relapsed from, or refractory to, prior standard therapies
3. Refractory is defined as failure to achieve CR or CRi following:
1. At least one cycle of any anthracycline, cytarabine or fludarabine containing
induction regimen or persistence of disease on a nadir marrow following at least
one cycle of any anthracycline, cytarabine or fludarabine containing induction
regimen
2. Persistent disease after at least 2 cycles of a hypomethylating agent
(azacytidine or decitabine) with or without venetoclax

2017)6 after CR or CRi has been achieved with a prior chemotherapy or after disease
progression on a hypomethylating agent with or without venetoclax
5. ECOG PS 0-2

7. Women of child-bearing potential (i.e. women who are pre-menopausal or < 2 years post
menopausal or not surgically sterile) must practice a highly effective method of birth
control consistent with local regulations regarding the use of birth control methods.
Examples: use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception;
placement of an intra uterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS); male partner
sterilization (the vasectomized partner should be the sole partner for that subject);
true abstinence during and for 6 months after the last administered dose of CHAM or
HAM therapy and control sub-groups (MEC and FLAG), and must have a negative serum
pregnancy test within 1 week prior to treatment initiation and at 1st day of each
cycle and at the end of systemic exposure. (Note: pregnant patients are excluded
because the effects of CPI-613® (devimistat) on a fetus are unknown)
8. Fertile men who are sexually active with a woman of childbearing potential and has not
