The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether copanlisib in combination with rituximab is superior to placebo in combination with rituximab in prolonging progression free survival (PFS) in patients with relapsed iNHL who have received one or more lines of treatment, including rituximab and who either had a treatment-free interval of ≥ 12 months after completion of the last rituximab-containing treatment, or who are unwilling to receive chemotherapy/for whom chemotherapy is contraindicated on reason of age, comorbidities, and/or residual toxicity.
Copanlisib is supplied as lyophilized preparation in a 6 mL injection vial. The total amount of copanlisib per vial is 60 mg. The solution for IV infusions is obtained after reconstitution with normal saline solution. Dosing will be administered on Days 1, 8 and 15 of each 28-day cycle. Copanlisib will be administered before rituximab.
Placebo is supplied as lyophilized preparation in a 6 mL injection vial. The developed placebo lyophilisate is equivalent to the 60 mg copanlisib formulation, with regard to the composition of excipients and the instructions for reconstitution and dose preparation. Placebo dosing will be administered on Days 1, 8 and 15 of each 28-day cycle. Placebo will be administered before rituximab.
Rituximab dose 375 mg/m2 body surface weekly during Cycle 1 on Days 1, 8, 15 and 22, and then on Day 1 of Cycles 3, 5, 7 and 9.The solution for IV infusions is obtained after reconstitution of a calculated concentration of 1 to 4 mg/ml rituximab into an infusion bag containing sterile, pyrogen-free sodium chloride 9 mg/ml (0.9%) solution for injection or 5% D-Glucose in water.
