This is an open-label, multi-center Phase Ib study of safety, PK of Lisaftoclax (APG-2575) as single agent or in combination with HHT or AZA in relapsed/refractory AML and related myeloid malignancies patients.

This study consists of three stages: The first stage is the Lisaftoclax (APG-2575) single agent dose-escalation study. The second stage is the Lisaftoclax (APG-2575) combined with HHT/AZA dose-escalation study. The third stage is the MTD/RP2D expansion cohort study of the combination regimen.
