WHY TIBSOVO?
Targeted therapy
TIBSOVO is a targeted therapy—a personalized treatment option that targets a specific type of mutation known as IDH1. About 6% to 10% of people with AML have the IDH1 mutation.
Proven results
In a clinical trial, adult patients treated with TIBSOVO + azacitidine lived 3 times longer than those treated with azacitidine alone.
Convenient dosing
TIBSOVO is an oral medication typically prescribed for patients to take 2 tablets once daily. Your doctor may prescribe a regimen of TIBSOVO with or without azacitidine.
Patient support services
ServierONE offers patients helpful resources and tools for navigating treatment, costs, and education throughout their journey.

What is TIBSOVO?
TIBSOVO is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with an isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) mutation with:
• acute myeloid leukemia (AML):
- with newly diagnosed AML treated in combination with azacitidine or alone who are 75 years or older or who have health problems that prevent the use of certain chemotherapy treatments
- when the disease has come back or has not improved after previous treatment(s)
• myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS):
- when the disease has come back or has not improved after previous treatment(s)
Your healthcare provider will perform a test to make sure that TIBSOVO is right for you. It is not known if TIBSOVO is safe and effective in children.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
TIBSOVO may cause serious side effects, including:
- Differentiation syndrome. Differentiation syndrome is a common condition that affects your blood cells and may be life-threatening or lead to death. Differentiation syndrome in adults with AML and MDS has happened as early as 1 day and up to 3 months after starting TIBSOVO.

If you develop signs and symptoms of differentiation syndrome, your healthcare provider may treat you with a corticosteroid medicine or a medicine called hydroxyurea and may monitor you in the hospital.

Your healthcare provider will check the electrical activity of your heart with a test called an electrocardiogram (ECG) before and during treatment with TIBSOVO. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint
