Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. 3-AP may help fludarabine kill more cancer cells by making them more sensitive to the drug.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of fludarabine when given together with 3-AP in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia, chronic leukemia, or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome.
