• Pulmonary disorder (e.g., DLCO ≤65% or FEV1 ≤65%)
• Creatinine clearance 30-45 mL/min based on Cockcroft-Gault or Modified of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formular
• Hepatic disorder with total bilirubin between 1.5 and 3 times the ULN 5. Patient must have a projected life expectancy of ≥12 weeks

Exclusion Criteria

• Patient has received treatment with the following:
• A hypomethylating agent, venetoclax, and/or chemotherapeutic agent for AML, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), or myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPS/MPN)

• Patient is receiving concurrent corticosteroid therapy as an anticancer drug (any dose).
• Patient has known active CNS involvement with AML. Patients who received intrathecal chemotherapy for prophylaxis of AML in the CNS prior to enrollment may enroll in this study.
• Creatinine clearance <30ml/min based on Cockcroft-Gault or MDRD formular.
• Bilirubin of >3xULN in the absence of Gilbert's Syndrome.
• AST and/or ALT >3 times the ULN.
