Brief Summary

This early phase I trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib in treating patients with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma that has spread to other places in the body (advanced/metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Lenvatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving pembrolizumab and lenvatinib may kill more tumor cells.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * The subject (or legally acceptable representative if applicable) provides written informed consent for the trial * Male and female subjects who are at least 18 years of age on day of signing informed consent with histologically and cytologically documented diagnosis as gastric or gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma * Has a documented, previously treated, advanced (unresectable and/or metastatic) gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma that is incurable and for which prior first-line or later-line standard of care (SOC) treatments have failed. Prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy included in initial treatment may not be considered first- or later-line SOC treatment unless such treatments were completed less than 12 months prior to the current tumor recurrence * Has submitted an evaluable tissue sample for biomarker analysis from a newly obtained irradiated. The tumor tissue submitted for analysis must be from a single tumor tissue specimen and of sufficient quantity and quali
