Time to Response (TTR)	TTR was measured from the start of moxetumomab pasudotox administration to the first documentation of response (CR or PR) and was only assessed in participants who had achieved objective response (OR).	Baseline (Day 1) until Final Study Visit Post Therapy (up to 2 year after the last participant begins study drug treatment)
Duration of Objective Response (DOR)	DOR was measured from the first documentation of OR to the event of relapse. DOR was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method.	Baseline (Day 1) until Final Study Visit Post Therapy (up to 2 year after the last participant begins study drug treatment)
Duration of Stable Disease (SD)	Duration of SD was defined as the time period from start of moxetumomab pasudotox administration to the event of progressive disease (PD)/relapse.

Number of Participants With CD22 Expression Levels	CD22 Expression was analyzed using Prism® analysis. Flow cytometry was performed to quantitate the CD22 expression for the purpose of evaluating the relationship of CD22 expression with response to treatment.
