The duration of this interval must be discussed with the study chair and the study-assigned research coordinator. * Interleukins, interferons and cytokines (other than hematopoietic growth factors): \>/= 21 days after the completion of interleukins, interferon or cytokines (other than hematopoietic growth factors). * Stem cell infusions (with or without total body irradiation \[TBI\]): * Allogeneic (non-autologous) bone marrow or stem cell transplant, or stem cell boost: \>/= 84 days after infusion and no evidence of graft versus host disease (GVHD) * Donor leukocyte infusion: \>/= 42 days * Autologous stem cell infusion including boost infusion: \>/= 42 days * Cellular therapy: \>/= 42 days after the completion of any type of cellular therapy (e.g. modified T cells, natural killer \[NK\] cells, dendritic cells, etc.) * Radiation therapy (XRT)/external beam irradiation including protons: \>/= 14 days after local XRT; \>/= 84 days after TBI, craniospinal XRT or if radiation to \>/= 50% of the pelvis; \>/= 42 days if other substantial bone marrow (BM) radiation * Radiopharmaceutical therapy (e.g., radiolabeled antibody, 131I-MIBG): \>/= 42 days after systemically administered radiopharmaceutical therapy * Patients must not have received prior exposure to flotetuzumab. * Platelet count \>/= 20,000/mm\^3 (may receive platelet transfusions) * These patients must not be known to be refractory to red cell or platelet transfusion * Hemoglobin \>/= 8.0 g/dL at baseline (may receive red blood cell \[RBC\] transfusions) * These patients must not be known to be refractory to red cell or platelet transfusion. * Creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (GFR) \>/= 70 ml/min/1.73 m\^2 or * A serum creatinine based on age/gender as follows: * Age: Maximum serum creatinine (mg/dL) * 1 to \< 2 years: male - 0.6; female - 0.6 * 2 to \< 6 years: male - 0.8; female - 0.8 * 6 to \< 10 years: male - 1; female - 1 * 10 to \< 13 years: male - 1.2; female - 1.2 * 13 to \< 16 years: male - 1.5; female - 1.4 * \>/= 16 years: male - 1.7; female - 1.4 * Bilirubin (sum of conjugated + unconjugated) =/\< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age regardless of baseline * Serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT) (alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\]) =/\< 3 x ULN. For the purpose of this study, the ULN for SGPT is 45 U/L regardless of baseline. * Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) (aspartate aminotransferase \[AST/\< 3 x ULN.

Any grade of DTR is eligible. * All patients and/or their parents or legally authorized representatives must sign a written informed consent. Assent, when appropriate, will be obtained according to institutional guidelines. * Permanent central access should be established with a central line. A central line that contains 2 lumens is preferred. Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnant or breast-feeding women will not be entered on this study because there is yet no available information regarding human fetal or teratogenic toxicities.

Males or females of reproductive potential may not participate unless they have agreed to use an effective contraceptive method for the duration of study therapy and for 12 weeks after flotetuzumab discontinuation. * Patients must be off steroids (unless physiologic replacement dosing) for at least 7 days prior to enrollment. If used to modify immune adverse events related to prior therapy, \>/= 14 days must have elapsed since last dose of corticosteroid. * Patients who are currently receiving another investigational drug are not eligible. * Patients who are currently receiving other anti-cancer agents are not eligible (except hydroxyurea, which may be continued until 24 hours prior to start of protocol therapy). * Patients who are receiving cyclosporine, tacrolimus or other agents to treat graft-versus-host disease post bone marrow transplant are not eligible for this trial. * Patient has French-American-British classification (FAB) type M3 leukemia (acute promyelocytic leukemia) or identification of t(15;17). * Patient has isolated CNS involvement or isolated extramedullary relapse. * Patient with known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection are eligible if he or she has a negative HIV serology and an undetectable viral load. * Patient known to have one of the following concomitant genetic syndromes: Bloom syndrome, ataxia-telangiectasia, Fanconi anemia, Kostmann syndrome, Shwachman-Diamond syndrome or any other known bone marrow failure syndrome.
