Ivosidenib in IDH1-mutant, chemotherapy-refractory cholangiocarcinoma (ClarIDHy): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study
BACKGROUND: Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations occur in approximately 13% of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, a relatively uncommon cancer with a poor clinical outcome. The aim of this international phase 3 study was to assess the efficacy and safety of ivosidenib (AG-120)-a small-molecule targeted inhibitor of mutated IDH1-in patients with previously treated IDH1-mutant cholangiocarcinoma. METHODS: This multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study included patients from 49 hospitals in six countries aged at least 18 years with histologically confirmed, advanced, IDH1-mutant cholangiocarcinoma who had progressed on previous therapy, and had up to two previous treatment regimens for advanced disease, an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score of 0 or 1, and a measurable lesion as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Patients were randomly assigned (2:1) with a block size of 6 and stratified by number of previous systemic treatment regimens for advanced disease to oral ivosidenib 500 mg or matched placebo once daily in continuous 28-day cycles, by means of an interactive web-based response system. Placebo to ivosidenib crossover was permitted on radiological progression per investigator assessment. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival by independent central review. The intention-to-treat population was used for the primary efficacy analyses. Safety was assessed in all patients who had received at least one dose of ivosidenib or placebo. Enrolment is complete; this study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02989857. FINDINGS: Between Feb 20, 2017, and Jan 31, 2019, 230 patients were assessed for eligibility, and as of the Jan 31, 2019 data cutoff date, 185 patients were randomly assigned to ivosidenib (n=124) or placebo (n=61). Median follow-up for progression-free survival was 6·9 months (IQR 2·8-10·9). Progression-free survival was significantly improved with ivosidenib compared with placebo (median 2·7 months [95% CI 1·6-4·2] vs 1·4 months [1·4-1·6]; hazard ratio 0·37; 95% CI 0·25-0·54; one-sided p<0·0001). The most common grade 3 or worse adverse event in both treatment groups was ascites (four [7%] of 59 patients receiving placebo and nine [7%] of 121 patients receiving ivosidenib). Serious adverse events were reported in 36 (30%) of 121 patients receiving ivosidenib and 13 (22%) of 59 patients receiving placebo. There were no treatment-related deaths. INTERPRETATION: Progression-free survival was significantly improved with ivosidenib compared with placebo, and ivosidenib was well tolerated. This study shows the clinical benefit of targeting IDH1 mutations in advanced, IDH1-mutant cholangiocarcinoma. FUNDING: Agios Pharmaceuticals
Final Overall Survival Efficacy Results of Ivosidenib for Patients With Advanced Cholangiocarcinoma With IDH1 Mutation: The Phase 3 Randomized Clinical ClarIDHy Trial
IMPORTANCE:
Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) variations occur in up to approximately 20% of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. In the ClarIDHy trial, progression-free survival as determined by central review was significantly improved with ivosidenib vs placebo.
OBJECTIVE:
To report the final overall survival (OS) results from the ClarIDHy trial, which aimed to demonstrate the efficacy of ivosidenib (AG-120)—a first-in-class, oral, small-molecule inhibitor of mutant IDH1—vs placebo for patients with unresectable or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with IDH1 mutation.
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS:
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, clinical phase 3 trial was conducted from February 20, 2017, to May 31, 2020, at 49 hospitals across 6 countries among patients aged 18 years or older with cholangiocarcinoma with IDH1 mutation whose disease progressed with prior therapy.
INTERVENTIONS:
Patients were randomized 2:1 to receive ivosidenib,
500 mg, once daily or matched placebo. Crossover from placebo to ivosidenib was permitted if patients had disease progression as determined by radiographic findings.
MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES:
The primary end point was progression-free survival as determined by blinded independent radiology center (reported previously). Overall survival was a key secondary end point. The primary analysis of OS followed the intent-to-treat principle. Other secondary end points included objective response rate, safety and tolerability, and quality of life.
