Brief summary: This study compares the safety and effectiveness of giving rivogenlecleucel (BPX-501 T cells) to patients with AML or MDS post haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant compared to post-transplant cyclophosphamide.

Detailed description: In the Phase 2 portion, participants will undergo αβ T cell and CD19+ B cell depleted haploidentical HSCT followed by an infusion of a fixed dose of rivogenlecleucel (BPX-501 T cells) per kg. These participants will be evaluated for prespecified dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) for a 100-day dose limiting toxicity window.

Following completion of the Phase 2 portion, participants will be enrolled and randomized to one of two treatment arms in the Phase 3 portion.

* Arm A:αβ T-cell and CD19+ B-cell-depleted haplo-HSCT plus treatment with rivogenlecleucel
* Arm B: haplo-HSCT plus post transplant cyclophosphamide

Pediatric patients ages 12-17 will also be included in US only.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

Signed informed consent

Meeting institutional criteria to undergo allogenic HSCT

Age 18-70 y/o (12-70 y/o in US only)

Patients with AML or MDS as defined below:

AML Patients Patients with intermediate to adverse AML as defined by ELN (Dohner, 2017).

* AML in first complete remission (CR1) with high-risk features defined as \> 1 cycle of induction therapy required to achieve remission OR preceding MDS or myeloproliferative disease
* AML in CR1 with intermediate-risk features
* AML in second or subsequent complete response
* AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC)
* Therapy related AML in first or subsequent complete remission
* De novo AML in second or subsequent complete remission

MDS Patients

* High or very-high risk MDS by IPSS-R classification
* Intermediate risk or higher MDS patients who failed a hypomethylating agent

Lack of suitable conventional donor (i.e. HLA 10/10 related or unrelated donor)

At least a 5/10 genotypic identical haplotype match

The donor and recipient must be identical, at least one allele of each of the following genetic loci: HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, HLA-DRB1, and HLA-DQB1

Patients with adequate organ function

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status: 0-2

Exclusion Criteria:

* HLA 10/10 allele matched (HLA-A,-B,-C,-DRBl, and DQB1) related donor or unrelated donor
* Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant ≤ 3 months before enrollment
* Prior allogeneic transplantation
* Active CNS involvement by malignant cells (less than 2 months from the conditioning)
* Current uncontrolled clinically active bacterial, viral or fungal infection
* Positive HIV serology or viral RNA
* Pregnancy (positive serum or urine βHCG test) or breast-feeding
* Fertile men or women unwilling to use effective forms of birth control or abstinence for a year after transplantation
* Radiographic, histologic, or known history of cirrhosis
* Overlapping MDS and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) disease
* Patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL)
* Known hypersensitivity to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)
