E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is:
- 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. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objectives of this study are to evaluate:
• The following characteristics of disease-related symptoms: “time to deterioration” and “time to improvement”
• Other radiological and clinical indicators of treatment efficacy

The other objectives of this study are to evaluate:
- Pharmacokinetics
- Biomarkers
- Quality of life |

For each participating EU country, the end of the study according to the EU Clinical Trial Directive will be reached when the LVLS for all centers in the respective country has occurred.
The end of study as a whole will be reached as soon as the last visit of the last patient has been reached in all participating countries (EU and non-EU).
The end of study notification to Health Authorities will be based on the completion of the collection of survival data. |
