This is a research study to find out if a drug called blinatumomab is effective for treating patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) or measurable residual disease (MRD) CD19-positive mixed phenotypic acute leukemia (MPAL). Measurable Residual Disease (MRD) means that there are a small number of cancer cells remaining after treatment
This is a multicenter, non-randomized, open-label, phase II study evaluating the efficacy of blinatumomab to achieve the following objectives: 1. The best morphologic response after the first two cycles of therapy in subjects with morphologic R/R CD19-positive MPAL 2. MRD-negativity in subjects with CD19-positive MPAL in CR, or CRh, or CRi or CRp after receiving at least one chemotherapy block of standard ALL or AML treatment with MRD-positivity at a level of ≥ 0.1% using an assay with a minimum sensitivity of 0.01% The trial consists two groups (Group A and B) and three phases ( induction, consolidation and maintenance) of therapy. Subject will receive study drug blinatumomab by continuous IV infusion (CIV). Each treatment cycle consists of 28 days of blinatumomab CIV followed by a 14±3 days treatment-free interval for induction, 28±3 days treatment-free interval for consolidation, and 56±3 days treatment-free interval for maintenance Blinatumomab is approved by Food and Drug Administration \[FDA\] and European Medicines Agency \[EMA\] for use in people with another type of acute leukemia called acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) but not MPAL.

Blinatumomab (BLINCYTO , AMG 103, formerly also known as MT103 or bscCD19xCD3) is a novel single chain antibody construct in the class of the bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE®). Blinatumomab directs CD-3 positive effector memory T cells to CD19-positive target cells (Hoffmann et al, 2005; Dreier et al, 2002). The targeted CD19 antigen is constitutively expressed on normal B cells throughout a person's lifetime (Smet et al, 2011) and is highly conserved in B-cell malignancies (Tedder, 2009; Wang et al, 2012).

Cohort A response rate
The rate of achievement of CR+CRh after the first 2 cycles of blinatumomab in Cohort A subjects
Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year
Cohort B response rate
The rate of achievement of MRD-negativity (\< 0.01%) after the first 2 cycles of blinatumomab in Cohort B subjects
Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year
Cohort A survival
To evaluate the following outcomes in subjects with R/R CD19-positive MPAL * Achievement of MRD \< 0.01% within 2 cycles of treatment with blinatumomab * Relapsed free survival (RFS) * Event free survival (EFS) * Overall survival (OS) * Proceeding to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) after blinatumomab treatment * Overall incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) * CD19-negative and CD19-positive relapse post-blinatumomab * The type of lineage switch, as applicable, post-blinatumomab * CD19 expression in CSF relapse following blinatumomab, as applicable * CAR T-cell treatment of subjects with CSF relapse following blinatumomab and those subjects' outcomes, as applicable
Time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months
Cohort B survival
To evaluate the following outcomes in subjects with CD19-positive MPAL in CR/CRh/CRi/CRp after at least one chemotherapy block of standard ALL or AML treatment and detectable MRD at a level of ≥ 0.1% using an assay with a minimum sensitivity of 0.01% * Achievement of undetectable MRD (\< 0.01%) within one cycle of blinatumomab treatment * RFS * OS * Proceeding to allo-HSCT after blinatumomab treatment * Overall incidence and severity of AEs
Time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months
