It is the only targeted treatment to obtain approval for IDH1-mutated R/R MDS.
The new approval is based on data from an open-label Phase I clinical trial that assessed the tolerability, clinical activity and safety of ivosidenib.
Findings showed that treatment with Tibsovo offered a 38.9% complete remission rate (CR) and an 83.3% objective response rate in trial subjects.
The median time to CR was 1.9 months. Adverse events linked to Tibsovo were in line with its already reported safety profile.
