a. 18-81 years of age;
b. Disease classification and cytogenetics confirmed within 8 weeks prior to or during screening as follows:
• RAEB-1 per World Health Organization (WHO) MDS criteria (5% to <10% BM blasts)
• RAEB-2 per WHO MDS criteria (10% to <20% BM blasts)
• RAEB-t per modified French-American-British (FAB) classification (20% to 30% BM blasts)
c. At least one cytopenia (ANC < 1800/µL or platelet count < 100,000/µL or hemoglobin [Hgb] < 10 g/dL)
d. Progression (according to 2006 IWG criteria) at any time after initiation of AZA or DAC treatment or
Failure to achieve complete or partial response or hematological improvement (HI) (according to 2006 IWG) after at least six 4-week cycles of AZA or either four 4-week or four 6-week cycles of DAC administered or
Relapse after initial complete or partial response or HI (according to 2006 IWG criteria) or
Intolerance to AZA or DAC
e. Total duration of prior HMA therapy = 9 months and/or total = 9 cycles of prior HMA therapy in = 12 months
f. Last dose of AZA or DAC within 6 months before the planned date of randomization; however, must be off these treatments for = 4 weeks before randomization
g. Has failed to respond to, relapsed following, not eligible for, or opted not to participate in allogeneic stem cell transplantation
h. Off all treatments for MDS (including AZA and DAC) for = 4 weeks before randomization; growth factors (G-CSF, erythropoietin and TPO) and transfusions are allowed before and during the study as clinically indicated
i. Patients with 5q- syndrome should have failed to respond to or progressed on treatment with lenalidomide, where available and indicated
j. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1 or 2
k. Willing to adhere to the prohibitions and restrictions specified in this protocol
l. Patient must sign an Informed Consent Form indicating that the patient understands the purpose of and procedures required for the study and is willing to participate in the study. In case a patient is incapable of giving consent, the patient’s legally authorized representative (as defined by local regulation) must give consent. However, should the patient in any manner indicate the will not to participate this takes precedence and must be respected.

c. Patient previously diagnosed with AML (defined as a bone marrow or peripheral blood blast percentage >30%)
d. Suitable candidate to receive allogeneic stem cell transplantation; patient is eligible for study if a suitable candidate refuses to undergo an allogeneic stem cell transplant or a suitable donor cannot be found
