ABSTRACT: Purpose
Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with homologous recombination (HR) deficiency (HRD) is sensitive to PARP inhibitors (PARPi). PI3K inhibitors (PI3Ki) sensitize to PARPi by disrupting HR in preclinical models. This phase Ib/II study investigated copanlisib (Copa; pan-class I PI3Ki) and rucaparib (R).Patients and methods
Eligible patients had metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer treated with ≥1 androgen receptor inhibitor and taxanes. Phase I followed a standard 3 + 3 dose-escalation design (rucaparib 400-600 mg orally twice a day; Copa 45-60 mg i.v. on days 1, 8, and 15). Primary goal of phase I was to establish MTD and the recommended phase II dose. The primary endpoint of phase II was PSA50 response rate.Results
