About this trial
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of inotuzumab ozogamicin and to see how well it works when given together with combination chemotherapy in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called inotuzumab, linked to a toxic agent called N-acetyl-gamma-calicheamicin dimethyl hydrazide (CalichDMH). Inotuzumab attaches to CD22 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers CalichDMH to kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as blinatumomab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy 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. Giving inotuzumab ozogamicin together with combination chemotherapy may be a better treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers

Patients unfit ≥ 18 - < 60 years of age with previously untreated ALL pre- B, Philadelphia chromosome (Ph-) negative or (Ph+) positive ALL (includes patients initiated on first cycle of hyper-CVAD before cytogenetics known. These patients could have received one or two cycles of chemotherapy with or without other TKIs and still eligible.

Disqualifiers

Patient with active heart disease (NYHA class > 3 as assessed by history and physical examination).
Patients with a cardiac ejection fraction (as measured by either MUGA or echocardiogram) < 40% are excluded.
Patients with active hepatitis are excluded.
