Inclusion Criteria
2. The subject is diagnosed pathologically or cytologically with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
3. According to the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer \[AJCC\], staging is metastatic III.B-IV NSCLC that cannot be surgically removed.
4. The subject with metastatic non-squamous carcinoma whose EGFR/ALK/ROS 1 tumor gene is the original type, or subject with squamous cell carcinoma whose EGFR/ALK tumor gene is the original type.
5. At least one measurable lesion per RECIST v 1.1 criteria.
6. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
7. The subject whose biomarker performance: The PD L1 performance detected by Dako 22C3 or Ventana SP263 and other third-level in vitro diagnostic medical devices (class III) must meet tumor proportion scores (TPS) ≥ 50%.
8. The life expectancy is not less than 3 months.
9. The subject whose liver and kidney functions must meet all of the following conditions:
* Liver function: aspartate aminotransferase (AST) value \< 2.5 x ULN, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) value \< 2.5 x ULN and total bilirubin (T-bilirubin) value \< 1.5 x ULN. For the subjects who have liver metastases, total bilirubin value should be \< 5 x ULN.
* Kidney function: Serum creatinine value \< 1.5 ULN. If subject's serum creatinine value is ≥ 1.5 x ULN, his/her creatinine clearance value should be \> 40 mL/min based on Cockcroft and Gault formula.
10. Subject, if female of child-bearing potential, must agree to avoid sexual intercourse or be willing to use 2 medically accepted methods of contraception (e.g., Intra-uterine device or contraceptives) during the study. 【The definition of infertile：(1) Being menopause for more than 1 year；(2) Surgery for permanent contraception (e.g., abdominal tubal sterilization, bilateral Salpingooophorectomy, and tubectomy)；(3) Congenital structural abnormalities.】
11. Subject, if male, agrees not to donate sperm, be willing to avoid sexual intercourse or use appropriate contraception method (e.g., using condom) during the study treatment period.
12. Subject is active and capable to communicate with site staff, willing to be in compliance with the following two items based on investigator's judgment.
1. To complete return visits and study examination per the study protocol.
2. To collect stool specimens at home, refrigerate and deliver the sample.
Exclusion Criteria
2. Presence of any other malignant tumor. Unless the subject had completed radical treatment without any disease recurrence for at least 3 years. (Those who have successfully undergone radical resection or have received possible curative treatments for basal cell carcinoma, superficial bladder cancer, squamous-cell carcinoma, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or other carcinoma in situ are not limited)
3. Presence of any autoimmune disease which requires systemic treatment within the past 2 years. Hormone replacement therapy (for example, insulin or physiological replacement of corticosteroid due to adrenal or pituitary disorders… etc.) is allowed and not considered as systemic treatment.
4. Have had any transplantation of allogeneic cell, tissue or solid organ.
5. History of known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

7. Subject has non-infectious pneumonia history which requires systemic steroids. Subject who currently have interstitial pneumonia or interstitial pneumonitis can join this study if investigator confirms subject's clinical condition is stable.
8. Presence of any severe cardiac dysfunction, Class III-IV of chronic heart failure based on New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Classification, which includes symptomatic coronary artery disease and severe ventricular arrhythmia; Presence of any myocardial infarction, unstable or poorly controlled angina within 6 months before subject screening visit (V0).
9. Have any gastrointestinal history or surgery which investigator believes may affect the absorption of the oral investigational product.
10. Enterocutaneous or non- enterocutaneous fistula which is defined as Grade 3 or above based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE, also known as Common Toxicity Criteria).
11. Currently presence of inflammatory bowel disease or gastric ulcer.
12. Have not yet recovered from major surgery or complications before subject screening visit(V0).
13. History of active tuberculosis (TB, Mycobacterium tuberculosis).
14. Presence of any mental disease or drug abuse disorder which may interfere with subject's ability for being compliant with study requirements.
15. Active infection which requires systemic treatment.
16. Allergies to soy products, severe allergies to antibody therapy, or known allergies or intolerances to any component of pembrolizumab.
17. Have received any biologic therapy within 3 weeks prior to the first dose of trial therapy.
18. Have received anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 drug therapy within 3 years before the screening visit (V0) or act on another drug treatment that stimulates signals or synergistically inhibits T cell receptors (e.g. CTLA-4 , OX 40, CD137).
19. Received radiotherapy within the 14 days before receiving the investigational drug, or received pulmonary radiotherapy\> 30 Gy within 6 months before receiving the investigational drug (the subject must recover from all radiation-related toxicities to grade 1 or below, without corticosteroid therapy and radiation pneumonia has never occurred).
20. Diagnosed with immunodeficiency or are receiving any form of immunosuppressive therapy, systemic steroids (allowed to use up to 10 mg Prednisone or equivalent steroids per day) within 7 days before receiving the investigational drug.
