Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Experimental: rrCLL Cohort - Participants with refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (rrCLL) received an infusion of pembrolizumab 200 mg followed by infusion of dinaciclib 7 mg/m\^2 on Cycle 1 Day 1, and infusion of dinaciclib 10 mg/m\^2 alone on Cycle 1 Day 8. Participants then received an infusion of pembrolizumab 200 mg followed by infusion of dinaciclib 14 mg/m\^2 on Cycles 2-35 Day 1 and infusion of dinaciclib 14 mg/m\^2 alone on Cycles 2-35 Day 8. Each cycle is 21 days.

Experimental: rrMM Cohort - Participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (rrMM) received an infusion of pembrolizumab 200 mg followed by infusion of dinaciclib 7 mg/m\^2 on Cycle 1 Day 1, and infusion of dinaciclib 10 mg/m\^2 alone on Cycle 1 Day 8. Participants then received an infusion of pembrolizumab 200 mg followed by infusion of dinaciclib 14 mg/m\^2 on Cycles 2-35 Day 1 and infusion of dinaciclib 14 mg/m\^2 alone on Cycles 2-35 Day 8. Each cycle is 21 days.
