Exclusion criteria

A patient meeting any of the following criteria is not eligible to participate in this study:

5. Patients who have an active infection requiring systemic IV therapy within 14 days of prior to administration of ONC-392 or combined ONC-392 and Pembrolizumab.
6. Patients who have a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the study, interfere with the patient's participation for the full duration of the study, or is not in the best interest of the patient to participate, in the opinion of the treating Investigator.
