This randomized phase III trial studies how well imatinib mesylate works in combination with two different chemotherapy regimens in treating patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Imatinib mesylate has been shown to improve outcomes in children and adolescents with Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) ALL when given with strong chemotherapy, but the combination has many side effects. This trial is testing whether a different chemotherapy regimen may work as well as the stronger one but have fewer side effects when given with imatinib. The trial is also testing how well the combination of chemotherapy and imatinib works in another group of patients with a type of ALL that is similar to Ph+ ALL. This type of ALL is called ABL-class fusion positive ALL", and because it is similar to Ph+ ALL, is thought it will respond well to the combination of agents used to treat Ph+ ALL.

This phase III trial studies rituximab after stem cell transplant and to see how well it works compared with rituximab alone in treating patients with in minimal residual disease-negative mantle cell lymphoma in first complete remission. Immunotherapy with rituximab, may induce changes in bodys immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant helps kill any cancer cells that are in the body and helps make room in the patients bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. After treatment, stem cells are collected from the patient's blood and stored. More chemotherapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. Giving rituximab with or without stem cell transplant may work better in treating patients with mantle cell lymphoma.

The purpose of this Phase 2/3, randomized, multisite, open-label, dose confirmation, and
expansion study is to evaluate the safety, and efficacy of zilovertamab vedotin (ZV) in
combination with standard of care options for the treatment of rrDLBCL. This study will be
divided into 2 parts: Dose Confirmation (Part 1) and Efficacy Expansion (Part 2) and will
enroll participants who are at least 18 years of age with rrDLBCL. The hypotheses are: ZV in
combination with rituximab, gemcitabine, and oxaliplatin (R-GemOx) is superior to R-GemOx
with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) per Lugano response criteria by blinded
independent review committee (BICR); and that ZV in combination with bendamustine rituximab
(BR) is superior to BR with respect to PFS per Lugano response criteria by BICR.
