Inclusion criteria

• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of ≤ 2

• Treatment naive or relapsed/refractory AML who are eligible for intensive chemotherapy. Patients with high-risk MDS or MPN (defined as International Prognostic Scoring System Revised \[IPSS-R\] score ≥ 4 or dynamic \[D\]-IPSS ≥ 3) may also be eligible after discussion with the PI
• Adequate hepatic function (direct bilirubin ≤ 2 x upper limit of normal (ULN), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3 x ULN unless deemed to be related to underlying leukemia
• Adequate renal function including creatinine clearance ≥ 30 ml/min based on the Cockcroft-Gault equation.
• Willing and able to provide informed consent
• In the absence of rapidly proliferative disease, the interval from prior treatment to time of initiation will be at least 7 days for cytotoxic or non-cytotoxic (immunotherapy) agents.
• Male subjects must agree to refrain from unprotected sex and sperm donation from initial study drug administration until 90 days after the last dose of study drug

Exclusion criteria

• Patients with any concurrent uncontrolled clinically significant medical condition including infection, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness, which could place the patient at unacceptable risk of study treatment.
• The use of other chemotherapeutic agents or anti-leukemic agents is not permitted during study with the following exceptions (1) intrathecal chemotherapy for prophylactic use or for controlled CNS leukemia. (2) use of hydroxyurea, and/or cytarabine (1 or 2 doses; up to 2 g/m2) for patients with rapidly proliferative disease is allowed before the start of study therapy.
• Patients with active graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) status post stem cell transplant (patients without active GVHD on chronic suppressive immunosuppression and/or phototherapy for chronic skin GVHD are permitted after discussion with the PI).
