Has measurable disease as defined by RECIST 1.1, with at least one lesion being appropriate for selection as a target lesion, as determined by local site investigator/radiology review. 6. Has not received prior treatment (chemotherapy, targeted therapy or radiotherapy) for their Stage III NSCLC. 7. Has provided tumor tissue sample (tissue biopsy [core, incisional, or excisional]). FFPE blocks are preferred to slides. Newly obtained tumor sample is highly preferred over archival tissue and should be obtained prior to the thoracic imaging at screening. 8. Has a performance status of 0 or 1 on the ECOG Performance Status assessed within 7 days prior to the first administration of study intervention. 9. Has a life expectancy of at least 6 months. 10. Has adequate PFT defined as a FEV1 >50% of predicted normal volume and the carbon monoxide lung diffusing capacity (DLCO) >40% of predicted normal value. Participants for whom DLCO measurements are not available will be deemed to have adequate oxygen transfer if pulse oximetry (O2 saturation) is determined to be ≥90% on room air. 11. Has adequate organ function; all screening laboratory tests should be performed within 10 days prior to initiation of study intervention. 12. Participants are at least 18 years of age on the day of providing informed consent. 13.Male participants are eligible to participate if they agree to the following during the intervention period and for at least the time needed to eliminate each study intervention after the last dose of study intervention. The length of time required to continue contraception for each study intervention is as follows: -Olaparib and platinum doublet: 90 days Refrain from donating sperm PLUS either: -Be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long term and persistent basis) and agree to remain abstinent OR -Must agree to use contraception as detailed below: Agree to use a male condom plus partner use of an additional contraceptive method when having penile-vaginal intercourse with a WOCBP who is not currently pregnant. 14. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: -is not a WOCBP OR •Is a WOCBP and: •Uses a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), with low user dependency, or be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long-term and persistent basis), during the intervention period and for at least the time needed to eliminate each study intervention after the last dose of study intervention and agrees not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) to others or freeze/store for her own use for the purpose of reproduction during this period. The length of time required to continue contraception for each study intervention is as follows: •Pembrolizumab: 120 days •Olaparib, platinum doublet, and radiotherapy: 180 days The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (ie, noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. •Has a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test ([urine or serum] as required by local regulations) within 24 hours for urine or within 72 hours for serum before the first dose of study intervention. If a urine test cannot be confirmed as negative (eg, an ambiguous result), a serum pregnancy test is required. In such cases, the participant must be excluded from participation if the serum pregnancy result is positive. •Has had her medical history, menstrual history, and recent sexual activity reviewed by the investigator to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with an early undetected pregnancy. 15. Has (or legally acceptable representative if applicable) provided documented informed consent/assent for the study. The participant may also provide consent/assent for FBR. However, the participant may participate in the main trial without participating in FBR. |
