Venetoclax and Vincristine in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell or B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Summary

This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of venetoclax and how well it works when given together with vincristine in treating patients with T-cell or B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Chemotherapy drugs, such as vincristine, 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 venetoclax together with vincristine may work better in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia compared to vincristine alone.
