Exclusion Criteria:
* 1\. Has received prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or co-inhibitory T-cell receptor (e.g., CTLA-4, OX-40, CD137).
2\. Has received prior radical surgery, RT, or systemic therapy (including investigational drugs) for cervical cancer. Note: Conization for localized cervical tumors is allowed.

6\. Known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years.
Note: Participants with basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ, excluding carcinoma in situ of the bladder, that have undergone potentially curative therapy are not excluded.
7\. Has severe hypersensitivity (≥ Grade 3) to pembrolizumab and/or any of its excipients.
