TIBSOVO HELPS FILL AN IMPORTANT TREATMENT GAP IN R/R MDS

Treatment options are limited in MDS6

First-line therapies for MDS often result in relapse or a lack of response.6,7 Historically, patients with R/R MDS have had limited therapeutic options.7

Supportive care agents
ESAs and EMAs are used to treat anemia in MDS, but primary resistance to ESA is common, and 70% of patients relapse8
~90% of MDS patients develop chronic anemia and may require long-term transfusion dependence, which can lead to long-term complications such as iron toxicity9-11
HMA therapy
Although HMAs are widely used in MDS, patients rarely achieve CR and most experience HMA failure6,12
Outcomes for patients after HMA failure are poor, with a median survival of less than 6 months13
HCT
HCT is the only curative option for MDS, but only around one-third of higher-risk patients are eligible6,14
Relapse occurs in 20% to 50% of patients15
Retest your patients for IDH1 mutations at the first suspicion of clinical change.6 Consider TIBSOVO for patients with mIDH1 MDS experiencing their first relapse.1

CR, complete remission; EMA, erythroid maturation agent; ESA, erythropoiesis-stimulating agent; HCT, hematopoietic cell transplantation; HMA, hypomethylating agent; IDH1, isocitrate dehydrogenase-1; mIDH1, mutated IDH1; R/R, relapsed or refractory.
