A Study of Copanlisib Combined With Rucaparib in Patients With Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a single arm Phase Ib/II, open label, safety, pharmacokinetic and efficacy clinical study in adult patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Patients will be treated with the combination of copanlisib and rucaparib for as long as the patient does not have clinically significant progressive disease and/or unacceptable toxicity and/or as long as the investigator deems that the patient is benefiting from treatment. Treatment may also be stopped if the patient withdraws consent, or study termination occurs.

-
Anti-arrhythmic therapy for ventricular arrhythmias. Use of amiodarone and propafenone for atrial fibrillation rate control is allowed.
-
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
