Summary

This trial is studying the best dose and side effects of niraparib and copanlisib for treating patients with endometrial, ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with recurrent endometrial, ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. Participants must have had any number of prior chemotherapies and a life expectancy of at least 3 months. They should be able to perform daily activities with little assistance (ECOG status 0-1), not be pregnant, use effective contraception, and meet certain health criteria.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of two drugs: Niraparib and Copanlisib. It aims to find the best dose while observing side effects in patients whose cancer has returned. These drugs are believed to block enzymes that tumor cells need for growth.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include issues related to blocking cell growth which may affect normal cells as well as cancerous ones. This can lead to fatigue, digestive problems, changes in blood counts or liver function tests among others.
