This research is being done to assess the therapeutic activity of a promising combination (azacitidine and venetoclax) versus conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy in induction-eligible patients with acute myeloid leukemia. This study involves the following: * Venetoclax and azacitidine (investigational combination) * Cytarabine and idarubicin or daunorubicin (per standard of care) or Liposomal daunorubicin and cytarabine (per standard of care)

Primary Outcome

Primary endpoint is event-free-survival of patients treated with venetoclax and azacitidine compared to patients treated with standard induction with either 7+3 regimen or liposomal daunorubicin and cytarabine Events are described in the protocol and will include * Progressive Disease as defined above * Any change in therapy due to leukemic persistence. * Transition to hospice * Relapse following CR, CRi, or CRh * Any death Assessments of differences in EFS between the randomized arms will be
