Summary

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Must be greater than or equal to (>=) 18 years of age and, in selected countries,
adolescents aged 12 years and greater and weighing >=30 kilogram (kg) at time of
randomization.

2. Must undergo deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA)-based human leukocyte antigen (HLA)
matching and be 8 of 8 or 7 of 8 HLA-matched (singe allele or antigen mismatch at
HLA-A, -B, and -C, and HLA-DRB1 is allowable) unrelated hematopoietic stem cell
transplantation (HSCT) from either peripheral blood or bone marrow stem cells for a
hematologic malignancy or myeloproliferative disorder.

3. For whom a myeloablative conditioning or reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) is
planned.

4. Allo-HSCT eligible (meeting institutional criteria)-participants planned medical care
should include aGvHD prophylaxis with a combination of calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)
(cyclosporine [CYS] or tacrolimus [TAC]) and methotrexate (MTX) or CNI and
mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). With the exception of antithymocyte globulin (ATG)
(antithymocyte globulin-Fresenius [ATG-F] or thymoglobulin), all other therapies,
approved or investigational, for GvHD prophylaxis are excluded.

5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of less than or equal to
(<=) 2 for participants aged >=18 years at randomization or >=60 percent (%) using the
Karnofsky performance status for adolescent subjects aged >=16 years at randomization
or the Lansky performance status for adolescent participants aged 12 to less than (<)
16 years at randomization.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Had prior allo- HSCT.

2. Planned umbilical cord blood transplant or planned to receive posttransplant
cyclophosphamide, in vivo or ex vivo T cell-depleted hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs)
with the exception of ATG (ATG-F or thymoglobulin).

3. Planned allo-HSCT for nonmalignant hematological disorders (example, aplastic anemia,
sickle cell anemia, thalassemias, Fanconi anemia or immunodeficiency).
