It must have been at least 14 days since the completion of therapy with pegfilgrastim (Neulasta®). * Biologic (anti-neoplastic agent): At least 7 days after the last dose of a biologic agent. For agents that have known adverse events occurring beyond 7 days after administration, this period must be extended beyond the time during which adverse events are known to occur. The duration of this interval must be discussed with the study chair. * Monoclonal antibodies: Maximum of 3 half-lives of the antibody or 21 days (whichever is shorter) must have elapsed after the last dose of monoclonal antibody. * Immunotherapy: At least 30 days from last infusion of chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CART) therapy or tumor vaccine. * Radiation Therapy (XRT): 1. ≥ 84 days must have passed, from the end of therapy, if patient received prior total body irradiation (TBI). 2. ≥ 42 days must have passed, from the end of therapy, if patient received craniospinal irradiation (CSI). 3. ≥ 14 days must have passed after whole brain radiotherapy or stereotactic radiation therapy. 4. No washout period is required for: i. Extramedullary site other than CNS that is a maximum 10 x 10 cm total radiation non-CNS field. If the field is \> 10 x 10 cm, a 14-day washout period is required. ii. Local ocular radiotherapy as long as subject has measurable/evaluable disease outside the radiation port. * Patients that have received other non-tagraxofusp CD123 targeting agents are eligible. Patients that have previously received tagraxofusp are not eligible. Organ Function Requirements Adequate Bone Marrow Function Defined as: * Patients should not be known to be refractory to red blood cell or platelet transfusions. * Blood counts are not required to be normal prior to enrollment on trial. However, platelet count must be ≥20,000/mm3 to initiate therapy (may receive platelet transfusions). Adequate Renal Function Defined as: * Patient must have a calculated creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR ≥ 70ml/min/1.73m2 OR a normal serum creatinine based on age/gender in the chart below: Maximum Serum Creatinine (mg/dL): * 1 to \< 2 years old - Male: 0.6, Female: 0.6 * 2 to \< 6 years old - Male:0.8, Female: 0.8 * 6 to \< 10 years old - Male: 1, Female: 1 * 10 to \< 13 years old - Male: 1.2, Female: 1.2 * 13 to \< 16 years old - Male: 1.5, Female: 1.4 * ≥ 16 years old - Male: 1.7, Female: 1.4 The threshold creatinine values in this Table were derived from the Schwartz formula for estimating GFR (Schwartz et al. J. Peds, 106:522, 1985) utilizing child length and stature data published by the CDC.

Adequate Cardiac Function Defined as: * Shortening fraction of ≥27% by echocardiogram, or * Ejection fraction of ≥ 50% by gated radionuclide study/echocardiogram. Adequate Pulmonary Function Defined as: * Pulse oximetry \> 94% on room air (\> 90% if at high altitude) * No evidence of dyspnea at rest and no exercise intolerance.

The definition of "investigational" for use in this protocol means any drug that is not licensed by the FDA, Health Canada or the Therapeutic Goods Administration to be sold in the countries they govern. (United States, Canada and Australia) * Anti-cancer Agents - Patients who are currently receiving or may receive while on therapy, other anti-cancer agents, radiation therapy or immunotherapy are not eligible \[with the exceptions being laid out in the inclusion criteria under 'Prior Therapy'\]. Intrathecal chemotherapy (at the discretion of the primary oncologist) may be given up to one week prior to the initiation of study treatment (day 1 therapy). * Anti-GVHD or agents to prevent organ rejection post-transplant - Patients who are receiving cyclosporine, tacrolimus or other agents to prevent either graft-versus-host disease post bone marrow transplant or organ rejection post-transplant are not eligible for this trial. At least 4 weeks must have elapsed after the last dose of GVHD meds. Infection Criteria - Patients are excluded if they have: * Positive blood culture within 48 hours of study enrollment; * Fever above 38.2 within 48 hours of study enrollment with clinical signs of infection.
