Patients treated with ivosidenib have experienced symptoms of differentiation syndrome, which can be fatal. Symptoms may include fever, dyspnea, hypoxia, pulmonary infiltrates, pleural or pericardial effusions, rapid weight gain or peripheral edema, hypotension, and hepatic, renal, or multi-organ dysfunction. If differentiation syndrome is suspected, initiate corticosteroid therapy and hemodynamic monitoring until symptom resolution.
Dosage guidance:
Clinical considerations: Select patients for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), cholangiocarcinoma, and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) based on the presence of IDH1 mutations.
Acute myeloid leukemia, newly diagnosed, IDH1 mutated (in adults ≥75 years of age and/or with comorbidities precluding the use of intensive induction chemotherapy):
Single-agent therapy: Oral: 500 mg once daily (Ref); continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. In patients without disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, continue for a minimum of 6 months to allow time for clinical response.
In combination with azacitidine: Oral: 500 mg once daily (in combination with azacitidine) beginning on day 1 of each 28-day cycle until relapse, disease progression, or unacceptable toxicity (Ref). In patients without disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, continue for a minimum of 6 months to allow time for clinical response. Refer to protocol for additional details.
Acute myeloid leukemia, relapsed/refractory, IDH1 mutated: Oral: 500 mg once daily (Ref); continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. In patients without disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, continue for a minimum of 6 months to allow time for clinical response.
Cholangiocarcinoma, locally advanced or metastatic, previously treated, IDH1 mutated: Oral: 500 mg once daily; continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (Ref).
Myelodysplastic syndromes, relapsed or refractory, IDH1 mutated : Oral: 500 mg once daily; continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. In patients without disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, continue for a minimum of 6 months to allow time for clinical response.
Missed dose: If a dose is missed or not administered at the usual time, administer the dose as soon as possible and at least 12 hours prior to the next scheduled dose and return to the normal administration schedule the following day; do not administer 2 doses within 12 hours. If a dose is vomited, do not administer a replacement dose (wait until the next scheduled dose is due).
Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.
Note: Kidney function may be estimated using the MDRD formula.
eGFR ≥30 mL/minute/1.73 m2: No dosage adjustment necessary.
eGFR <30 mL/minute/1.73 m2: There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling (pharmacokinetics are unknown); consider risks versus potential benefits in patients with preexisting severe kidney impairment.
End-stage kidney disease requiring dialysis: There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling (pharmacokinetics are unknown); consider risks versus potential benefits in patients with preexisting end-stage kidney disease requiring dialysis.
Hepatic impairment prior to treatment initiation:
Mild or moderate impairment (Child-Turcotte-Pugh class A or B): No dosage adjustment necessary.
Severe impairment (Child-Turcotte-Pugh class C): There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling (pharmacokinetics are unknown); consider risks versus potential benefits in patients with preexisting severe hepatic impairment.

Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Differentiation syndrome: Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) treated with ivosidenib have experienced symptoms of differentiation syndrome. Differentiation syndrome is associated with rapid proliferation and differentiation of myeloid cells; may be life-threatening or fatal. Symptoms include noninfectious leukocytosis, peripheral edema, fever, dyspnea, pleural effusion, hypotension, hypoxia, pulmonary infiltrates, pulmonary edema, pneumonitis, pericardial effusions, rash, fluid overload, rapid weight gain, tumor lysis syndrome, hepatic, renal, or multiorgan dysfunction, and/or increased serum creatinine. Of patients who experienced differentiation syndrome, most recovered after corticosteroid treatment or ivosidenib treatment interruption. The onset of differentiation syndrome occurred from 1 day up to 3 months after ivosidenib treatment initiation; may occur with or without concomitant leukocytosis.
• Guillain-Barré syndrome: Guillain-Barré syndrome occurred in a small number of patients treated with ivosidenib.
• QT prolongation: Patients treated with ivosidenib may develop QT (QTc) prolongation and ventricular arrhythmias; some patients were found to have a QTc interval >500 msec and/or an increase from baseline QTc of >60 msec. Ventricular fibrillation (attributed to ivosidenib) was observed (case report). Patients with a baseline QTc of ≥450 or ≥470 msec (refer to specific trial for exclusion criteria) or with a history of long QT syndrome, uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease, or arrhythmic events (eg, heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of long QT syndrome) were excluded from clinical studies. Concomitant use of ivosidenib with medications known to prolong the QTc interval (eg, anti-arrhythmics, fluoroquinolones, triazole anti-fungals, 5-HT3 receptor antagonists) and CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation.

Isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) mutation status prior to therapy initiation. For acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), monitor blood counts and serum chemistries (prior to therapy initiation, at least weekly for the first month, then every other week for the second month, then monthly for the duration of therapy); creatine phosphokinase (weekly for the first month). For all patients, monitor ECG (prior to therapy initiation, at least weekly for the first 3 weeks and then monthly for the duration of therapy. More frequent ECG monitoring may be required if QTc interval prolongation occurs, in patients with congenital long QTc syndrome, heart failure, electrolyte abnormalities, or patients taking medications known to prolong the QTc interval. Monitor for signs/symptoms of differentiation syndrome (in patients with AML and MDS); monitor hemodynamic status if differentiation syndrome is suspected. Monitor for signs/symptoms of tumor lysis syndrome and onset of new signs or symptoms of motor and/or sensory neuropathy for Guillain-Barré syndrome (eg, unilateral or bilateral weakness, sensory alterations, paresthesias, or difficulty breathing). Monitor adherence.
The American Society of Clinical Oncology hepatitis B virus (HBV) screening and management provisional clinical opinion (ASCO [Hwang 2020]) recommends HBV screening with hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B core antibody, total Ig or IgG, and antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen prior to beginning (or at the beginning of) systemic anticancer therapy; do not delay treatment for screening/results. Detection of chronic or past HBV infection requires a risk assessment to determine antiviral prophylaxis requirements, monitoring, and follow-up.
Ivosidenib is an oral small-molecule inhibitor of the mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) enzyme. Susceptible IDH1 mutations can lead to increased levels of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) in cells. 2-HG inhibits alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent enzymes, resulting in impaired hematopoietic differentiation (DiNardo 2018). In IDH1-mutated AML blood samples, ivosidenib decreased intracellular levels of 2-HG, reduced blast counts, and induced differentiation (resulting in increased percentages of mature myeloid cells). IDH1 mutations occur in ~6% to 10% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (DiNardo 2018) and up to ~20% of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (Zhu 2021).
