Treatment: Drugs - Methotrexate
Treatment: Drugs - Hydrocortisone

Experimental: Single Arm - Patients will receive 2 doses of EZN-3042 (and intrathecal cytarabine, conditionally) prior to initiating systemic therapy with vincristine, doxorubicin, prednisone and PEG-asparaginase. Patients with CNS 1 or 2 will also receive intrathecal methotrexate, and patients with CNS 3 will also receive triple intrathecal therapy (methotrexate, hydrocortisone, and cytarabine).


Treatment: Drugs: EZN-3042
Dose will be assigned at study entry. To be given as a 2 hour intravenous infusion on days -5, -2, 8, 15, 22 and 29. Dose levels: L0 (level zero): 1.5 mg/kg, L1: 2.5 mg/kg, L2: 5 mg/kg, L3: 6.5 mg/kg

Treatment: Drugs: Cytarabine
Given intrathecally on day -6. Patients who may have received intrathecal chemotherapy within 7 days of day 0 as part of their prior maintenance chemotherapy (e.g. before the diagnosis of relapse) or as part of the diagnostic workup will not receive this dose of IT cytarabine. If given, dose is defined by age:

1-1.99 years: 30 mg 2-2.99 years: 50 mg

Greater than or equal to 3 years: 70 mg.

Cytarabine is also part of the triple intrathecal therapy given to CNS 3 patients on Days 8, 15, 22 and 29. Dose is defined by age:

1. - 1.99 years: 16 mg
2. - 2.99 years: 20 mg
3. - 8.99 years: 24 mg

Greater than or equal to 9 years: 30 mg

Treatment: Drugs: Doxorubicin
60 mg/m2/day given intravenous infusion (IV) over 15 minutes on day 1.

Treatment: Drugs: Prednisone
40 mg/m2/day divided BID or TID given orally on days 1 through 29. For patients who are unable to tolerate prednisone orally, substitute IV methylprednisolone at 80% of the oral prednisone dose.

Treatment: Drugs: Vincristine
1.5 mg/m2/day (maximum dose 2 mg) given intravenous push over 1 minute or infusion via mini-bag as per institutional policy on days 1, 8, 15 and 22.

Treatment: Drugs: PEG-asparaginase
2500 IU/m2 intramuscular injection on days 2, 9, 16, 23. If available, Erwinia L-asparaginase may be substituted for pegaspargase in patients with clinically significant prior allergies to pegaspargase.

Treatment: Drugs: Methotrexate
Given intrathecally to patients with CNS1 or CNS2 disease at the dose defined by age below on days 15 and 36:

1-1.99 years: 8 mg 2-2.99 years: 10 mg 3-8.99 years: 12 mg

Greater than or equal to 9 years: 15 mg

Given as part of the Triple intrathecal therapy to patients with CNS 3 disease at the doses defined by age below on days 8, 15, 22 and 29:

1. - 1.99 years: 8 mg
2. - 2.99 years: 10 mg
3. - 8.99 years: 12 mg

Greater than or equal to 9 years: 15 mg

Treatment: Drugs: Hydrocortisone
Given as part of the Triple intrathecal therapy to patients with CNS 3 disease at the doses defined by age below on days 8, 15, 22 and 29:

1. - 1.99 years: 8 mg
2. - 2.99 years: 10 mg
3. - 8.99 years: 12 mg

Greater than or equal to 9 years: 15 mg

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Patients must be =1 and = 21 years of age when originally diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
* Patients must have relapsed or refractory B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with =25% blasts in the bone marrow (M3), with or without extramedullary disease.
* Patients may have central nervous system 1, 2 or 3 disease.
* Karnofsky Performance Level = 50 for patients > 10 years of age and Lansky = 50 for patients = 10 years of age.
* Patients must have had 2 or more prior therapeutic attempts defined as:

* Relapse after going into remission from re-induction for the first or subsequent relapse (ie: 2nd , 3rd, 4th...relapse), or
* Refractory disease after first or greater relapse and a single re-induction attempt. *Please note, Enrollment will be restricted to at most one refractory patient in each cohort of 3 patients per dose level.
* Patients with ALL who are refractory to frontline induction therapy are not eligible.
* Patients who relapse while receiving standard ALL maintenance chemotherapy will not be required to have a waiting period before entry onto this study.
* Patients who relapse when they are not receiving standard ALL maintenance therapy must have fully recovered from grade 3 or 4 toxic effects of all prior chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy prior to entering this study.
* Cytotoxic Therapy: It must be at least 14 days since the completion of cytotoxic therapy (excluding hydroxyurea) at the time of study enrollment.
