Abstract

Abstract Introduction Patients with progressing intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) harboring an isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutation who received ivosidenib showed a median progression-free survival (PFS) benefit of 1.3 months compared to placebo in the phase 3 ClarIDHy trial. Case Presentations We describe 2 consecutive patients with previously treated unresectable and metastatic iCCA harboring an IDH1 R132 mutation who achieved durable clinical responses with ivosidenib 500 mg once daily for >12 months until disease progression. In one case with a mixed response, a single progressive liver metastasis was additionally treated locally with interstitial brachytherapy, while ivosidenib was continued until further progression. Ivosidenib therapy resulted in long-term disease control with PFS of 20 and 13 months and duration of treatment of 26 and 13 months, respectively, with no relevant side effects. Conclusion Patients with unresectable or metastatic IDH1-mutated iCCA can achieve sustained clinical responses for >12 months with ivosidenib. No new safety signals were observed during long-term treatment with ivosidenib.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
