Boxed warning
WARNING: DIFFERENTIATION SYNDROME IN AML AND MDS Patients treated with TIBSOVO 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 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) and Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . WARNING: DIFFERENTIATION SYNDROME IN AML AND MDS See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning.
Patients treated with TIBSOVO have experienced symptoms of differentiation syndrome, which can be fatal. If differentiation syndrome is suspected, initiate corticosteroid therapy and hemodynamic monitoring until symptom resolution ( 5.1 , 6.1 ).
Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 Inhibitor
Dosing in kidney impairment
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 ] .
For patients with pre-existing severe renal impairment or who are requiring dialysis, consider the risks and potential benefits before initiating treatment with TIBSOVO.
Dosing in liver impairment
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 ] . 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.
Drug interactions
Check ivosidenib against a medication listLabel text (6 paragraphs)
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.

Liver injury (LiverTox)
E*Likelihood score E*: Unproven but suspected cause of clinically apparent liver injury.
Ivosidenib is an orally available small molecule inhibitor of mutated isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 that is used as an antineoplastic agent in the treatment of adults of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Ivosidenib is associated with a moderate rate of serum aminotransferase elevations during therapy and is suspected to be the cause of rare instances of clinically apparent acute liver injury.
ABCDEA: well known cause; E: unlikely cause. [HD]: high doses only.
Pregnancy and lactation
Pregnancy
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.
Breastfeeding (LactMed)
No information is available on the clinical use of ivosidenib during breastfeeding. Because ivosidenib is 92 to 96% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, its half-life is about 93 hours and it might accumulate in the infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during ivosidenib therapy and for 1 month after the dose.
