Subjects with any documented CD4+ T cell hematologic malignancies. Male and female subjects with CD4+ T-cell hematologic malignancies with either relapsed or refractory disease (including those patients who have undergone a prior transplant (if allogeneic, subjects are eligible if there are no remaining donor cells) and patients with an inadequate response after 4-6 cycles of standard chemotherapy) are eligible. Response criteria for each disease subset will be evaluated based on Standard of Care Guidelines.
Creatinine clearance of > 60 ml/min (or otherwise non clinically-significant, per study investigator)
Disqualifiers

Female study participants of reproductive potential (see definition below) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test prior to initiation of conditioning chemotherapy, per research sites' clinical policy.
Uncontrolled active infection necessitating systemic therapy.
