You can actually skip the `org-entry-get' as "The new state (a string
with a TODO keyword, or nil) is available in the Lisp variable
`state'"[1].

Another solution: use `org-trigger-hook' and `org-schedule':
,----
| (defvar dmj/org-pending-keywords '("PENDING")
| "List of keywords denoting pending state of an headline.")
|
| (defun dmj/org-remove-schedule-when-pending (plist)
| "Remove schedule when todo state changes to pending."
| (let ((type (plist-get plist :type))
| (to (plist-get plist :to)))
| (when (and (eq type 'todo-state-change)
| (member to dmj/org-pending-keywords))
| (org-schedule 'remove))))
