The presence of a high-severity OLE_VBA_AUTOCLOSE heuristic indicates the use of an Auto_Close macro, which is a common technique for executing malicious code upon document closure. The OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC heuristic further confirms that a VBA p-code auto-execution is used with the 'Shell' function, suggesting the macro attempts to run an external command. This is likely intended to download and execute a second-stage payload. No specific family could be identified.
