Overview
abstract
Ivosidenib is a first-in-class mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) inhibitor and has shown efficacy and tolerability in patients with advanced mIDH1 hematologic malignancies, leading to approval in front-line and relapsed/refractory (R/R) mIDH1 AML populations. We report final data from a phase I single-arm substudy (NCT02074839) of patients with R/R mIDH1 MDS following failure of standard-of-care therapies. Oral ivosidenib was taken once daily on days 1-28 in 28-day cycles. Primary objectives were to determine safety, tolerability, and clinical activity. The primary efficacy endpoint was the complete remission + partial remission (CR+PR) rate. Nineteen patients were enrolled; 18 were included in the efficacy analysis. Treatment-related adverse events occurred in eight (42.1%) patients, including a grade 1 QT interval prolongation in one (5.3%) patient and grade 2 differentiation syndrome in two (10.5%) patients. Rates of CR+PR and objective response (CR +PR+marrow CR) were 38.9% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 17.3, 64.3) and 83.3% (95% CI: 58.6, 96.4), respectively. Kaplan-Meier estimates showed a 68.6% probability of patients in CR achieving a remission duration of >=5 years, and a median OS of 35.7 months. Of note, 71.4% and 75.0% baseline red blood cell (RBC) and platelet transfusion-dependent patients, respectively, became transfusion independent (TI; no transfusion >=56 days); 81.8% and 100% of baseline RBC and platelet TI patients, respectively, remained TI. One (5.3%) patient proceeded to a hematopoietic stem cell transplant by data cut-off. In conclusion, ivosidenib is clinically active, with durable remissions and a manageable safety profile observed in patients with mIDH1 R/R MDS.
