| E.2 Objective of the trial |
| 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 alkylating agents, 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
• Safety and tolerability of copanlisib
The other objectives of this study are to evaluate:
- Pharmacokinetics
- Biomarkers
- Quality of life |
|
| E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
| E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Ability to understand and willingness to sign written ICF. Signed ICF must be obtained before any study specific procedure.

lymphoma/Waldenström macroglobulinemia (LPL/WM), -Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) (splenic, nodal, or extra-nodal)
3. Patients must have relapsed (recurrence after complete response or presented progression after partial response) after the last rituximab, rituximab biosimilars-, or anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (e.g. obinutuzumab) containing therapy (other previous treatment lines after
rituximab are allowed). A previous regimen is defined as one of following: at least 2 mths of single-agent therapy (less than 2 mths of therapy is allowed for patients who responded to single-agent rituximab, rituximab biosimilars, or anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody); at least 2 consecutive cycles of polychemotherapy; acceptable provided there is no
resistance. Patients with prior intolerance to PI3K inhibitors other than copanlisib are eligible.
4. Non-WM patients must have at least one bi-dimensionally measurable lesion (not been previously irradiated) according to Lugano Classification. For patients with splenic MZL this requirement may be
restricted to splenomegaly alone since that is usually the only manifestation of measurable disease.

period between signing of ICF and 12 mths (for WOCBP) and 5 mths (for men) after last administration of study treatment. A high FSH level in
postmenopausal range may be used to confirm a post-menopausal state
in women not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy. The investigator/a designated associate is requested to advise
the patient how to achieve highly effective birth control (failure rate of less than 1%), e.g. IUD, IUS, bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomized
partner and sexual abstinence. Use of condoms by male patients required unless female partner permanently sterile

OR • considered unfit to receive chemotherapy on reason of age,
concomitant morbidities, and/or residual toxicity from previous
treatments, unwillingness to receive chemotherapy. These patients must also have had a progression-free and treatment-free interval of at least 6 mths after completion of the last rituximab, rituximab biosimilars or anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody containing treatment. Patients in whom chemotherapy is contraindicated are defined by one of the following features: - Age ≥80 yrs, - Age <80 yrs and at least 1 of the following conditions: •at least 3 grade 3 CIRS-G comorbidities, OR •at least 1 grade 4 CIRS-G comorbidity (if compatible to participation in the study) |
