First line AML patient unfit for standard induction chemotherapy (includes both de novo and secondary AML), except in countries where approved therapies are available. Patients who are suitable for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and willing to receive it are excluded. 3.

At minimum exons 5, 6, 7 and 8 in the TP53 gene must be sequenced and determined to contain no mutations. The TP53 status must be obtained from a bone-marrow sample, collected no longer than 3 months before signing the main ICF. * Patient must be a candidate for serial bone marrow aspirate and/or biopsy according to the institutional guidelines and be willing to undergo a bone marrow aspirate and/or biopsy at screening, during and at the end of therapy on this study.
