You may be eligible if
Previously treated, relapsed or refractory ALL (including lymphoblastic lymphoma and Burkitt's subtypes) with measurable disease.
Performance status ≤3 (ECOG).
All ages are eligible. Those aged 12 years or older may be counted towards the MTD in the Phase I portion of the trial. Pediatric patients are eligible, but must be treated at a dose level previously tested in an adult (one full course).
Adequate liver function (bilirubin ≤2 x upper limit normal), and renal function (creatinine ≤2 x upper limit normal).
Negative pregnancy test in females of childbearing potential.
You may not be if

Concurrent treatment with other anti-cancer agents other than dexamethasone.
Known CNS leukemia or lymphoma requiring intrathecal or craniospinal radiation therapy or with CNS neuropathy limiting evaluation of study drug. Patients with controlled CNS disease (no progression signs or symptoms at the time of study entry) may be eligible after approval by the Principal Investigator. Lumbar puncture not required in asymptomatic patients.
Prior history of Grade 3 or 4 sensory or motor neuropathy related to chemotherapeutic treatment, or persistent Grade 2 or greater active neuropathy.