RESULTS:
Overall, 187 patients (median age, 62 years [range, 33-83 years]) were randomly assigned to receive ivosidenib (n = 126; 82 women [65%]; median age, 61 years [range, 33-80 years]) or placebo (n = 61; 37 women [61%]; median age, 63 years [range, 40-83 years]); 43 patients crossed over from placebo to ivosidenib. The primary end point of progression-free survival was reported elsewhere. Median OS was 10.3 months (95% CI, 7.8-12.4 months) with ivosidenib vs 7.5 months (95% CI, 4.8-11.1 months) with placebo (hazard ratio, 0.79 [95% CI, 0.56-1.12]; 1-sided P = .09). When adjusted for crossover, median OS with placebo was 5.1 months (95% CI, 3.8-7.6 months; hazard ratio, 0.49 [95% CI, 0.34-0.70]; 1-sided P < .001). The most common grade 3 or higher treatment-emergent adverse event (≥5%) reported in both groups was ascites (11 patients [9%] receiving ivosidenib and 4 patients [7%] receiving placebo). Serious treatment-emergent adverse events considered ivosidenib related were reported in 3 patients (2%). There were no treatment-related deaths. Patients receiving ivosidenib reported no apparent decline in quality of life compared with placebo.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE:
This randomized clinical trial found that ivosidenib was well tolerated and resulted in a favorable OS benefit vs placebo, despite a high rate of crossover. These data, coupled with supportive quality of life data and a tolerable safety profile, demonstrate the clinical benefit of ivosidenib for patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma with IDH1 mutation.

Phase I study of the mutant IDH1 inhibitor ivosidenib: Long-term safety and clinical activity in patients with conventional chondrosarcoma
11532 Background: Chondrosarcomas (CS) are rare primary bone malignancies for which there are no approved systemic therapies. 85% of CS are the conventional subtype. Mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 ( IDH1) gene occur in ~50% of conventional CS. In a phase 1 study in patients (pts) with IDH1-mutated advanced solid tumors, ivosidenib (IVO), an oral potent inhibitor of mutant IDH1, demonstrated manageable toxicity (without dose-limiting toxicities), suppression of the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate at dose levels ≥300 mg/day, and disease control in pts with conventional CS. We report long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of IVO in pts with conventional CS. Methods: In this phase I multicenter open-label dose-escalation and expansion study, IVO was administered orally (100 mg twice/day [BID] to 1200 mg once/day [QD]) in continuous 28-day cycles. Primary outcome was safety and tolerability; secondary outcomes included clinical activity (objective response rates [ORR, defined as complete response (CR) + partial response (PR)], stable disease [SD] and progression-free survival [PFS]). Adverse events (AEs) were assessed every visit and reported per the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE version 4.03). Responses were assessed every other cycle using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.1). Results: 13 pts with advanced conventional CS were included in this analysis (data cut off 15 September 2022; women, n = 4; median age 54.0; AJCC tumor grade I [n = 2], II [n = 8], III [n = 1], unknown [n = 2]; 6 had received prior systemic therapy; received 100 mg IVO BID [n = 1], 400 mg QD [n = 1], 500 mg QD [n = 7], 800 mg QD [n = 2], and 1200 mg QD [n = 2]). Median treatment duration was 11.3 months (range: 0.5-92.6 months). Four pts (30.8%) have continued therapy for > 6 years (two of which were treated for > 7 years). Median relative dose intensity was 100%. The most frequent treatment emergent AEs (in > 4 pts; mostly grade 1/2) were diarrhea (n = 5) and nausea (n = 5). Six pts experienced grade ≥3 AEs. Three pts experienced serious AEs (none considered related to treatment). There were no discontinuations, dose reductions or deaths due to AEs. The ORR was 23.1%. Median duration of response was 42.5 months (range: 25.8-51.8 months). One pt with a base of the skull lesion achieved a CR (1200 mg IVO QD); two achieved PR (one 500 mg and one 1200 mg IVO QD); seven had SD (five received ≥500 mg IVO QD) and two had PD (both received ≥500 mg IVO QD). All responses occurred after > 2 years on treatment. Median PFS was 7.4 months (95% CI: 2.0-61.3). Conclusions: In pts with IDH1 mutated advanced conventional CS, IVO demonstrates manageable toxicity and durable disease control including long-term responses, extending several years for a proportion of pts. Future studies are warranted to better understand the efficacy of IVO in pts with advanced conventional CS. Clinical trial information: NCT02073994

Phase I Study of the Mutant IDH1 Inhibitor Ivosidenib: Safety and Clinical Activity in Patients With Advanced Chondrosarcoma
Surgery is the primary therapy for localized chondrosarcoma; for locally advanced and/or metastatic disease, no known effective systemic therapy exists. Mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 (IDH1/2) enzymes occur in up to 65% of chondrosarcomas, resulting in accumulation of the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG). Ivosidenib (AG-120) is a selective inhibitor of mutant IDH1 approved in the United States for specific cases of acute myeloid leukemia. We report outcomes of patients with advanced chondrosarcoma in an ongoing study exploring ivosidenib treatment.
