About this trial

This research study is studying a drug as a possible treatment for diagnosis of AML, BPDCN and high-risk MDS.

The interventions involved in this study are:

* SL-401 * Azacitidine * Venetoclax

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Azacitidine

    Drug

    Chemotherapy

  • SL-401

    Drug

    SL-401 works by targeting leukemia cells (blasts), and also possibly by stopping or slowing the growth of cancer stem cells, which are the undeveloped cells which can develop into cancer cells.

  • Venetoclax

    Drug

    Venetoclax is a BH3-mimetic. Venetoclax blocks the anti-apoptotic B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) protein, leading to programmed cell death of CLL cells. Overexpression of Bcl-2 in some lymphoid malignancies has sometimes shown to be linked with increased resistance to chemotherapy.
