Clinical Trial Summary

Patients with relapsed or refractory follicular or marginal zone lymphoma who have received at least one prior line of therapy will receive - Copanlisib IV: day 1, 8, 15 every 28 days - Nivolumab IV: Cycle 1 days 1 and 15; then day 1 only - Rituximab IV: Cycle 1 days 1, 8, 15, 22; then day 1 (C2-6); then Q2 cycles (8-12)


Description:

Patients with relapsed/refractory lymphoma generally have few if any curative options and demonstrate poor response rates to standard salvage therapies. Novel regimens utilizing molecular targets are needed to improve outcomes in this patient population. While studies evaluating single agent small-molecule inhibitors have demonstrated activity in this setting, combinations of these drugs are generally thought to be more efficacious due to targeting separate mechanisms of action and decreased chance of developing resistance. The PD-1/PD-L1 axis is a molecular target that has been demonstrated to be up-regulated in several tumors including malignant lymphoma. Several pre-clinical studies have demonstrated the importance of this axis on clinical outcomes of patients afflicted with low grade lymphoma including FL. Targeting this axis with specific inhibitors would appear to be a rationale way to improve outcomes in patients afflicted with these diseases. PI3K inhibitors in addition to inhibiting signaling, impart changes in the immune cells in the tumor microenvironment and would appear to be a logical candidate to explore in combination with immunotherapy. Based on these preliminary data, we believe that we have justification for proceeding with our proposed phase I study to combine the PD-1 inhibitor, nivolumab, with the PI3K inhibitor, copanlisib, and the CD20 antibody, rituximab, in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular and marginal zone lymphoma. This work has the potential to provide a novel strategy to improve upon the clinical response noted in this patient population.

Exclusion Criteria: - Pregnant or breastfeeding women. NOTE: Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 7 days prior to study registration. If the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test will be required. NOTE: Breast milk cannot be stored for future use while the mother is being treated on study. - Diagnosis of follicular grade 3b, post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD), or presence of histologic transformation. - Subjects with LFT abnormalities at baseline (above values per inclusion criteria), history of cirrhotic liver morphology or alcoholic cirrhosis, subjects who use acetaminophen at doses in excess of 2 g every day and have evidence of compromised hepatic reserve. - Primary or metastatic CNS disease prior to study enrollment - Uncontrolled current illness, including, but not limited to ongoing or active infections, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, unstable cardiac arrhythmia, evidence of interstitial lung disease or active, noninfectious pneumonitis including symptomatic and/or pneumonitis requiring treatment and/or psychiatric illness or social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements. - History of inflammatory bowel disease i.e. Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis. - HIV infection. NOTE: HIV testing is required. - Active infection with Hepatitis B or C virus (defined as a positive Hepatitis B surface antigen/ positive Hepatitis C antibody or detectable viral load by PCR). Patients with positive antibody but negative viral loads will be eligible for study participation but will require appropriate prophylaxis. NOTE: Hepatitis B and C testing are required. - Screening rate-corrected (using Friderica's correction) QT interval (QTcF) must not be > 480 msec via a standard 12-lead ECG within 28 days prior to registration. - Concomitant therapy in the last 4 weeks of any of the following: cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunosuppressive agents, other investigational therapies, or chronic use of systemic corticosteroids (doses = 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent are permitted). - Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders within the past 3 years prior to study registration.
