Warnings and precautions
QTc Interval Prolongation : Monitor electrocardiograms and electrolytes. If QTc interval prolongation occurs, dose reduce or withhold, then resume dose or permanently discontinue TIBSOVO ( 2.3 , 5.2 ). Guillain-Barré Syndrome : Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of new motor and/or sensory findings. Permanently discontinue TIBSOVO in patients who are diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome ( 2.3 , 5.3 ).
5.1 Differentiation Syndrome in AML and MDS Differentiation syndrome is associated with rapid proliferation and differentiation of myeloid cells and may be life-threatening or fatal. Symptoms of differentiation syndrome in patients treated with TIBSOVO included noninfectious leukocytosis, peripheral edema, pyrexia, dyspnea, pleural effusion, hypotension, hypoxia, pulmonary edema, pneumonitis, pericardial effusion, rash, fluid overload, tumor lysis syndrome and creatinine increased. In the combination study AG120-C-009, 15% (11/71) patients with newly diagnosed AML treated with TIBSOVO plus azacitidine experienced differentiation syndrome [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Of the 11 patients with newly diagnosed AML who experienced differentiation syndrome with TIBSOVO plus azacitidine 8 (73%) recovered. Differentiation syndrome occurred as early as 3 days after start of therapy and during the first month on treatment. In the monotherapy clinical trial AG120-C-001, 25% (7/28) of patients with newly diagnosed AML and 19% (34/179) of patients with relapsed or refractory AML treated with TIBSOVO experienced differentiation syndrome [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Of the 7 patients with newly diagnosed AML who experienced differentiation syndrome, 6 (86%) patients recovered. Of the 34 patients with relapsed or refractory AML who experienced differentiation syndrome, 27 (79%) patients recovered after treatment or after dose interruption of TIBSOVO. Differentiation syndrome occurred as early as 1 day and up to 3 months after TIBSOVO initiation and has been observed with or without concomitant leukocytosis. In the monotherapy clinical trial AG120-C-001, 11% (2/19) of patients with relapsed or refractory MDS treated with TIBSOVO experienced differentiation syndrome [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Of the 2 patients who experienced differentiation syndrome, both recovered after treatment or after dose interruption of TIBSOVO. Differentiation syndrome occurred as early as 1 day and up to 3 months after TIBSOVO initiation and has been observed with or without concomitant leukocytosis. If differentiation syndrome is suspected, initiate dexamethasone 10 mg IV every 12 hours (or an equivalent dose of an alternative oral or IV corticosteroid) and hemodynamic monitoring until improvement [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . If concomitant noninfectious leukocytosis is observed, initiate treatment with hydroxyurea or leukapheresis, as clinically indicated. Taper corticosteroids and hydroxyurea after resolution of symptoms and administer corticosteroids for a minimum of 3 days. Symptoms of differentiation syndrome may recur with premature discontinuation of corticosteroid and/or hydroxyurea treatment. If severe signs and/or symptoms persist for more than 48 hours after initiation of corticosteroids, interrupt TIBSOVO until signs and symptoms are no longer severe [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ]. 5.2 QTc Interval Prolongation Patients treated with TIBSOVO can develop QT (QTc) prolongation and ventricular arrhythmias [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ]. Of the 71 patients with newly diagnosed AML treated with TIBSOVO in combination with azacitidine in the clinical trial (Study AG120-C-009), 10 (14%) were found to have a heart-rate corrected QT interval (using Fridericia's method) (QTcF) greater than 500 msec and 15 out of 69 (22%) had an increase from baseline QTcF greater than 60 msec [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . The clinical trial excluded patients with a QTcF ≥ 470 msec or other factors that increased the risk of QT prolongation or arrhythmic events (e.g. NYHA Class III or IV congestive heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of long QT interval syndrome). Of the 265 patients with hematological malignancies, including patients with AML and MDS, treated with TIBSOVO monotherapy in the clinical trial (AG120-C-001), 9% were found to have a QTc interval greater than 500 msec and 14% of patients had an increase from baseline QTc greater than 60 msec [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . One patient developed ventricular fibrillation attributed to TIBSOVO. The clinical trial excluded patients with baseline QTc of ≥ 450 msec (unless the QTc ≥ 450 msec was due to a pre-existing bundle branch block) or with a history of long QT syndrome or uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease. Of the 123 patients with cholangiocarcinoma treated with TIBSOVO in the clinical trial (Study AG120-C-005), 2% were found to have a QTc interval greater than 500 msec and 5% of patients had an increase from baseline QTc greater than 60 msec [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . The clinical trial excluded patients with a heart-rate corrected QT interval (using Fridericia's formula) (QTcF) ≥ 450 msec or other factors that increased the risk of QT prolongation or arrhythmic events (e.g., heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of long QT interval syndrome). Concomitant use of TIBSOVO with drugs known to prolong the QTc interval (e.g., anti-arrhythmic medicines, fluoroquinolones, triazole anti-fungals, 5-HT 3 receptor antagonists) and CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation [see Drug Interactions (7.1) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ]. Conduct monitoring of electrocardiograms (ECGs) and electrolytes [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . 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. Interrupt TIBSOVO if QTc increases to greater than 480 msec and less than 500 msec. Interrupt and reduce TIBSOVO if QTc increases to greater than 500 msec. Permanently discontinue TIBSOVO in patients who develop QTc interval prolongation with signs or symptoms of life-threatening arrhythmia [See Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] .
