for advanced (metastatic and/or unresectable) solid tumor. Participant must also not
have been refractory to prior platinum-containing therapy.

- Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of either 0 or 1,

=90 days (3 months) after the last dose of olaparib and refrain from donating sperm
during this period.

- Female participants must not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and =1 of the following
conditions applies: Is not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) OR Is a WOCBP who
agrees to use contraception during the treatment period and for =120 days (3 months)
after the last dose of pembrolizumab and 180 days (6 months) after the last dose of
olaparib, has a highly sensitive pregnancy test within 24 hours for urine or within 72
hours for serum before the first dose of study intervention, and abstains from
breastfeeding during the study intervention period and for at least 120 days after the

T-cell receptor (e.g. cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 [CTLA-4], OX 40
[Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 4 (TNFRSF4)], CD137 [tumor
necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 9 (TNFRSF9)]).

- Has received prior therapy with olaparib or with any other polyadenosine 5'
diphosphoribose (poly[ADP ribose]) polymerization (PARP) inhibitor.

- Is currently receiving either strong inhibitors of cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 (e.g.
itraconazole, telithromycin, clarithromycin, protease inhibitors boosted with
ritonavir or cobicistat, indinavir, saquinavir, nelfinavir, boceprevir, telaprevir) or
moderate inhibitors of CYP3A4 (e.g. ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, diltiazem,
fluconazole, verapamil) that cannot be discontinued for the duration of the study. The
required washout period prior to starting olaparib is 2 weeks.

- Is currently receiving either strong inducers of CYP3A4 (phenobarbital, enzalutamide,
phenytoin, rifampicin, rifabutin, rifapentine, carbamazepine, nevirapine and St John's
Wort) or moderate inducers of CYP3A4 (e.g. bosentan, efavirenz, modafinil) that cannot
