Treatment: Drugs - Dacarbazine
Treatment: Drugs - Bleomycin
Treatment: Drugs - Etoposide
Treatment: Drugs - Cyclophosphamide
Treatment: Drugs - Vincristine
Treatment: Drugs - Procarbazine
Treatment: Drugs - Prednisone

Experimental: Pembrolizumab Monotherapy + Chemotherapy + Pembrolizumab Consolidation - Participants receive pembrolizumab monotherapy followed by chemotherapy with doxorubicin in combination with vinblastine \& dacarbazine (AVD) or chemotherapy with escalated bleomycin in combination with etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, \& prednisone (escBEACOPP) followed by pembrolizumab consolidation.

All participants receive pembrolizumab monotherapy intravenous (IV) for 3 cycles (cycle length = 3 weeks (wks); up to 9 wks). All participants receive AVD IV for 2 cycles (cycle length = 4 wks; up to 8 wks) after Positron Emission Tomography (PET) 2. Participants who are PET 3 -ve, or +ve \& age = 60 years, receive up to 4 additional cycles of AVD IV (cycle length = 4 wks, up to 16 wks), or up to 4 cycles of escBEACOPP IV if PET 3 +ve, age \<60 years; cycle length = 3 wks; up to 12 wks. All participants receive pembrolizumab consolidation IV for 4 cycles (cycle length = 6 wks; up to 24 wks). Total treatment duration is up to 57 wks.


Treatment: Other: Pembrolizumab

Treatment: Drugs: Dacarbazine
375 mg/m\^2 IV on Days 1 and 15 of each 4-week cycle for 2 cycles after PET2 (all participants) and up to 4 additional cycles after PET3 (participants who are PET3 -ve, or +ve \& =60 years of age).

Treatment: Drugs: Bleomycin
10 units/m\^2 IV administered on Day 8 of each 3-week cycle for up to 4 cycles after PET3 (participants who are PET3 +ve \& \<60 years of age).

Treatment: Drugs: Etoposide
200 mg/m\^2 IV administered on Days 1-3 of each 3-week cycle for up to 4 cycles after PET3 (participants who are PET3 +ve \& \<60 years of age).
