Background: Advanced cholangiocarcinoma (CC) is a life-threatening disease with limited effective chemotherapy options. Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (mIDH1) occur in 13–15% of CC cases, and up to 25% of intrahepatic CC cases, leading to epigenetic and genetic changes that promote oncogenesis via production of the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG). AG-120 (ivosidenib), a first-in-class oral mIDH1 inhibitor, displayed a favorable safety profile and clinical activity in a phase 1 study enrolling 73 mIDH1 CC patients who had received ≥1 prior systemic regimen. As of 10 Mar 2017, 4/73 (5%) had a partial response and 41/73 (56%) stable disease. Progression free survival (PFS) rates at 6 months and 12 months were 38.5% and 20.7%, respectively. The 500 mg once daily dose level of AG-120 was selected for further development in mIDH1 CC. Methods: ClarIDHy is a global, phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, randomized (2:1) study of AG-120 (500 mg once daily) vs. matched placebo in 186 mIDH1 CC patients (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02989857). Key eligibility criteria: non-resectable or metastatic CC, documented mIDH1 by central laboratory testing, ECOG performance status 0–1, measurable disease (RECIST v1.1), documented disease progression after ≤2 prior systemic therapies in the advanced setting including at least 1 gemcitabine- or 5-fluorouracil-containing regimen, and no prior mIDH inhibitor therapy. Crossover from placebo to AG-120 will be allowed at time of radiographic disease progression. Primary endpoint: PFS assessed by independent radiologists. Secondary endpoints: safety, tolerability, overall response rate (RECIST 1.1), overall survival, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic analyses, and quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BIL21 scales). An independent data monitoring committee will monitor the data during study conduct. The ClarIDHy study is currently activated at participating sites in the US, UK, EU, and S. Korea.