5.3 Guillain-Barré Syndrome Guillain-Barré syndrome can develop in patients treated with TIBSOVO. Guillain-Barré syndrome occurred in 0.8% (2/265) of patients treated with TIBSOVO in study AG120-C-001 [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Monitor patients taking TIBSOVO 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. Permanently discontinue TIBSOVO in patients who are diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ].

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. Acute Myeloid Leukemia In AML, the safety population reflects exposure to TIBSOVO at 500 mg daily in combination with azacitidine or as monotherapy in patients in Studies AG120-C-009 (N=71) and AG120-C-001 (N=213), respectively [see Clinical Studies (14.1 and 14.2) ] . In this safety population, the most common adverse reactions including laboratory abnormalities (≥ 25% in either trial) were leukocytes decreased, diarrhea, hemoglobin decreased, platelets decreased, glucose increased, fatigue, alkaline phosphatase increased, edema, potassium decreased, nausea, vomiting, phosphatase decreased, decreased appetite, sodium decreased, leukocytosis, magnesium decreased, aspartate aminotransferase increased, arthralgia, dyspnea, uric acid increased, abdominal pain, creatinine increased, mucositis, rash, electrocardiogram QT prolonged, differentiation syndrome, calcium decreased, neutrophils decreased, and myalgia. Newly Diagnosed AML TIBSOVO in Combination with Azacitidine The safety of TIBSOVO was evaluated in AML patients treated in combination with azacitidine, in Study AG120-C-009 [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . Patients received at least one dose of either TIBSOVO 500 mg daily (N=71) or placebo (N=73). Among patients who received TIBSOVO in combination with azacitidine, the median duration of exposure to TIBSOVO was 6 months (range 0 to 33 months). Thirty-four patients (48%) were exposed to TIBSOVO for at least 6 months and 22 patients (31%) were exposed for at least 1 year. Common (≥ 5%) serious adverse reactions in patients who received TIBSOVO in combination with azacitidine included differentiation syndrome (8%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 4% of patients who received TIBSOVO in combination with azacitidine, due to differentiation syndrome (3%) and one case of cerebral ischemia. Adverse reactions leading to discontinuation of TIBSOVO in ≥2% of patients were differentiation syndrome (3%) and pulmonary embolism (3%). The most common (>5%) adverse reactions leading to dose interruption of TIBSOVO were neutropenia (25%), electrocardiogram QT prolonged (7%), and thrombocytopenia (7%). Adverse reactions leading to dose reduction of TIBSOVO included electrocardiogram QT prolonged (8%), neutropenia (8%), and thrombocytopenia (1%). The most common adverse reactions and laboratory abnormalities observed in Study AG120-C-009 are shown in Tables 2 and 3.

Drug interactions
Strong or Moderate CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Reduce TIBSOVO dose with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. Monitor patients for increased risk of QTc interval prolongation ( 2.4 , 5.2 , 7.1 , 12.3 ). Strong CYP3A4 Inducers: Avoid concomitant use with TIBSOVO ( 7.1 , 12.3 ). Sensitive CYP3A4 substrates: Avoid concomitant use with TIBSOVO ( 7.2 , 12.3 ). QTc Prolonging Drugs: Avoid concomitant use with TIBSOVO. If co-administration is unavoidable, monitor patients for increased risk of QTc interval prolongation ( 5.2 , 7.1 ).
