Indication
4.1 Therapeutic indications
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 – please refer to the Product Insert/Patient Information Leaflet published on HSA for the full drug information).
Tibsovo monotherapy is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with an IDH1 R132 mutation who were previously treated by at least one prior line of systemic therapy (see section 5.1 – please refer to the Product Insert/Patient Information Leaflet published on HSA for the full drug information).
Dosing
4.2 Posology and method of administration
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. 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 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. QTc interval abnormalities should be managed promptly (see Table 1 and section 4.4 – please refer to the Product Insert/Patient Information Leaflet published on HSA for the full drug information). In case of suggestive symptomatology, an ECG should be performed as clinically indicated.
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. An ECG should be performed prior to co-administration, weekly monitoring for at least 3 weeks and then as clinically indicated (see below and sections 4.4, 4.5 and 4.8 – please refer to the Product Insert/Patient Information Leaflet published on HSA for the full drug information).
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. If the moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitor is discontinued, the dose of ivosidenib should be increased to 500 mg after at least 5 half-lives of the CYP3A4 inhibitor (see above and sections 4.4 and 4.5 – please refer to the Product Insert/Patient Information Leaflet published on HSA for the full drug information).
