Archival tumour tissue sample or newly obtained core, incisional, or excisional biopsy of a tumour lesion not previously irradiated has been provided. Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks are preferred to slides. Newly obtained biopsies are preferred to archived tissue.

     Note: Participants should remain on anti-viral therapy throughout study intervention and follow local guidelines for HBV anti-viral therapy post completion of study intervention.

     Hepatitis B screening tests are not required unless:

     Known history of HBV infection As mandated by local health authority 12.Participants with a history of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are eligible if HCV viral load is undetectable at screening.

     Note: Participants must have completed curative anti-viral therapy at least 4 weeks prior to randomization.

     Hepatitis C screening tests are not required unless:

     Known history of HCV infection As mandated by local health authority 13.HIV-infected participants must have well-controlled HIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART), defined as:

  <!-- -->

  1. Participants on ART must have a CD4+ T-cell count ≥350 cells/mm3 at the time of screening.
  2. Participants on ART must have achieved and maintained virologic suppression defined as confirmed HIV RNA level below 50 or the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) (below the limit of detection) using the locally available assay at the time of screening and for at least 12 weeks before screening
  3. It is advised that participants must not have had any AIDS-defining opportunistic infections within the past 12 months.
  4. Participants on ART must have been on a stable regimen, without changes in drugs or dose modification, for at least 4 weeks before study entry (Day 1) and agree to continue ART throughout the stud

Exclusion Criteria:

• 1. Has evidence of metastatic disease on screening imaging. 2. Has received prior therapy with an anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or co-inhibitory T-cell receptor (e.g., CTLA-4, OX-40, CD137).

  3. Has received prior systemic anti-cancer therapy including investigational agents within 3 years prior to randomization.

  4. Known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years. Note: Participants with basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ, excluding carcinoma in situ of the bladder, that have undergone potentially curative therapy are not excluded.

Participants with low-risk early-stage prostate cancer either treated with definitive intent or untreated in active surveillance with stable disease are not excluded.

5. Has received a live vaccine or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of study intervention. Administration of killed vaccines is allowed. COVID-19 and influenza vaccinations are allowed provided they are not live vaccines 6. Has received an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks prior to study intervention administration.

7. Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (in dosing exceeding 10 mg daily of prednisone equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug 8. Has severe hypersensitivity (≥Grade 3) to pembrolizumab and/or any of its excipients, and/or lenvatinib, and/or belzutifan.

9. Has active autoimmune disease that has required immunosuppressive systemic treatment in the past 2 years except replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid).

10.Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease that required steroids or has current pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease11.Has any of the following:

1. A pulse oximeter reading \<92% at rest, or

1. Note: Participants with proteinuria ≥2+ (≥100 mg/dL) on urine dipstick testing (urinalysis) will undergo 24-hour urine collection for quantitative assessment of proteinuria.

2. Note: Urine dipstick is the preferred method for testing urinary protein, however, urinalysis may be used if the use of urine dipsticks is not feasible.

   16.Has had major surgery within 3 weeks prior to first dose of study interventions.
