What this study is testing
-For the phase I: to establish the RP2D of AZA based and LDAC based triple combination with Quizartinib and Venetoclax schedules. -For the phase II: to assess and to compare the CR/CRi rate of AZA based and LDAC based triple combination with Quizartinib and Venetoclax schedules.

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Newly diagnosed AML.

- Patient must be considered be ineligible for treatment with a standard cytarabine and anthracycline induction regimen due to age or co-morbidities defined by the following criteria: 3.1. ≥ 71 years of age; 3.2. ≥ 60 to 70 years of age with at least one of the following co-morbidities: ECOG Performance Status of 2 or 3; Cardiac history of CHF requiring treatment or Ejection Fraction ≤ 55% or chronic stable angina; DLCO ≤ 65% or FEV1 ≤ 65% or significant history of chronic pulmonary obstructive; Creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min to < 50 ml/min Moderate hepatic impairment with total bilirubin, SGPT or SGOT > 1.5 to ≤ 3.0 × ULN Non active/controlled prior neoplastic disease Any other patient´s comorbidity or disease condition that the physician judges to be incompatible with intensive chemotherapy must be reviewed and approved by the Trial Coordinators before study enrollment (e.g, prior MDS or MPS, high-risk cytogenetics)
- ECOG performance status ≤ 3.
- Male subjects who are sexually active, must agree, from Study Day 1 through at least 120 days after the last dose of study drug, to practice the protocol specified contraception.
- Female subjects must be either postmenopausal for at least 1 year before screening OR permanently surgical sterile (bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy) OR Women of Childbearing Potential (WOCBP) must agree to practice 1 highly effective method and 1 additional effective (barrier) method of contraception, at the same time, from the time of signing the informed consent through 4 months after the last dose of study drug (female and male condoms should not be used together), or Agree to practice true abstinence, when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. (Periodic abstinence [e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods] withdrawal, spermicides only, and lactational amenorrhea are not acceptable methods of contraception). Female subjects of childbearing potential must have negative results for pregnancy test performed and must not be lactating and breastfeeding
You likely can't join if

- Prior treatment with other FLT3-ITD or BCL-2 inhibitors.
- Known uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease, including any of the following: a) Bradycardia of less than 50 beats per minute, unless the subject has a pacemaker; b) QTcF interval >450 msec; c) Diagnosis of or suspicion of long QT syndrome (including family history of long QT syndrome); d) Systolic blood pressure ≥180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥110 mmHg; e) History of clinically relevant ventricular arrhythmias (eg, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, or Torsade de Pointes); f) History of second (Mobitz II) or third degree heart block (subjects with pacemakers are eligible if they have no history of fainting or clinically relevant arrhythmias while using the pacemaker); g) History of uncontrolled angina pectoris or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to Screening; h) History of New York Heart Association Class 3 or 4 heart failure; i) Known history of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤45% or less than the institutional lower limit of normal; j) Complete left bundle branch block;
- Prior therapy for AML (except hydroxiurea).
- Subject enrolling into a dose-escalation cohort must not have received a known strong or moderate inducer or inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A within 7 days before the first Quizartinib or Venetoclax dose. Subject enrolling into a safety expansion cohort must not have received a known strong or moderate inducer or strong inhibitor of CYP3A within 7 days before the first Quizartinib or Venetoclax dose.
