Mechanism of action

IDH1 mutations are found in certain hematologic malignancies and solid tumors, where they produce elevated levels of 2-hydroxyglutarate, an oncometabolite that drives malignant transformation. By selectively inhibiting mutant IDH1, ivosidenib reduces 2-hydroxyglutarate levels, leading to restoration of normal cellular differentiation pathways and induction of cell death in IDH1-mutant tumors.
