- Percentage of Participants with Complete Response (CR) for B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) [ Time Frame: Within 2 cycles (each cycle of 28-days) ]Complete response based on the modified National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) criteria is defined as: Less than 5 percent (%) blasts in the bone marrow; No evidence of circulating blasts or extramedullary disease; Full recovery of peripheral blood counts: Platelets greater than (>)100*10^9/liter (L) and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >1.0*10^9/L.
- Percentage of Participants with Complete Response (CR) for T-cell ALL [ Time Frame: End of Cycle 1 (each cycle of 28 days) ]Complete response based on the modified NCCN criteria is defined as: Less than 5% blasts in the bone marrow; No evidence of circulating blasts or extramedullary disease; Full recovery of peripheral blood counts: Platelets >100*10^9/L and ANC >1.0*10^9/L.
- Overall Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: approximately 3 years ]ORR is defined as percentage of participants who achieve CR or complete response with only partial hematological recovery (CRi) according to NCCN criteria. NCCN criteria for CR: Less than 5 % blasts in the bone marrow; No evidence of circulating blasts or extramedullary disease; Full recovery of peripheral blood counts: Platelets (>)100 x10^9/L and ANC >1.0x10^9/L; CRi: Less than 5% blasts in the bone marrow; No evidence of circulating blasts or extramedullary disease; Partial recovery of peripheral blood counts not meeting criteria for CR.
- Event-Free Survival (EFS) [ Time Frame: approximately 3 years ]EFS is defined as the time from the date of first treatment to the first documented treatment failure (that is [ie], disease progression) or date of relapse from CR or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Progressive disease: increase of at least 25% in the absolute number of circulating peripheral or bone marrow blasts, or development of new extramedullary disease.
- Relapse-Free Survival (RFS) [ Time Frame: approximately 3 years ]RFS is defined as the time from CR to relapse from CR or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Relapse from CR is defined as: Reappearance of leukemia blasts in the peripheral blood or more than (>) 5% blasts in the bone marrow; Reappearance of extramedullary disease or new extramedullary disease.
- Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: approximately 3 years ]OS is defined as the time from the date of first treatment to the date of death due to any cause.
- Percentage of Participants who are Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negative [ Time Frame: approximately 3 years ]Percentage of participants who are MRD negative will be assessed. MRD negative is defined as less than (<) 0.01% abnormal population counts to nucleated mononuclear cells when measured by flow.
- Percentage of Participants who Receive an Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) [ Time Frame: approximately 3 years ]The percentage of participants who received an allogeneic HSCT after treatment with daratumumab will be assessed.
- Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Daratumumab [ Time Frame: Cohort 1 Cycles 1-9 (each cycle is 28 days); Cohort 2 Cycles 1-2 (each cycle is 28 days) ]The Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.
- Minimum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmin) of Daratumumab [ Time Frame: Cohort 1 Cycles 1-9 (each cycle is 28 days); Cohort 2 Cycles 1-2 (each cycle is 28 days) ]The Cmin is the minimum observed plasma concentration.
- Number of Participants with Anti-Daratumumab Antibodies [ Time Frame: approximately 3 years ]The incidence of anti-daratumumab antibodies will be assessed as number of participant with anti-daratumumab antibodies.
- Concentration of Daratumumab in Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) [ Time Frame: Cohort 1 Cycles 1-9 (each cycle is 28 days); Cohort 2 Cycles 1-2 (each cycle is 28 days) ]Concentration of daratumumab in CSF will be assessed.
