1. Patients belong to one of three categories:

   • Myeloid neoplasm secondary to chemo-radiotherapy (t-AML/MDS) aged 60 and over with unfavorable cytogenetics (European Leukemia Network definition 2010), the first cancer must have been in remission for more than two years, except in situ carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma
   • Relapsed or refractory de novo AML aged 18 and over (multiple relapses allowed), regardless of the risk group, provided not being eligible for allogeneic bone marrow transplantation
   • de novo AML at diagnosis, aged 60 and over and considered unfit to benefit from induction chemotherapy associated with aplasia (at the discretion of the investigator)
2. Adequate glycemic balance defined by glycated hemoglobin ≤ 8%
3. Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) should receive effective contraception: a negative pregnancy blood test is required within 2 weeks before starting experimental treatment.
4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) ≤ 2
5. Absence of severe or active infection
6. Adequate systolic cardiac function : Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%
7. Adequate hepatic function: Aspartate Aminotransferase Test (AST) and Alanine Aminotransferase Test (ALT) ≤ 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN
8. Adequate renal function: serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN or calculated creatinine clearance > 60 ml/min.

    • For ethical reasons, the exclusion period before considering the possibility of participating in another clinical study with a new experimental molecule cannot be determined, yet each case will be discussed on an individual basis with the study coordinator.
