* Peripheral white blood count \>20,000 per microliter despite treatment with Hydroxyurea
* previous cytotoxic therapy exceeding oral Hydroxyurea or \>2 courses of treatment with Azacytidine, Decitabine or low dose Ara-C alone or in combination with Venetoclax
* previous allogeneic blood stem cell transplantation
* symptomatic CNS-involvement with MDS; CMML or sAML
* any serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the subject from signing the informed consent form
* pregnant or lactating females
* Refusal to use safe contraceptive methods during the study period
* Cardiac history of CHF (\>NYHA 2) requiring treatment or Ejection Fraction \< 40% or chronic stable angina

* known hypersensitivity to Venetoclax, Fludarabine, Amsacrine, Ara-C or Treosulfan
* concurrent use of other anti-cancer agents or treatments except Hydroxyurea and a maximum of 2 courses of Azacytidine or Decitabine
* positive for HIV or replicating infectious hepatitis, type A, B, C or E
* prior history of malignancy other than MDS, CMML, sAML (except basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast) unless the subject has been free of disease for ≥ 2 years
* participation in another study with ongoing use of unlicensed investigational product from 28 days or \<5 half-lifes of the investigational product before study enrollment
