About this trial
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoblastic lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia, or double-hit lymphoma/leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate liposome, dexamethasone and bortezomib, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Incidence of adverse events
The severity of the toxicities will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events.
Overall response rate (ORR) (Phase II)
Will be estimated along with the exact 95% confidence interval.
Secondary outcomes
Overall survival
Will be estimated using the method of Kaplan and Meier. The log-rank tests will be used to compare the time-to-event outcomes among subgroups of patients.
Event free survival
Will be estimated using the method of Kaplan and Meier. The log-rank tests will be used to compare the time-to-event outcomes among subgroups of patients.
