Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Number of Participants Reporting One or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Based on TEAEs Severity
From first dose of study drug administration up to 32 months

AE: any untoward medical occurrence in participants administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. TEAE: any AE either reported for the first time or worsening of a pre-existing event after the first dose of study drug is considered treatment emergent. Severity grade is defined by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 5.0. Grade 1: Mild (asymptomatic/mild symptoms; clinical/diagnostic observations only; intervention not indicated); Grade 2: Moderate (minimal, local/noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age-appropriate instrumental activities of daily living \[ADL\]); Grade 3: Severe (severe/medically significant but not immediately life-threatening hospitalization/prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care ADL); Grade 4: Life-threatening consequences, urgent intervention indicated; Grade 5: Death related to AE.

Number of Participants With Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
During Cycle 1 (cycle length= 21 days)

A DLT was defined as any TEAE that occurred during Cycle 1 and was considered by investigator to be at least possibly related to TAK-676 in combination with pembrolizumab. TEAEs meeting DLT definitions occurring in later cycles were considered in the determination of recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of TAK-676. DLTs were assessed based on NCI CTCAE version 5.0.

Number of Participants Reporting One or More Treatment Emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs)
From first dose of study drug administration up to 32 months

TEAE: any AE either reported for the first time or worsening of a pre-existing event after the first dose of study drug is considered treatment emergent. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that: 1) results in death, 2) is life-threatening, 3) requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, 4) results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, 5) leads to a congenital anomaly/birth defect in the offspring of the participant or 6) is a medically important event that satisfies any of the following: a) may require intervention to prevent items 1 through 5 above. b) may expose the participant to danger, even though the event is not immediately life threatening or fatal or does not result in hospitalization

Number of Participants With One or More TEAEs Leading to Dose Modifications
From first dose of study drug administration up to 32 months

TEAE: Any AE either reported for the first time or worsening of a pre-existing event after the first dose of study drug is considered treatment emergent.

Number of Participants With One or More TEAEs Leading to Treatment Discontinuation
From first dose of study drug administration up to 32 months

TEAE: Any AE either reported for the first time or worsening of a pre-existing event after the first dose of study drug is considered treatment emergent.

Combination Dose Escalation Phase: Radiation + Pembrolizumab + TAK-676EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive image-guided radiation therapy between Day -8 and Day -2. Participants will then receive pembrolizumab 200 milligram (mg), infusion, intravenously (IV), once on Day 1 of Cycle 1 and then every 3 weeks in each 21-day treatment cycle, followed by TAK-676 infusion with escalating doses (0.2 mg and above), IV, once on Days 1, 8, 15 in each 21-day treatment cycle until disease progression, intolerance to pembrolizumab or TAK-676 or withdrawal of consent, whichever occurs first.
