Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of daratumumab in addition to standard chemotherapy in pediatric participants with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)/lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL) and T-cell ALL/LL as measured by the complete response (CR) rate.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Cohort 1: Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) for B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)
Complete response based on the modified National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) criteria was 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 cells/liter (L) and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>1.0\*10\^9 cells/L. This outcome measure was planned to be analyzed for specified arm only.
Up to 2 cycles, that is, up to 56 days (each cycle of 28-days)
Cohort 2: Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) for T-cell ALL
Complete response based on the modified NCCN criteria was 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 cells/L and ANC \>1.0\*10\^9 cells/L. This outcome measure was planned to be analyzed for specified arms only.
End of Cycle 1 (that is, up to 28 days)

Study Arms (2)
Cohort 1: B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)/LL
EXPERIMENTALCohort 1 will include participants with B cell ALL/LL in second or greater relapse or refractory to at least 2 prior induction regimens. Participant will receive daratumumab in combination with vincristine and prednisone.
Cohort 2: T-Cell ALL/LL
EXPERIMENTALCohort 2 will include participants with T-cell ALL/LL in first relapse or refractory to at least 1 prior induction/consolidation regimen. Participant will receive daratumumab in combination with vincristine, prednisone, doxorubicin and peg-asparaginase in Cycle 1 and daratumumab in combination with cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, 6- mercaptopurine and methotrexate in Cycle 2.
Interventions
Participant will receive daratumumab 16 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) in cohort 1 and cohort 2.
Participant will receive vincristine 1.5 milligram per meter square (mg/m\^2) in cohort 1 and cohort 2.
Participant will receive prednisone 40 mg/m\^2 in cohort 1 and cohort 2.
Participant will receive peg-asparaginase 2500 units per meter square (U/m\^2) in cohort 2.
Participant will receive cyclophosphamide 1 gram per meter square (g/m\^2) once in cohort 2.
Participant will receive 6-mercaptopurine 60 mg/m\^2 orally daily in cohort 2.
Participant will receive methotrexate 5 g/m\^2 intravenously (IV) in cohort 2.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Documented acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL) as defined by the criteria below:
- B-cell cohort: Stage 1; ALL in second or greater relapse or refractory to 2 prior induction regimens with greater than or equal to (\>=) 5 percent (%) blasts in the bone marrow and aged 1 to less than (\<) 18 years. Stage 2; ALL in second or greater relapse or refractory to 2 prior induction regimens with (\>=) 5% blasts in the bone marrow and aged 1 to 30 years.

Stage 2; ALL in first relapse or refractory to 1 prior induction/consolidation regimen with (\>=) 5% blasts in the bone marrow and aged 1 to 30 years. LL in first relapse or refractory to 1 prior induction/consolidation regimen biopsy proven and with evidence of measurable disease by radiologic criteria and aged 1 to 30 years

- Adequate hematology laboratory values at Cycle 1 Day 1 pre-dosing defined as follows:
- Hemoglobin (\>=) 7.5 gram per deciliter (g/dL) (\[\>=\] 5 millimole per liter \[mmol/L\]; prior red blood cell \[RBC\] transfusion is permitted)

- Adequate renal function defined as normal serum creatinine for the participant's age or creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (GFR) \>= 70 milliliter per minute per 1.73 square meter (mL/min/1.73 m\^2) prior to enrollment
- Adequate liver function prior to enrollment defined as:
- Alanine aminotransferase level less than or equal to (\<=) 2.5\* the upper limit of normal (ULN),
- Aspartate aminotransferase level (\<=) 2.5\* ULN, and
- Total bilirubin (\<=) 2\* ULN or direct bilirubin level (\<=) 2.0\* ULN
You may not qualify if:
- Received an allogeneic hematopoietic transplant within 3 months of screening
- Active acute graft-versus-host disease of any grade or chronic graft-versus-host disease of Grade 2 or higher
- Received immunosuppression post hematopoietic transplant within 1 month of study entry
- Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) B-cell ALL eligible for tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy
- Has either of the following:
- Evidence of dyspnea at rest or oxygen saturation (\<=) 94 percent (%).
- Known moderate or severe persistent asthma within the past 2 years, or uncontrolled asthma of any classification
- Received an investigational drug, was vaccinated with live attenuated vaccines, or used an invasive investigational medical device within 4 weeks before the planned first dose of study drug, or is currently being treated in an investigational study
- Known to be seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
- Any one of the following:
- Seropositive for hepatitis B (defined by a positive test for hepatitis B surface antigen \[HBsAg\]). Participants with resolved infection (ie, participants who are HBsAg negative but positive for antibodies to hepatitis B core antigen \[anti-HBc\] and/or antibodies to hepatitis B surface antigen \[anti-HBs\]) must be screened using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) measurement of hepatitis B virus (HBV) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) levels. Those who are PCR positive will be excluded
- Known to be seropositive for hepatitis C (except in the setting of a sustained virologic response \[SVR\], defined as aviremia at least 12 weeks after completion of antiviral therapy)
