Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is an enzyme present in the cytosol (IDH1) and mitochondria (IDH2 and IDH3) . In the mitochondrion, it catalyzes the irreversible oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate, yielding the production of α-ketoglutarate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) as well as carbon dioxide (CO 2) . In the cytosol, IDH catalyzes the decarboxylation of isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate as well as the reverse reductive carboxylation of α-ketoglutarate to isocitrate. These rate-limiting steps in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, as well as the cytoplasmic response to oxidative stress, play key roles in gene regulation, cell differentiation, and tissue homeostasis. Mutations in the genes encoding IDH1 and IDH2 and, less commonly, IDH3 have been found in a variety of cancers, most commonly glioma, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chondrosarcoma, and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. In this paper, we intend to elucidate the theorized pathophysiology behind IDH isomer mutation, its implication in cancer manifestation, and discuss some of the available clinical data regarding the use of novel IDH inhibitors and their role in therapy.  \nKeywords: IDH; isocitrate dehydrogenase; AML; MDS; glioma; cholangiocarcinoma; ivosidenib; enasidenib; vorasidenib; olutasidenib; oncometabolite  \n1. Introduction  \nThe fundamental abnormality resulting in the development of cancer is the continuous unregulated proliferation of clonal cells. This unregulated proliferation is a result of the net accumulation of anomalies in multiple cell regulatory systems. Such regulatory systems include checkpoint inhibition and triggered cell death, DNA repair mechanisms, and resilience to epigenetic stressors and oncometabolites. Cells that have acquired the ability to bypass these and other regulatory systems result in malignant proliferation that is able to disrupt normal tissue and spread to distant parts of the body, contributing to end-organ damage. Recent developments in genomic profiling via next-generation sequencing (NGS) have identified a multitude of targetable mutations that are presently being researched as potential avenues for therapy. One such target is the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) enzyme system. This protein product, found both in the cytosol and mitochondria of cells, plays a key role in cellular metabolism, growth, and differentiation.