This phase I multicenter open-label dose-escalation and expansion study of ivosidenib monotherapy enrolled patients with mutant
advanced solid tumors, including chondrosarcoma. Ivosidenib was administered orally (100 mg twice daily to 1,200 mg once daily) in continuous 28-day cycles. Responses were assessed every other cycle using RECIST (version 1.1).
Twenty-one patients (escalation, n = 12; expansion, n = 9) with advanced chondrosarcoma received ivosidenib (women, n = 8; median age, 55 years; range, 30-88 years; 11 had received prior systemic therapy). Treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) were mostly grade 1 or 2. Twelve patients experienced grade ≥ 3 AEs; only one event was judged treatment related (hypophosphatemia, n = 1). Plasma 2-HG levels decreased substantially in all patients (range, 14%-94.2%), to levels seen in healthy individuals. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.6 months (95% CI, 1.9 to 7.4 months); the PFS rate at 6 months was 39.5%. Eleven (52%) of 21 patients experienced stable disease.
In patients with chondrosarcoma, ivosidenib showed minimal toxicity, substantial 2-HG reduction, and durable disease control. Future studies of ivosidenib monotherapy or rational combination approaches should be considered in patients with advanced mutant
chondrosarcoma

Phase I study of AG-120, an IDH1 mutant enzyme inhibitor: Results from the cholangiocarcinoma dose escalation and expansion cohorts
4015 Background: Mutations in the metabolic enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) occur in patients (pts) with cholangiocarcinoma (CC) and are detected in up to 25% of intrahepatic CC. mIDH1 produce the oncometabolite, D-2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), resulting in epigenetic and genetic dysregulation and oncogenesis. AG-120 is a first-in-class, potent, oral inhibitor of mIDH1 tested in this phase I study in mIDH1 solid tumors, including CC. Methods: AG-120 was escalated in a 3+3 design from 100 mg twice daily to 1200 mg once daily (QD) in 28-day cycles (N = 60, mIDH1 advanced solid tumors). Key eligibility for CC: recurrence of progressive mIDH1 CC following standard therapy (dose escalation) or at least a prior gemcitabine-based regimen (expansion cohort). Response (RECIST 1.1) was assessed every 8 weeks. Plasma and tumor tissue were collected for exploratory analyses. Results: Based on the safety, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic data from dose escalation, the 500 mg QD dose was selected for expansion in mIDH1 CC and other mIDH1 solid tumors. As of Dec 16, 2016, 73 pts with mIDH1 CC had been dosed in the dose escalation (n = 24) and expansion (n = 49) cohorts. Demographics: M/F = 24/49, median number of prior therapies = 2 (range 1–5), ECOG 0–1 = 26/47. There were no dose-limiting toxicities. Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) in ≥5% pts: fatigue (21%), nausea (18%), vomiting (12%), diarrhea (10%), decreased appetite (8%), dysgeusia (5%), QT prolongation (5%). Two (3%) pts experienced related grade 3 AEs: fatigue and low phosphorus. There were no AG-120-related AEs leading to discontinuation. Among the 72 efficacy evaluable (≥1 post baseline response assessment or discontinued prematurely) mIDH1 CC pts (24 in escalation and 48 in expansion cohort), 6% (n = 4) had a confirmed partial response and 56% (n = 40) experienced stable disease. The progression-free survival rate at 6 months was 40%, and 8 pts have been treated with AG-120 for ≥1 year. Conclusions: In this pretreated mIDH1 CC population, AG-120 was associated with a favorable safety profile and prolonged stable disease. A global, phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled study of AG-120 in mIDH1 CC has been initiated (ClarIDHy). Clinical trial information: NCT02073994

Safety and activity of ivosidenib in patients with IDH1-mutant advanced cholangiocarcinoma: a phase 1 study
Isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) is mutated in up to 25% of cholangiocarcinomas, especially intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Ivosidenib is an oral, targeted inhibitor of mutant IDH1 (mIDH1) approved in the USA for the treatment of mIDH1 acute myeloid leukaemia in newly diagnosed patients ineligible for intensive chemotherapy and patients with relapsed or refractory disease. Ivosidenib is under clinical evaluation in a phase 1 study that aims to assess its safety and tolerability in patients with mIDH1 solid tumours. Here we report data for the mIDH1-cholangiocarcinoma cohort.
