  2. SEVERITY OF MDS: Intermediate, High or Very High Risk
  3. NAME OF DRUG: KRT-232
  4. Aims and benefits: This Phase Ib/2 study that investigates the safety and effectiveness of KRT-232 when taken alone and in combination with Low-dose Cytarabine or Decitabine in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) including AML secondary to myeloproliferative disorders.
  5. Primary outcome: To determine the recommended dose of KRT-232 as well as its safety and tolerability. KRT-232 targets MDM2 thus preventing it from inhibiting p53. P53 has a role in arresting the tumour cell cycle and in promoting programmed death of tumour cells.
  6. Secondary outcome: To determine response rates.
