Meaning and usage are very similar to 次第で, but いかんで is slightly more formal.

I think the kanji listed at the top is incorrect. It's usually written in hiragana and if it is kanji, according to Jim Breen's site it's 如何.

遺憾では,いかんによっては is what's showing up at the top for me. 遺憾 also has the furigana above it.

Two more possible constructions:

A は B いかんだ
A (の) いかん で は

The second one is the same as above, just with an optional の.

Here are two example sentences:

成功は努力いかんによる。
Success depends on your efforts.
彼の命は判決いかんにかかっている。
His life hangs on the judge's decision.

Even if it looks very similar to the constructions already indicated, it's easier to think of it as a separate (more extensive) construction.
