What will be asked of you

If you decide to take part you will receive SL-172154 as an infusion into a vein once a week. The infusion will take about 60-120 minutes. If receiving azacitidine, it will be given to you as an infusion in your vein and will take about 10-40 minutes or as an injection under the skin once daily for 7 days every 28 days. If you receive venetoclax, it will be administered orally every day. At each visit you will be asked questions about your health and any other medications you're taking. Blood draws for routine tests should be expected at every onsite visit. Throughout the study, a test will be performed that measures the amount of oxygen in your blood.
