Copanlisib and Ibrutinib in Treating Patients with Recurrent or Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of copanlisib and ibrutinib combination and to see how well they work in treating patients with mantle cell lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Copanlisib and ibrutinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Exclusion Criteria
- Patient has a history of non-compliance to medical regimen or inability to grant consent.
- Patient is concurrently using other approved or investigational antineoplastic agent with the exception of BTK or PI3K inhibitors in patients who had these agents as the last line of treatment * Patients on BTK or PI3K inhibitors will be continued on therapy as they transition to protocol therapy.
- Patient has not recovered to grade 1 or better (except alopecia) from related side effects of any prior antineoplastic therapy.
- Patient has had major surgery or a wound that has not fully healed within 4 weeks of starting study drugs.
- Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 2 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 2 weeks earlier.
- Patients who have undergone an allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
- Patient has active or history of central nervous system (CNS) disease or meningeal involvement.
- Patient has history of clinically significant interstitial lung disease and/or lung disease that severely impairs lung function (as judged by the investigator).
- Patient has history of stroke or intracranial hemorrhage =< 6 months from starting study drugs.
- Patient has impairment of gastrointestinal (GI) function or GI disease that may significantly alter the absorption of study drug (e.g., ulcerative diseases, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, or small bowel resection).
- Patient has clinically significant cardiovascular disease such as uncontrolled or symptomatic arrhythmias, congestive heart failure, or myocardial infarction within 6 months of screening, or any class 3 (moderate) or class 4 (severe) cardiac disease as defined by the New York Heart Association Functional Classification, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 50% as determined by multiple gated acquisition (MUGA) scan or echocardiogram (ECHO), unstable angina pectoris, symptomatic pericarditis, corrected QT interval by Fridericia's correction formula (QTcF) > 480 msec on the screening electrocardiography (ECG) (using the QTcF formula).
- Patient has a concurrent active malignancy. Malignancies treated with a curative intent with an expected life expectancy >= 5 years or a non-competing life expectancy risk are eligible (i.e. adequately treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma, non-melanomatous skin cancer, early stage breast cancer, treated prostate cancer or any other cancer from which the patient has been disease free for >= 3 years).
- Patient with known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), or any uncontrolled active systemic infection.
- Patient has cytomegalovirus (CMV) viremia (peripheral blood CMV polymerase chain reaction [PCR] positive), acute viral hepatitis (typically defined by elevated AST/ALT), or a history of chronic or active hepatitis B virus [HBV] or hepatitis C virus [HCV] infection. HBV infection is defined as having hepatitis B serum antigen (HBsAg) and/or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) positive test with concurrent detectable HBV DNA levels. HCV infection is defined as detectable HCV RNA levels.
- Patient requires treatment with a strong or moderate cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 inhibitors, and inducers, and the treatment cannot be discontinued or switched to a different medication prior to starting study drug. Moderate and strong CYP modulators (inducers and inhibitors) should have a washout period of at least 5-6 half-lives before initiating ibrutinib or copanlisib.
- Patients with known bleeding diathesis (e.g. von Willebrand ‘s disease) or hemophilia.
- Patient is currently receiving warfarin or other vitamin K antagonist. Therapy with heparin, low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), or fondaparinux is allowed.
- Patients with Child Pugh class B or C hepatic cirrhosis.
- Patients with any life threatening illness, medical condition or organ system dysfunction that in the opinion of the investigator could compromise the subject’s safety, interfere with absorption of metabolism of study drugs or put the study outcomes at undue risk.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase II dose of copanlisib and ibrutinib combination. (Phase I)
II. Determine complete response rate based on best response by 6 months for combination of copanlisib and ibrutinib. (Phase II)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Assess the efficacy as defined by overall response rate (best response within 1 year).
II. Assess the disease control rate (best stable disease, partial responses and complete response within 1 year).
III. Assess the duration of response for this population.
IV. Assess the event free survival for this population.
V. Assess the progression free survival.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the depth of response via targeted sequencing of peripheral blood circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) with combination targeted therapy.
II. Correlate disease status, duration of response, progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) with sequentially measured circulating tumor (ct)DNA.
III. Determine the pharmacokinetics of copanlisib and ibrutinib (phase I dose escalation only).
OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study followed by a phase II study.
Patients receive copanlisib intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on days 1, 8, and 15, and ibrutinib orally (PO) once daily (QD). Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 36 cycles not exceeding 36 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving complete response (CR) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Lymphoma (RECIL) criteria prior to completion of 6 cycles of combination copanlisib/ibrutinib may continue receiving copanlisib for 2 additional cycles before discontinuing. Copanlisib may then be restarted upon radiographic or pathologic progression of disease.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up within 7 days for end of treatment visit, and within 37 days for any adverse events.
