Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?A Phase 3b research study to consolidate the data that ivosidenib is safe and effective in adult patients with previously treated, locally advanced, or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). All patients who meet inclusion criteria will be enrolled to receive ivosidenib tablets orally once daily for 28 day cycles, continuing as long as clinical benefit and consent for participation is maintained. There will be a minimum of 6 study visits from screening until the final follow-up, if one cycle of treatment is completed and consent is maintained through 18 months of follow-up. Each additional cycle completed will add one study visit, on the first day of each cycle.
Do I need to stop my current medications for the trial?

The trial protocol does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. However, you cannot have received systemic cancer treatment or radiotherapy within 2 weeks before starting the trial, and certain other treatments within 4 weeks.

What data supports the effectiveness of the drug Ivosidenib for bile duct cancer?

Ivosidenib has been shown to improve progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma (a type of bile duct cancer) that have IDH1 mutations. In a phase III study, patients taking Ivosidenib lived longer without their cancer getting worse compared to those who took a placebo.

Is ivosidenib safe for humans?

Ivosidenib is generally well tolerated in humans, with most side effects being mild, such as diarrhea, nausea, and fatigue. Serious side effects are rare, and the treatment is associated with a low rate of discontinuation due to toxicity, making it a safe option for patients with certain conditions.

How is the drug Ivosidenib unique in treating bile duct cancer?

Ivosidenib is unique because it specifically targets and inhibits mutant IDH1, a genetic mutation found in some bile duct cancers, which helps slow down cancer progression and improve survival. Unlike standard chemotherapy, it is an oral medication and is particularly beneficial for patients whose cancer has progressed after initial treatments.

Ivosidenib in IDH1-mutated cholangiocarcinoma: Clinical evaluation and future directions. [2022]To date, treatment options for patients with chemorefractory cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are limited. However, the advancements in molecular techniques have recently increased the opportunity to offer molecularly targeted therapies to patients with several cancer types and some targetable oncogenic alterations have been identified also in CCA. Among these potentially actionable molecular alterations, isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) mutations have been detected in approximately 10-20% of intrahepatic CCA (iCCA). IDH1 is responsible for the accumulation of oncometabolites inducing epigenetic changes that are involved in various signaling pathways. Ivosidenib is the first IDH1 inhibitor which significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) (2.7 vs 1.4 months) and overall survival (OS) (10.3 vs 5.1 months [adjusted median OS]) compared with placebo in chemorefractory IDH1-mutated CCA. The very low incidence of grade (G) 3-4 adverse events (AEs) and treatment discontinuation due to toxicity, associated with a significantly less marked decline in health-related quality of life for patients in the ivosidenib group than in placebo group, facilitates patient adherence and clinician confidence. Here, we review the development of ivosidenib in CCA patients and evaluate the clinical impact of the results of the phase III ClarIDHy trial which was responsible for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for patients with IDH1-mutated CCA whose disease progressed after standard chemotherapy (CT). We also discuss the known primary and secondary resistance mechanisms, including concomitant and acquired mutations in other genes (e.g. IDH2 mutations), second-site mutation in IDH1, and enhanced activation of other pathways (e.g. PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway). Finally we examine the future directions, as the opportunity to combine ivosidenib with other synergistic agents, including standard chemotherapy (CT), immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), and IDH2 inhibitors.
Ivosidenib: A Review in Advanced Cholangiocarcinoma. [2023]Ivosidenib (Tibsovo®), a first-in-class, oral small molecule, potent and selective inhibitor of mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1), is approved in the EU and USA for the treatment of adults with pretreated, advanced, mIDH1 cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). It is presumed to exert its cytostatic effects in this setting by suppressing 2-hydroxyglutarate, an oncometabolite produced by mIDH1 that impairs cellular differentiation and promotes tumorigenesis. In the multinational phase 3 ClarIDHy study in patients with pretreated, advanced mIDH1 CCA, monotherapy with ivosidenib once daily significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) and almost doubled the disease control rate compared with placebo. Moreover, it had a favourable effect on overall survival (OS), which was also significantly prolonged after correcting for a high rate of crossover from the placebo group (permitted by the trial protocol). Ivosidenib treatment preserved health-related quality of life (HRQOL) relating to physical function, pain and appetite loss/eating and was generally well tolerated, with the most common treatment-emergent adverse events being low-grade diarrhoea, nausea and fatigue. Thus, ivosidenib represents a novel and valuable targeted therapy for the subset of patients with pretreated, advanced CCA tumors harbouring mIDH1.
Ivosidenib Boosts OS in Cholangiocarcinoma. [2022]Ivosidenib extends overall survival in patients with previously treated, advanced cholangiocarcinoma whose disease harbors IDH1 mutations. Median overall survival was 10.3 months in patients who received the drug, versus 7.5 months in the placebo group. The difference was even larger-5.1 months-when researchers accounted for patient crossover into the treatment group.
IDH Signalling Pathway in Cholangiocarcinoma: From Biological Rationale to Therapeutic Targeting. [2020]Biliary tract cancers are anatomically distinct and genetically diverse tumors, evenly characterized by poor response to standard treatments and a bleak outlook. The advent of comprehensive genomic profiling using next-generation sequencing has unveiled a plethora of potentially actionable aberrations, changing the view of biliary tract cancers from an "orphan" to a "target-rich" disease. Recently, mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase genes (IDH1/2) and fusions of the fibroblast growth factor receptor have emerged as the most amenable to molecularly targeted inhibition, with several compounds actively investigated in advanced-phase clinical trials. Specifically, the IDH1 inhibitor ivosidenib has been the first targeted agent to show a survival benefit in a randomized phase III trial of cholangiocarcinoma patients harboring IDH1 mutations. In this review article, we will focus on the IDH1/IDH2 pathway, discussing the preclinical rationale of its targeting as well as the promises and challenges of the clinical development of IDH inhibitors in biliary tract cancers.
Ivosidenib: an investigational drug for the treatment of biliary tract cancers. [2021]Introduction: Biliary tract cancers (BTCs) [including cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder cancer] are rare cancers associated with poor survival; most patients have advanced disease at diagnosis. Current chemotherapy reference regimens include cisplatin and gemcitabine as first-line; and oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil (FOLFOX) in second-line. Molecular profiling has identified several actionable therapeutic targets including isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)1 mutations. Ivosidenib is a reversible inhibitor of mutant IDH1; it is currently approved for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia and has been studied in patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma.Areas covered: This article introduces current treatments for BTC and sheds light on the mechanism of action, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy, and safety of ivosidenib in advanced cholangiocarcinoma. The authors conclude with insights on the changing treatment paradigm created by emerging drugs and precision approaches.Expert opinion: Ivosidenib is well tolerated, with good oral exposure and long half-life as shown by phase I data. In a phase III study, ivosidenib has demonstrated improved progression-free survival compared to placebo (median 2.7 vs 1.4 months; hazard ratio 0.37; 95% confidence interval 0.25-0.54; one-sided p < 0.0001); it has also demonstrated a trend toward increased overall survival in patients with cholangiocarcinoma and disease progression on prior chemotherapy. Final survival data from this study are pending presentation. Increased use of molecular profiling will continue to identify potential therapeutic targets and improve the prognosis of patients with these cancers.
