What was measured

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The number of participants who experienced at least one AE was presented for the Pembrolizumab+XP/FP and Placebo+XP/FP treatment arms separately and in combination with the Pembrolizumab+FLOT and Placebo+FLOT Cohorts.

Analysis population: The analysis population consisted of all participants who received ≥1 dose of study treatment for the Pembrolizumab+XP/FP and Placebo+XP/FP treatment arms separately and in combination with the Pembrolizumab+FLOT and Placebo+FLOT Cohorts, as pre-specified per protocol.

Groups in this outcome

Pembrolizumab + XP/FP

XP=cisplatin+capecitabine and FP=cisplatin+5-fluorouracil. Neoadjuvant: Prior to surgery, participants received 3 cycles of pembrolizumab 200 mg via intravenous (IV) infusion on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle (Q3W) PLUS cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W and capecitabine 1000 mg/m\^2 via oral tablets twice each day (BID) on Days 1 to 14 of each 3-week cycle OR cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W and 5-fluorouracil (5FU) 800 mg/m\^2 via continuous IV infusion on Days 1 to 5 of each 3-week cycle. Adjuvant: 4 to 10 weeks post-surgery, participants received 3 cycles of pembrolizumab 200 mg via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W PLUS cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W and capecitabine 1000 mg/m\^2 via oral tablets BID on Days 1 to 14 of each 3-week cycle OR cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W and 5FU 800 mg/m\^2 via continuous IV infusion on Days 1 to 5 of each 3-week cycle, followed by pembrolizumab monotherapy 200 mg via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W for up to 11 additional cycles.

Placebo + XP/FP

Neoadjuvant: Prior to surgery, participants received 3 cycles of placebo (normal saline solution) via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W PLUS cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W and capecitabine 1000 mg/m\^2 via oral tablets BID on Days 1 to 14 of each 3-week cycle OR cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W and 5FU 800 mg/m\^2 via continuous IV infusion on Days 1 to 5 of each 3-week cycle. Adjuvant: 4 to 10 weeks post-surgery, participants received 3 cycles of placebo via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W PLUS cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W and capecitabine 1000 mg/m\^2 via oral tablets BID on Days 1 to 14 of each 3-week cycle OR cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W and 5FU 800 mg/m\^2 via continuous IV infusion on Days 1 to 5 of each 3-week cycle, followed by placebo monotherapy via IV infusion on Day 1 Q3W for up to 11 additional cycles.
