This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of venetoclax and how well it works when given together with ivosidenib with or without azacitidine, in treating patients with IDH1-mutated hematologic malignancies. Venetoclax and ivosidenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ivosidenib and venetoclax with azacitidine may work better in treating patients with hematologic malignancies compared to ivosidenib and venetoclax alone.
Age > 18 years.
ECOG performance status of < 2.
IDH1-R132 mutated disease status as assessed by local laboratory. 2HG-producing IDH1 variants outside of R132 (i.e. R100) may be eligible after discussion with the PI.
Relapsed/refractory AML, or treatment-naïve patients with AML who are not eligible for standard induction chemotherapy. Patients with high-risk MDS, MDS/MPN or MPN (defined as > 10% bone marrow blasts, or intermediate or high risk by IPSS, R-IPSS or D-IPSS) that have failed standard therapy may also be eligible after discussion with the PI.
Patients with known allergy or hypersensitivity to ivosidenib or venetoclax.
Patients who have previously received either ivosidenib or venetoclax.
Patients with any concurrent uncontrolled clinically significant medical condition including infection, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness, which could place the patient at unacceptable risk of study treatment.
The use of other chemotherapeutic agents or anti-leukemic agents is not permitted during study with the following exceptions (1) intrathecal chemotherapy for prophylactic use or for controlled CNS leukemia. (2) use of hydroxyurea and/or one dose of cytarabine (up to 2 g/m2) for patients with rapidly proliferative disease is allowed before the start of study therapy and for the first four weeks on therapy.
