Copanlisib synergizes with conventional and targeted agents including venetoclax in B- and T-cell lymphoma models.

ABSTRACT: Copanlisib is a pan-class I phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor with preferred activity toward PI3Kα and PI3Kδ. Despite the clear overall clinical benefit, the number of patients achieving complete remissions with the single agent is relatively low, a problem shared by the vast majority of targeted agents. Here, we searched for novel copanlisib-based combinations. Copanlisib was tested as a single agent, in combination with an additional 17 drugs in 26 cell lines derived from mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), and T-cell lymphomas. In vivo experiments, transcriptome analyses, and immunoblotting experiments were also performed. Copanlisib as a single agent showed in vitro dose-dependent antitumor activity in the vast majority of the models. Combination screenin
