This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of palbociclib or tazemetostat in combination with CPX-351 in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). CPX-351 is a combination of the chemotherapy drugs, daunorubicin and cytarabine, which is the standard of care for AML. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Palbociclib and tazemetostat are enzyme inhibitor drugs that are approved for treating certain cancers but not AML. These drugs may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving CPX-351 chemotherapy with enzyme inhibitors palbociclib or tazemetostat may kill more cancer cells.
