This is a multi-centre, single arm phase 2 study of Pembrolizumab (Keytruda™ or MK-3475) in treatment naïve patients with poor prognosis carcinoma of unknown primary site (CUP). Participants will receive Pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for up to 24 months. Patients will be evaluated for response every 9 weeks. Patients with objective response to treatment and those with stable disease will continue to receive Pembrolizumab. Patients with tumour progression will be discontinued from the study. Patients with progressive disease (PD), but showing a clinical benefit, may continue on Pembrolizumab, as per the discretion of the responsible Qualified Investigator. Response will be evaluated as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) version 1.1
