Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Number of Participants Experiencing a Dose Limiting Toxicity	Number of participants experiencing a Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) in each dose level. DLT is defined as any of the following study drug-related toxicities occurring during the first cycle of study drug on study: Grade 4 anemia; Grade = 3 neutropenia lasting = 14 days; Grade = 3 febrile neutropenia; Grade 4 thrombocytopenia, or Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with clinically significant bleeding; Treatment-related = grade 4 AEs, except transient hyperglycemia; Grade = 3 Pneumonitis or recurrent Grade 2 pneumonitis; Grade = 3 Nephritis; Grade = 3 elevated AST or ALT; Grade = 2 eye pain or reduction of visual acuity that does not respond to topical therapy, improve to = grade 1 within 2 weeks of topical therapy, or requires systemic therapy; Any other Grade = 3 toxicities (with certain exceptions for transient AEs or asymptomatic labs)	28 days
Primary	6-month Objective Response Rate (ORR) of Patients Treated With Copanlisib and Nivolumab	The proportion of subjects with partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1). Per RECIST 1.1, complete response is defined as disappearance of all target lesions, and partial response is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions. Lesions are assessed by CT or MRI.	6-months
Secondary	Disease Control Rate (DCR) Status at 6 Months.	Percentage of participants achieving stable disease (SD) or better (SD + PR + CR).; Per RECIST 1.1, complete response is defined as disappearance of all target lesions, partial response is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, stable disease occurs when there is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (at least 20% increase). Lesions are assessed by CT or MRI.	6-months
Secondary	Duration of Response (DOR)	Number of months from the first documentation of a response to date of disease progression.	2 years
Secondary	Progression Free Survival (PFS)	Number of months from treatment to disease progression (PD)	2 years
Secondary	Overall Survival (OS)	Number of months from the date of first treatment until death or end of follow-up.	2 years
Secondary	Number of Participants Experiencing Study Drug-related Toxicities	Number of participants experiencing study drug-related adverse events Grade 3 or higher as defined by CTCAE v5.0.	2 years
