during phase I dose escalation.
3. Untreated leptomeningeal or metastatic CNS disease; patients with treated disease may
be eligible if clinically stable for 4 weeks after radiation or surgery including
those with history of spinal cord compression that have received definitive treatment.
If patients are receiving steroids as adjunct for treatment of leptomeningeal disease
or metastatic CNS disease, dose should be stable for 4 weeks prior to day 1 of cycle
1.
4. Clinically significant, uncontrolled heart disease and/or recent events including any

angina, coronary artery bypass grafting, coronary angioplasty or stenting) or
symptomatic pericarditis within 6 months prior to screening
- History of documented congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association
functional classification III-IV)
- History of any cardiac arrhythmias, e.g., ventricular, supraventricular, nodal
arrhythmias, or conduction abnormality within 12 months of screening. Patients
with rate-controlled atrial fibrillation or flutter are permitted.
- QTcF > 470 msec on screening 12-lead ECG
- Documented cardiomyopathy
5. Clinically significant uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure > 150 mmHg
or diastolic pressure > 90 mmHg despite optimal medical management). For the purpose
of this protocol definition of uncontrolled hypertension is based on persistent (=72
hours) and symptomatic.
6. Arterial or venous thrombotic or embolic events such as cerebrovascular accident
(including transient ischemic attacks), deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism
within 6 months before the start of study medication. However, patients with a venous
thrombosis, including a pulmonary embolus, who have been on stable anticoagulation
(more than 1 month without bleeding on a stable dose) is permitted. Patients with
evidence or history of uncontrolled bleeding diathesis. Any hemorrhage or bleeding
event = CTCAE Grade 3 within 4 weeks prior to the start of study medication

200 cells/mm3 or detectable viral load is not allowed.
10. Hepatitis B (HBV) or hepatitis C (HCV). All patients must be screened for HBV and HCV
up to 28 days prior to study drug start using the routine hepatitis virus laboratorial
panel. Patients positive for HBsAg or HBcAb will be eligible if they are negative for
HBV-DNA. These patients should receive prophylactic antiviral therapy. Patients
positive for anti-HCV antibody will be eligible if they are negative for HCV-RNA.
11. Previous or concurrent history of malignancies within 5 years prior to study treatment
except for curatively treated cervical carcinoma in situ, non-melanoma skin cancer,
superficial bladder cancer (Ta [non-invasive tumor], Tis [carcinoma in situ] and T1

the formulation
13. Ongoing substance abuse, medical, psychological or social conditions that may
interfere with the patient's participation in the study or evaluation of the study
results.

significant trauma within 28 days of start drug.
15. Patients with severe psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance
with study requirements in the judgment of study investigator
16. Patient has a history of non-compliance to medical regimen or inability to grant
consent
17. Ongoing immunosuppressive therapy. Patients may be receiving up to 10mg/day of
prednisone.
18. Radiotherapy or immuno-/chemotherapy less than 2 weeks before start of treatment. A
wash-out period of 2 months from radiopharmaceuticals such as radium-223 and

investigator) within 28 days before start of treatment, or have not recovered from
major side effects; open biopsy within 7 days before start of treatment.
23. Anti-arrhythmic therapy for ventricular arrhythmias. Use of amiodarone and propafenone
for atrial fibrillation rate control is allowed.
24. Use of CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers. Copanlisib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4.
Therefore concomitant use of strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 (e.g., ketoconazole,
itraconazole, clarithromycin, darunavir, indinavir, lopinavir, mifepristone,
posaconazole, ombitasvir, idelalisib, cobicistat, atazanavir, ritonavir, indinavir,
nelfinavir and saquinavir) and inducers (apalutamide, carbamazepine, enzalutamide,
fosphenytoin, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, rifampin) is not allowed. Rucaparib
is a moderate inhibitor of CYP1A2 and a weak inhibitor of CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4
and no specific medications is contra-indicated but dose adjustment may be necessary
of concurrent medication
