Ivosidenib
Indications
Ivosidenib is used for:
Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Adult Dose
Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
Indicated for treatment of newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with a susceptible isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) mutation as detected by an FDA-approved test in adults who are ?75 years old or who have comorbidities that preclude use of intensive induction chemotherapy
500 mg PO qDay
Continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity; treat for a minimum of 6 months to allow time for clinical response
Relapsed or refractory AML
Indicated for patients with relapsed or refractory AML with a susceptible IDH1 mutation as detected by an FDA-approved test
500 mg PO qDay
Continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity; treat for a minimum of 6 months to allow time for clinical response
Hepatic impairment
Mild to moderate (Child- Pugh A or B): No clinically meaningful effects on the pharmacokinetics
Severe (Child-Pugh C): Unknown
Pre-existing severe hepatic impairment: Consider risks and potential benefits before initiating treatment
Child Dose
Renal Dose
Renal impairment
Mild or moderate (eGFR ?30 mL/min/1.73 m²): No clinically meaningful effects on the pharmacokinetics
Severe (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m²) or patients requiring dialysis: Unknown
Administration
Administer with or without food
Do not administer with high-fat; increases ivosidenib concentration and possibly risk of adverse effects
Swallow tablets whole; do not split or crush
Administer orally about the same time each day
Contra Indications
Precautions
In the clinical trial, patients with relapsed or refractory AML treated with ivosidenib experienced differentiation syndrome
Patients can develop QT (QTc) prolongation and ventricular arrhythmias; 9% of 258 patients treated with ivosidenib in clinical trials were found to have a QTc interval >500 msec and 14% had a QTc >60 msec; in patients with congenital long QTc syndrome, congestive heart failure, electrolyte abnormalities, or those who are taking medications known to prolong the QTc interval, more frequent monitoring may be necessary
Guillain-Barré syndrome occurred in the clinical study; monitor for onset of new signs or symptoms of motor and/or sensory neuropathy such as unilateral or bilateral weakness, sensory alterations, paresthesias, or difficulty breathing
Pregnancy-Lactation
Pregnancy
Based on animal embryo-fetal toxicity studies, fetal harm may occur when administered to a pregnant woman
There are no available data on use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage
If this drug is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, advise the patient of the potential risk to a fetus
Animal data
In animal embryo-fetal toxicity studies, oral administration of ivosidenib to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis was associated with embryo-fetal mortality and alterations to growth starting at 2 times the steady state clinical exposure based on the AUC at the recommended human dose
Lactation
There are no data on the presence of ivosidenib or its metabolites in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production Because many drugs are excreted in human milk and because of the potential for adverse reactions in breastfed children, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment and for at least 1 month after the last dose
Interactions
Coadministration with strong CYP3A4 inducers decreased ivosidenib plasma concentrations; avoid use
Strong to moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors
Coadministration with strong or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors increased ivosidenib plasma concentrations; increased ivosidenib plasma concentrations may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation
Avoid use; if ivosidenib must be coadministered, decrease dose
Ivosidenib induces CYP3A4 and may induce CYP2C9
Coadministration decrease concentrations of sensitive CYP3A4 substrates and may decrease concentrations of sensitive CYP2C9 substrates
Use alternant therapies that are not sensitive CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 substrates during treatment
Do not administer with itraconazole or ketoconazole (CYP3A4 substrates) owing to expected loss of antifungal efficacy
May decrease efficacy of hormonal contraceptives owing to lower systemic exposure; consider other contraception methods
If coadministration of sensitive CYP3A4 or CYP2C9 substrates are unavoidable, monitor for loss of therapeutic effect of these drugs

Mechanism of Action
IDH1 inhibitor; inhibits selected IDH1 R132 mutants at much lower concentrations than wild-type IDH1 in vitro
Inhibition of mutated IDH1 enzyme by ivosidenib led to decreased 2-HG levels and induced myeloid differentiation in vitro and in vivo in mouse xenograft models of IDH1-mutated AML
In blood samples from patients with AML with mutated IDH1, ivosidenib decreased 2-HG levels ex vivo, reduced blast counts, and increased percentages of mature myeloid cells