7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on Ivosidenib Strong or Moderate CYP3A4 Inhibitors Clinical Impact Co-administration of TIBSOVO with strong or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors increased ivosidenib plasma concentrations [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Increased ivosidenib plasma concentrations may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ]. Prevention or Management Consider alternative therapies that are not strong or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors during treatment with TIBSOVO. If co-administration of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor is unavoidable, reduce TIBSOVO to 250 mg once daily [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ]. Monitor patients for increased risk of QTc interval prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] . Strong CYP3A4 Inducers Clinical Impact Co-administration of TIBSOVO with strong CYP3A4 inducers decreased ivosidenib plasma concentrations [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Prevention or Management Avoid co-administration of strong CYP3A4 inducers with TIBSOVO. QTc Prolonging Drugs Clinical Impact Co-administration of TIBSOVO with QTc prolonging drugs may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ]. Prevention or Management Avoid co-administration of QTc prolonging drugs with TIBSOVO or replace with alternative therapies. If co-administration of a QTc prolonging drug is unavoidable, monitor patients for increased risk of QTc interval prolongation [ see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ].
7.2 Effect of Ivosidenib on Other Drugs Ivosidenib induces CYP3A4 and may induce CYP2C9. Co-administration will decrease concentrations of drugs that are sensitive CYP3A4 substrates and may decrease concentrations of drugs that are sensitive CYP2C9 substrates [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Use alternative therapies that are not sensitive substrates of CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 during TIBSOVO treatment. If co-administration of TIBSOVO with sensitive CYP3A4 substrates or CYP2C9 substrates is unavoidable, monitor patients for loss of therapeutic effect of these drugs. Do not administer TIBSOVO with anti-fungal agents that are substrates of CYP3A4 due to expected loss of antifungal efficacy. Co-administration of TIBSOVO may decrease the concentrations of hormonal contraceptives, consider alternative methods of contraception in patients receiving TIBSOVO.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, children and older adults
Lactation: Advise women not to breastfeed ( 8.2) .
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on animal embryo-fetal toxicity studies, TIBSOVO may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on TIBSOVO use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage. 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 (see Data ). 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. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. Adverse outcomes in pregnancy occur regardless of the health of the mother or the use of medications. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2%-4% and 15%-20%, respectively. Data Animal Data Ivosidenib administered to pregnant rats at a dose of 500 mg/kg/day during organogenesis (gestation days 6-17) was associated with adverse embryo-fetal effects including lower fetal weights, and skeletal variations. These effects occurred in rats at approximately 2 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 500 mg daily. In pregnant rabbits treated during organogenesis (gestation days 7-20), ivosidenib was maternally toxic at doses of 180 mg/kg/day (exposure approximately 3.9 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 500 mg daily) and caused spontaneous abortions as well as decreased fetal weights, skeletal variations, and visceral variations.
8.2 Lactation Risk Summary 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 with TIBSOVO and for 1 month after the last dose.
8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of TIBSOVO in pediatric patients have not been established.
8.5 Geriatric Use Of the 304 patients who received TIBSOVO in the clinical studies for AML and MDS, 75% were 65 years of age or older and 35% were 75 years or older. Of the 124 patients with cholangiocarcinoma treated with TIBSOVO in Study AG120-C-005, 37% were 65 years of age or older and 11% were 75 years or older. No overall differences in effectiveness or safety were observed between patients who were 65 years and older compared to younger patients.
8.6 Renal Impairment No modification of the starting dose is recommended for patients with mild or moderate renal impairment (eGFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73m 2 , MDRD). The pharmacokinetics and safety of ivosidenib in patients with severe renal impairment (eGFR < 30 mL/min/1.73m 2 , MDRD) or renal impairment requiring dialysis are unknown [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . For patients with pre-existing severe renal impairment or who are requiring dialysis, consider the risks and potential benefits before initiating treatment with TIBSOVO.
8.7 Hepatic Impairment No modification of the starting dose is recommended for patients with mild or moderate (Child-Pugh A or B) hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . The pharmacokinetics and safety of ivosidenib in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C) are unknown. For patients with pre-existing severe hepatic impairment, consider the risks and potential benefits before initiating treatment with TIBSOVO.
How it works
Ivosidenib is a small molecule inhibitor that targets the mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) enzyme. In patients with AML, susceptible IDH1 mutations are defined as those leading to increased levels of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) in the leukemia cells and where efficacy is predicted by 1) clinically meaningful remissions with the recommended dose of ivosidenib and/or 2) inhibition of mutant IDH1 enzymatic activity at concentrations of ivosidenib sustainable at the recommended dosage according to validated methods. The most common of such mutations in patients with AML are R132H and R132C substitutions. Ivosidenib was shown to inhibit selected IDH1 R132 mutants at much lower concentrations than wild-type IDH1 in vitro. Inhibition of the mutant 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. In a patient-derived xenograft intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma mouse model with IDH1 R132C, ivosidenib reduced 2-HG levels.
