Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Have signed/thumb-printed, voluntary, informed consent provided for them by their parent/LAR prior to performance of any study-specific procedure. 2. Be a male or female infant aged 6 months (±2 weeks) (Steps 1a and 1b) or 6 weeks (+2 weeks) of age (Steps 1c, 1d, or 2) at the time of the first study vaccination. 3. Have a parent/LAR, who, in the opinion of the Investigator, can and will comply with the requirements of the protocol (eg, returning for follow-up visits). 4. Healthy as established by medical history, clinical examination, and laboratory assessment. 5. Have received all routine childhood vaccinations as per the age. 6. Have been born at full term (=37 weeks gestation) based on maternal report and additional antenatal records if available. 7. Have a parent/LAR who is willing to avoid the administration of local herbal/traditional medications (including topical treatments) throughout the study period and who is willing to consult, as applicable, the study team prior to the use on other medications including over the-counter medications not supplied by the study team (except in the case of an emergency) throughout the study period. 8. Have a readily identifiable place of residence within a reasonable travelling distance of the study site. 9. Have a parent/LAR with a means of telephone contact. 10. Have a parent/LAR who is willing to avoid vaccinations not provided by the study team throughout the participant’s enrollment in the study. All routine EPI vaccines due during the study (outside those given concurrently with the study vaccines/controls) will also be administered by the study team.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: include but not limited to Participants must not: 1. Have had a known infection with STm, SEn or S. Typhi (eg, history of microbiologically confirmed iNTS infection). 2. history of allergic reactions to any prior vaccination or components of the investigational or control vaccines. 3. Hypersensitivity to latex. 4. History of any reaction or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study interventions. 5. history of anaphylaxis or other life-threatening allergic reactions. 6. Have any confirmed or suspected congenital or acquired immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination. 7. Any acute or chronic, clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatobiliary, gastrointestinal, renal, neurological, or hematological abnormality or illness, as determined by medical history, physical examination, and (when applicable) baseline laboratory assessments. Known sickle cells disease (but not sickle cell trait) is an exclusion. 8. Have a bleeding or coagulation disorder contraindicating intramuscular injections or any other condition that in the judgment of the Investigator would make intramuscular injection unsafe. 9. Have a documented fever (axillary temperature =37.5ºC) at the time of enrollment/dosing or within the 48 hours preceding dosing (temporary exclusion if remains age-eligible/within the allowed interval of dosing). 10. Have clinically significant (moderate in severity) acute illness on the day of vaccination (temporary exclusion if remains age-eligible within the allowed dosing window). 11. Have any screening/last pre-dosing safety laboratory test (if applicable) with a toxicity score of =3 or a value judged to be clinically significant by the study clinician. 12. Have HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C based on baseline serological assessment (these serological evaluations are only required during the screening phase). 13. Be known to vertically exposed to HIV
