10. Male subjects with a female partner of childbearing potential must agree to the use of at least two physician-approved contraceptive methods throughout the course of the study and should avoid fathering a child during the course of the study and for 3 months following the last dose of study drug.
11. Understand and voluntarily sign an informed consent document prior to any study related assessments/procedures being conducted.
12. Able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Age <18 at the time of signing the informed consent document.
- Ph-positive disease.
- Patient not regarded as candidates for allogeneic transplantation.
- Non-BFM based, asparginase containing induction (including HyperCVAD)
Concomitant Medications:
- Subject must not have been treated with a medical product without any global regulatory approvals within 30 days or 5 half-lives of the drug (whichever is shorter) prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 and must not be currently receiving AML treatment in another clinical interventional study.
- Cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A inducers and grapefruit/grapefruit products: Subject must not have received a known strong or moderate CYP3A inducer 7 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1. Subject must not have known medical conditions requiring chronic therapy of moderate CYP3A inducers.
- Cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A inhibitors: Subject must not have received a known strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors 7 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1. Subject must not have known medical conditions requiring chronic therapy of strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors (appendix 2).

- Subject must not have received any live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1.
- The subject must not be expected to need a live vaccination throughout study participation.
- The subject must not be expected to need a live vaccine in case of the following 7 conditions:
1. Less than 24 months following transplantation 2. Active GvHD 3. Lymphocyte count < 1,500/μL 4. Less than 12 months in remission 5. Less than 3 months after the last dose of oncological therapy 6. Less than 4 weeks after the most recent infusion of immunoglobulins 7. Less than 4 weeks after the most recent immunosuppressive therapy
• Subject must not have been treated with any investigational drug within 30 days prior to the first dose of study drug or is currently enrolled in another clinical study or was previously enrolled in this study
6. Known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).
7. No history of being positive for hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Inactive hepatitis carrier status or low viral hepatitis titers on antivirals (non-exclusionary medications) are not excluded.
8. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs.
9. Pregnant or lactating females.
10. Any significant medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the subject from participating in the study.
11. Any condition including the presence of laboratory abnormalities, which places the subject at unacceptable risk if he/she were to participate in the study.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Pre-transplant consolidation and post-transplant maintnance with navitoclax and venetoclax.
Patients will be treated with VEN 400 mg QD and NAV 50mg QD according to the RP2D presented by Pullarkat et al. (doi: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-20-1465) for two 28 day cycles. Following 2 cycles re-staging marrow including MRD assessment and imaging will be followed by alloSCT according to local protocol.Within 90 days from alloSCT patients will be started on VEN and NAV maintenance. For post-alloSCT maintenance a dose escalation scheme based on the BOIN design will be applied with a maximal dose of VEN 400 mg QD and NAV 50mg QD according to the RP2D presented by Pullarkat et al.
