5. Warnings and Precautions

5.1 Differentiation Syndrome

In the clinical trial, 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. Differentiation syndrome is associated with rapid proliferation and differentiation of myeloid cells and may be life-threatening or fatal if not treated. 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. 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.

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 [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2)] and ventricular arrhythmias. Of the 258 patients with hematological malignancies treated with TIBSOVO in the clinical trial, 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. 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.

Concomitant use of TIBSOVO with drugs known to prolong the QTc interval (e.g., anti-arrhythmic medicines, fluoroquinolones, triazole anti-fungals, 5-HT3 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 occurred in <1% (2/258) of patients treated with TIBSOVO in the clinical study. 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. Adverse Reactions

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:

  • Differentiation Syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
  • QTc Interval Prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
  • Guillain-Barré Syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]

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.

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.

The safety of TIBSOVO as a single agent at 500 mg daily was evaluated in 213 patients with AML in Study AG120-C-001 [see Clinical Studies (14.1 and 14.2)]. The median age of TIBSOVO treated patients was 68 (range 18-87) with 68% ≥65 years, 51% male, 66% White, 6% Black or African American, 3% Asian, 0.5% Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, 0.5% American Indian or Alaska Native, and 24% other/not provided. Among the 213 patients who received TIBSOVO, 37% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 14% were exposed for 12 months or longer. The most common adverse reactions including laboratory abnormalities in ≥20% of 213 patients who received TIBSOVO were hemoglobin decreased, fatigue, arthralgia, calcium decreased, sodium decreased, leukocytosis, diarrhea, magnesium decreased, edema, nausea, dyspnea, uric acid increased, potassium decreased, alkaline phosphatase increased, mucositis, aspartate aminotransferase increased, phosphatase decreased, electrocardiogram QT prolonged, rash, creatinine increased, cough, decreased appetite, myalgia, constipation, and pyrexia.

Newly-Diagnosed AML

The safety profile of single-agent TIBSOVO was studied in 28 adults with newly-diagnosed AML treated with 500 mg daily [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. The median duration of exposure to TIBSOVO was 4.3 months (range 0.3 to 40.9 months). Ten patients (36%) were exposed to TIBSOVO for at least 6 months and 6 patients (21%) were exposed for at least 1 year.

Common (≥5%) serious adverse reactions included differentiation syndrome (18%), electrocardiogram QT prolonged (7%), and fatigue (7%). There was one case of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES).

Common (≥10%) adverse reactions leading to dose interruption included electrocardiogram QT prolonged (14%) and differentiation syndrome (11%). Two (7%) patients required a dose reduction due to electrocardiogram QT prolonged. One patient each required permanent discontinuation due to diarrhea and PRES.

The most common adverse reactions reported in the trial are shown in Table 2.

7. Drug Interactions

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. Do not administer TIBSOVO with itraconazole or ketoconazole (CYP3A4 substrates) 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. If co-administration of TIBSOVO with sensitive CYP3A4 substrates or CYP2C9 substrates is unavoidable, monitor patients for loss of therapeutic effect of these drugs.

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 at least 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

Thirty-three (97%) of the 34 patients with newly diagnosed AML in the clinical study were 65 years of age or older, and 19 patients (56%) were 75 years or older. One hundred and twelve (63%) of the 179 patients with relapsed or refractory AML in the clinical study were 65 years of age or older and 40 patients (22%) were 75 years or older. No overall differences in effectiveness or safety were observed between patients with relapsed or refractory AML who were 65 years and older and 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/1.73m², MDRD). The pharmacokinetics and safety of ivosidenib in patients with severe renal impairment (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m², 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.
