or equivalent) 12. Patient is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits, and examinations including follow-up NON-INCLUSION CRITERIA: 1. Non-squamous NSCLC with targetable tumor mutations, activating EGFR mutations or ALK translocation Note: documentation of these mutation for non-squamous histology is mandatory as standard of care 2. Stage IIIB/IIIC NSCLC patient eligible to curative (thoracic radiotherapy or surgery) treatments in first line treatment 3. Prior therapy with T-cell costimulation or checkpoint-targeted agents Note: Stage I-III NSCLC who previously received single-agent anti-PD(L)1 immunotherapy and ultimately develop metastases remain eligible (minimal immunotherapy washout period of 3 months) 4. Clinical need of radiotherapy (e.g.: whole brain irradiation, painful metastasis, bleeding, compressive metastases) 5. Irradiation within 2 months before inclusion 6. Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis, or metastases with indistinct borders making targeting not feasible 7. Patient with evidence of active (presence of symptoms or requiring steroid treatment) central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. Patient with brain metastasis can be included if asymptomatic and not requiring steroids 8. Metastases located within 3 cm of the previously irradiated structures (EQD2doses): 1. Spinal cord previously irradiated to \>40 Gy; 2. Brachial plexus previously irradiated to \>50 Gy; 3. Small intestine, large intestine, or stomach previously irradiated to \>45 Gy; 4.

Patient who was administered a live, attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to enrolment 17. Patient with any other disease or illness that requires hospitalisation or is incompatible with the study treatment are not eligible. Patient unable to comply with study obligations for geographic, social, or physical reasons, or who is unable to understand the purpose and procedures of the study 18. Patient who have taken any investigational medicinal product or have used an investigational device within 30 days of inclusion 19. Pregnant or breast feeding woman 20.