We did a phase 1 dose-escalation and expansion study of ivosidenib monotherapy in mIDH1 solid tumours at 12 clinical sites in the USA and one in France. The primary outcomes were safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose, and recommended phase 2 dose. Eligible patients had a documented mIDH1 tumour based on local testing, an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1, one or more previous lines of therapy, and evaluable disease by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. During dose escalation, ivosidenib was administered orally at 200-1200 mg daily in 28-day cycles in a standard 3 + 3 design; during expansion, patients received the selected dose on the basis of pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic, safety, and activity data from dose escalation. Safety and clinical activity analyses were reported for all patients with mIDH1-cholangiocarcinoma who were enrolled and received at least one dose of study treatment. Enrolment is complete, and the study is ongoing. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02073994.
Between March 14, 2014 and May 12, 2017, 73 patients with mIDH1-cholangiocarcinoma were enrolled and received ivosidenib. No dose-limiting toxicities were reported and maximum tolerated dose was not reached; 500 mg daily was selected for expansion. Common (≥20%) adverse events, regardless of cause, were fatigue (31 [42%]; two [3%] grade ≥3), nausea (25 [34%]; one [1%] grade ≥3), diarrhoea (23 [32%]), abdominal pain (20 [27%]; two [3%] grade ≥3), decreased appetite (20 [27%]; one [1%] grade ≥3), and vomiting (17 [23%]). Common grade 3 or worse adverse events were ascites (four [5%]) and anaemia (three [4%]); the only treatment-related grade 3 or worse adverse event in more than one patient was fatigue (two [3%]). Two (3%) patients had serious adverse events leading to on-treatment death (Clostridioides difficile infection and procedural haemorrhage); neither was assessed by the investigator as related to treatment. 46 (63%) patients had adverse events deemed related to ivosidenib, of which four (5%) were grade 3 or higher (two [3%] for fatigue; one [1%] each for decreased blood phosphorus and increased blood alkaline phosphatase). One serious adverse event was considered possibly related to treatment (grade 2 supraventricular extrasystoles). Four (5%; 95% CI 1·5-13·4) patients had a partial response. Median progression-free survival was 3·8 months (95% CI 3·6-7·3), 6-month progression-free survival was 40·1% (28·4-51·6), and 12-month progression-free survival was 21·8% (12·3-33·0). Median overall survival was 13·8 months (95% CI 11·1-29·3); however, data were censored for 48 patients (66%).
Ivosidenib might offer a well tolerated option for patients with mIDH1-cholangiocarcinoma. An ongoing, global phase 3 study is evaluating ivosidenib versus placebo in patients with previously treated nonresectable or metastatic mIDH1-cholangiocarcinoma.

D-2-hydroxyglutarate produced by mutant IDH2 causes cardiomyopathy and neurodegeneration in mice
Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1/2) have been discovered in several cancer types and cause the neurometabolic syndrome D2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria (D2HGA). The mutant enzymes exhibit neomorphic activity resulting in production of D2-hydroxyglutaric acid (D-2HG). To study the pathophysiological consequences of the accumulation of D-2HG, we generated transgenic mice with conditionally activated IDH2(R140Q) and IDH2(R172K) alleles. Global induction of mutant IDH2 expression in adults resulted in dilated cardiomyopathy, white matter abnormalities throughout the central nervous system (CNS), and muscular dystrophy. Embryonic activation of mutant IDH2 resulted in more pronounced phenotypes, including runting, hydrocephalus, and shortened life span, recapitulating the abnormalities observed in D2HGA patients. The diseased hearts exhibited mitochondrial damage and glycogen accumulation with a concordant up-regulation of genes involved in glycogen biosynthesis. Notably, mild cardiac hypertrophy was also observed in nude mice implanted with IDH2(R140Q)-expressing xenografts, suggesting that 2HG may potentially act in a paracrine fashion. Finally, we show that silencing of IDH2(R140Q) in mice with an inducible transgene restores heart function by lowering 2HG levels. Together, these findings indicate that inhibitors of mutant IDH2 may be beneficial in the treatment of D2HGA and suggest that 2HG produced by IDH mutant tumors has the potential to provoke a paraneoplastic condition
