NCOG-44. Experience with vorasidenib in patients with grade 3 or 4 IDH-mutant gliomas

BACKGROUND The IDH inhibitor vorasidenib was FDA-approved for treatment of IDH-mutant grade 2 gliomas in August 2024. We evaluated vorasidenib in patients with grade 3 and 4 IDH-mutant gliomas who would not have been eligible for the INDIGO trial. METHODS Retrospective review of patients with grade 3 or 4 IDH-mutant gliomas treated with vorasidenib between 9/1/24 and 5/31/25. Prior treatments, radiographic response, adverse events and seizure control were collected for each patient. RESULTS Thirty-two patients (median age 39.5, 46.9% female) met inclusion criteria. Tumor types included grade 3 oligodendroglioma (11, 34.4%), grade 3 astrocytoma (13, 40.6%) and grade 4 astrocytoma (8, 25%). Thirty patients had contrast-enhancement; 2 patients had non-enhancing tumor. Prior treatments included surgical resection (30, 93.8%), radiation (27, 84.4%), cytotoxic chemotherapy (25, 78.1%), bevacizumab (5, 15.6%), pembrolizumab (3, 9.4%), and ivosidenib (8, 25%). Four patients (12.5%) were naïve to systemic treatment at the time of vorasidenib initiation. Median duration of vorasidenib was 101.5 days (range 18-255) with 19 patients still on vorasidenib at the time of last follow-up. Seventeen patients (53.1%) had stable disease, 11 (34.4%) had progressive disease, 2 (6.3%) did not yet have response assessment, and 2 (6.3%) died. Grade 1 transaminitis occurred in 12 patients with no high grade transaminitis. Two patients developed lymphopenia; both were heavily pre-treated with multiple alkylating agents; no other hematologic toxicity was noted. One patient developed myalgias leading to vorasidenib discontinuation. Nine patients had fatigue, 4 headaches, 2 nausea, 2 decreased appetite. In patients with a history of epilepsy, there were no reported seizures. CONCLUSIONS Vorasidenib was well-tolerated in this heavily pre-treated cohort of grade 3–4 IDH-mutant gliomas, with low-grade transaminitis and fatigue being the most common toxicities. Preliminary results show disease stability in 53.1% of patients after a median of 3.5 months. Conclusions are limited by short-interval follow-up.
