Tibsovo is a brand name for Ivosidenib. The medicine, its uses, side effects and dosage are the same regardless of brand.
Used for: Tibsovo in combination with azacitidine is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with an isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) R132 mutation who are not eligible to receive standard induction chemotherapy (see section 5.1). Tibsovo monotherapy is indicated for the…

Treatment should be initiated under the supervision of physicians experienced in the use of anti-cancer medicinal products. Before taking Tibsovo, patients must have confirmation of an IDH1 R132 mutation using an appropriate diagnostic test.
Posology Acute myeloid leukaemia The recommended dose is 500 mg ivosidenib (2 x 250 mg tablets) taken orally once daily on days 1- 28 of each cycle. Ivosidenib should be started on cycle 1 day 1 in combination with azacitidine at 75 mg/m2 of body surface area, intravenously or subcutaneously, once daily on days 1-7 of each 28-day cycle.
The first 3 treatment cycle of azacitidine should be given at 100% of the dose. It is recommended that patients be treated for a minimum of 6 cycles. For the posology and method of administration of azacitidine, please refer to the full product information for azacitidine.
Treatment should be continued until disease progression or until treatment is no longer tolerated by the patient. Cholangiocarcinoma The recommended dose is 500 mg ivosidenib (2 x 250 mg tablets) taken orally once daily. Treatment should be continued until disease progression or until treatment is no longer tolerated by the patient.
Missed or delayed doses If a dose is missed or not taken at the usual time, the tablets should be taken as soon as possible within 12 hours after the missed dose. Two doses should not be taken within 12 hours. The tablets should be taken as usual the following day.
If a dose is vomited, replacement tablets should not be taken. The tablets should be taken as usual the following day. Precautions to be taken prior to administration and monitoring An electrocardiogram (ECG) must be performed prior to treatment initiation.
Heart rate corrected QT (QTc) should be less than 450 msec prior to treatment initiation and, in the presence of an abnormal QT, practitioners should thoroughly reassess the benefit/risk of initiating ivosidenib. In case QTc interval prolongation is between 480 msec and 500 msec, initiation of treatment with ivosidenib should remain exceptional and be accompanied by close monitoring.
An ECG must be performed prior to treatment initiation, at least weekly during the first 3 weeks of therapy and then monthly thereafter if the QTc interval remains ≤ 480 msec. 4). In case of suggestive symptomatology, an ECG should be performed as clinically indicated.

11 The most common serious adverse reactions were differentiation syndrome (8%) and thrombocytopenia (3%). In patients treated with ivosidenib in combination with azacitidine, the frequency of discontinuation of ivosidenib due to adverse reactions was 6%.
Adverse reactions leading to discontinuation were electrocardiogram QT prolonged (1%), insomnia (1%), neutropenia (1%) and thrombocytopenia (1%). The frequency of dose interruption of ivosidenib due to adverse reactions was 35%. The most common adverse reactions leading to dose interruption were neutropenia (24%), electrocardiogram QT prolonged (7%), thrombocytopenia (7%), leukopenia (4%) and differentiation syndrome (3%).
The frequency of dose reduction of ivosidenib due to adverse reactions was 19%. Adverse reactions leading to dose reduction were electrocardiogram QT prolonged (10%), neutropenia (8%) and thrombocytopenia (1%). Tabulated list of adverse reactions The frequencies of adverse reactions are based on Study AG120-C-009 which included 72 patients with newly diagnosed AML randomised to and treated with ivosidenib (500 mg daily) in combination with azacitidine.
0 months). The adverse reaction frequencies are based on all-cause adverse event frequencies, where a proportion of the events for an adverse reaction may have other causes than ivosidenib, such as the disease, other medicinal products or unrelated causes.
Frequencies are defined as: very common (≥ 1/10); common (≥ 1/100 to < 1/10); uncommon (≥ 1/1 000 to < 1/100); rare (≥ 1/10 000 to < 1/1 000); very rare (< 1/10 000). Within each frequency grouping, adverse reactions are presented in the order of decreasing seriousness.
8). 2). Differentiation syndrome is associated with rapid proliferation and differentiation of myeloid cells. Symptoms include: non-infectious leukocytosis, peripheral oedema, pyrexia, dyspnoea, pleural effusion, hypotension, hypoxia, pulmonary oedema, pneumonitis, pericardial effusion, rash, fluid overload, tumour lysis syndrome and creatinine increased.
Patients must be informed of signs and symptoms of differentiation syndrome, be advised to contact their physician immediately if these occur and the need to carry the Patient Alert Card with them at all times. If differentiation syndrome is suspected, administer systemic corticosteroids and initiate hemodynamic monitoring until symptom resolution and for a minimum of 3 days.
2). 7 Taper corticosteroids and hydroxycarbamide only after resolution of symptoms. Symptoms of differentiation syndrome may recur with premature discontinuation of corticosteroid and/or hydroxycarbamide treatment. Interrupt treatment with Tibsovo if severe signs/symptoms persist for more than 48 hours after the initiation of systemic corticosteroids and resume treatment at 500 mg ivosidenib once daily when the signs/symptoms are moderate or lower and upon improvement in the patient’s clinical condition.
8). 2). 2). In case of suggestive symptomatology, an ECG should be performed as clinically indicated. In case of severe vomiting and/or diarrhoea, an assessment of serum electrolytes abnormalities, especially hypokalaemia and magnesium, must be performed.
Patients should be informed of the risk of QT prolongation, its signs and symptoms (palpitation, dizziness, syncope or even cardiac arrest) and be advised to contact their physician immediately if these occur. Concomitant administration of medicinal products known to prolong the QTc interval, or moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation and should be avoided whenever possible during treatment with Tibsovo.
1. 5). Congenital long QT syndrome. Familial history of sudden death or polymorphic ventricular arrhythmia. 4).

Concomitant administration of medicinal products known to prolong the QTc interval, or moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation and should be avoided whenever possible during treatment with Tibsovo.
Patients should be treated with caution and closely monitored for QTc interval prolongation if use of a suitable alternative is not possible. 8). Complete blood count and blood chemistries should be assessed prior to the initiation of Tibsovo, at least once weekly for the first month of treatment, once every other week for the second month, and at each medical visit for the duration of therapy as clinically indicated.
Dose modification for concomitant administration of moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors If use of moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors cannot be avoided, the recommended dose of ivosidenib should be reduced to 250 mg (1 x 250 mg tablet) once daily.

Patients should be treated with caution and closely monitored for QTc interval prolongation if use of a suitable alternative is not possible. ECG should be performed prior to co-administration, weekly monitoring for at least 3 weeks and then as clinically indicated.
5). If administration of furosemide (an OAT3 substrate) is clinically indicated to manage signs/symptoms of differentiation syndrome, patients should be closely monitored for electrolyte imbalances and QTc interval prolongation. Patients with congestive heart failure or electrolyte abnormalities should be monitored closely, with periodic monitoring of ECGs and electrolytes, during treatment with ivosidenib.
2). Ivosidenib should be used with caution in patients who have either albumin levels below the normal range or are underweight. 73 m2). 2). Hepatic impairment The safety and efficacy of ivosidenib have not been established in patients with moderate and severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classes B and C).
