In Part A only: Have a reported history or evidence of (scar) of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination. 5. Are overall healthy in the clinical judgment of the investigator based on the medical history and clinical assessment (including physical examination, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests, and 12-lead electrocardiogram [ECG]). In Part B only for PLWH: 5.1.Have documented HIV infection fulfilling all of the following criteria: 5.1.1. Have anti-HIV antibodies at screening. 5.1.2. Have been on antiretroviral therapy for at least three consecutive months at screening. 5.1.3. Have documented HIV RNA <200 copies/mL at screening. 5.1.4. Have cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4)+ T-cell counts =200 cells/µL at screening. 5.1.5. Have had tuberculosis (TB) preventive treatment (TPT) in the past, per participant report, and are not receiving TPT at the time of screening (and are not diagnosed with TB at screening), according to the judgment of the investigators. Hemoglobin =12.0 g/dL (in Part A) and =11.0 g/dL (in Part B) for volunteers who were born female, =13.0 g/dL (in Part A) and =12.5 g/dL (in Part B) for volunteers who were born male. More inclusion criteria refer to the study protocol.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Exclusion Criteria (applicable to Part A and Part B unless otherwise specified): Any existing condition which may affect vaccine injection and/or assessment of local reactions assessment at the injection site, e.g., tattoos, severe scars, etc. Any bleeding diathesis or condition associated with prolonged bleeding that would, in the opinion of the investigator, contraindicate intramuscular injection. In Part A only: Baseline clinical screening questionnaire positive for pulmonary TB disease or history of sputum sample positive for TB, or history of treatment for active or latent TB. In Part B only: For HIV-negative subjects: Baseline clinical screening questionnaire positive for pulmonary TB disease or history of sputum sample positive for TB, or history of treatment for TB infection or disease. For PLWH: Baseline clinical screening questionnaire positive for pulmonary TB disease or history of sputum sample positive for TB, or current receipt of TB preventive treatment or treatment for TB disease. Current febrile illness (body temperature =38.0°C) or other acute illness at Visit 0. More exclusion criteria refer to the study protocol.
