- Intermediate-2 and high-risk MDS according to the International Prognostic Scoring System, in the setting of 5-30% bone marrow blasts
- CMML with \>= 10% marrow blasts without myeloproliferative disorder (white blood cell count of \<13,000/ µL)
- Patients with no prior azacitidine treatment, or with prior azacitidine treatment that meet one of the following criteria:
- Patients failing to achieve haematological improvement, partial remission, marrow complete remission or complete remission after 3 cycles of azacitidine or progressed at any time after start of azacitidine

- Any significant concurrent psychiatric disorder or social situation that according to the investigator's judgment would compromise patient's safety or compliance, interfere with consent, study participation, or interpretation of study results
