This study will look at the efficacy and safety of vedolizumab in the prophylaxis of intestinal aGvHD in participants undergoing allo-HSCT transplantation. The study will enroll approximately 558 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) in 1:1 ratio to one of the two treatment groups-which will remain undisclosed to the participant and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need) along with background GvHD prophylaxis regimen: * Vedolizumab 300 mg * Placebo (dummy inactive intravenous infusion) This multi-center trial will be conducted Worldwide.
