Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Change Rate of Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) < Nadir + 2 ng/mL From First Day of Treatment to 15 Months (Cohort 2)
Start of treatment and 15 months (approx. 15 months total)

Only participants in cohort 2, who achieve testosterone recovery to non-castrate levels (\>150 ng/dL) at 15 months, will be analyzed for the primary endpoint. The rate of PSA \< nadir + 2 ng/mL at 15 months from the start of radiotherapy and cycle 1, day 1 of pembrolizumab, among participants whose testosterone recovers to non-castrate levels (\>150 ng/dL). The point estimate of the rate of PSA \< nadir + 2 ng/mL will be obtained with its 95% confidence interval for participants by arm in cohort 2. All participants who receive any part of a dose of RT, SD-101 or pembrolizumab will be analyzed for efficacy.

Number of Participants With Treatment-related Adverse Events
Up to 15 months

Adverse events occurring on study will be summarized for all participants that received study intervention (including pembrolizumab, SD-101, SBRT to prostate, SBRT to oligometastatic sites) by maximum toxicity grade across study arms.

Secondary Endpoints
Rate of Testosterone-PSA Uncoupling (Cohort 2)
Up to 15 months
Median Time to Clinical Progression (Cohort 2)
Up to 3 years
Median Progression-free Survival (PFS) (Cohort 2)
Up to 3 years
