Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: •History of any reaction or hypersensitivity associated with any component of the study interventions. •Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, •Acute or chronic, clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic, or renal functional abnormality •Recurrent history or uncontrolled neurological disorders or seizures. •Any clinically significant hematological and/or biochemical laboratory abnormality. •Clinical conditions representing a contraindication to IM injections and/or blood draws. •Any behavioral or cognitive impairment or psychiatric disease that may interfere with the participant’s ability to participate in the study. •Confirmed positive COVID-19 from 28 days before the 1st dose •Acute or chronic illness which may be severe enough to preclude participation. •Any other clinical condition that, might pose additional risk to the participant due to participation in the study. •All medical conditions will be assessed by the Investigator who may use his/her discretion to decide if the participant meets the exclusion criteria. •Use of any investigational or non-registered product from (D-30 to 1) before the 1st dose of study interventions, or planned use during the study. •A vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol administered 14D pre 1st dose to 28D post last dose, with the exception of flu vaccines or COVID-19 vaccine. •Administration of long-acting immune-modifying drugs any time during the study period. •Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products or plasma derivatives From 3Mo before 1st admin or throughout the study. •Chronic admin of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs from 3 Mo before 1st dose. •Prior receipt of an experimental Shigella vaccine or live Shigella challenge. •Known exposure to Shigella during lifetime of the participant as confirmed during interview with the participant’s parent(s)/LAR(s) or documented by participant’s records. •Child in care
