•Patients must:
•ohave one of the following diagnoses:
•\-AML or high risk myelodysplasia (RAEB2 WHO criteria)
•obe 18 years or older
•ohave given written informed consent
•For AML and RAEB\-2
•Haemopoiesis must be impaired by the disease as judged by an abnormal FBC (International Working Group response criteria in myelodysplasia \[2]) and, where there is doubt as to the cause of impaired haemopoiesis, there must be bone marrow aspirate evidence that impaired haemopoiesis is due to cancer involvement of the bone marrow.
•Abnormal values are haemoglobin level less than 11 g/dL or RBC transfusion dependence, platelet count less than 100 x 109/L or platelet\-transfusion dependence, absolute neutrophil count less than 1\.0x 109/L. Pretreatment baseline measures of cytopenias are averages of at least 2 measurements (not influenced by transfusions, ie, no RBC transfusions for at least 1 week and no platelet transfusions for at least 3 days) over at least 1 week prior to therapy.
•For CLL and BNHL
•Patients must have either measurable disease (tumour cells in blood at \>5 x 109/L, or lymphadenopathy\> 1cm) or bone marrow failure due to disease as stated above for MDS/AML.

•Patient considered suitable for other forms of anti\-cancer therapy (either accepted standard therapy or therapy in the context of a clinical trial) other than palliative corticosteroids or hydroxyurea
•Patient has eGFR\<40ml/min
•Patient known to be allergic to trial drugs
