| E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
-Pregnant female participants; breastfeeding female participants; positive urine pregnancy test for female participants at Visit 1 (prior to vaccination); WOCBP who are, in the opinion of the investigator, sexually active and at risk for pregnancy; and fertile men and WOCBP who are unwilling or unable to use effective methods of contraception as outlined in this protocol from the signing of the informed consent through 28 days after completion of the primary vaccination series and from the booster dose through 28 days after the booster vaccination. -Any contraindication to vaccination or vaccine components, including previous anaphylactic reaction to any vaccine or vaccine-related components. -Any diagnosis of Lyme Disease within the past 3 months. -Any history of Lyme arthritis, carditis, neuroborreliosis, or other disseminated Lyme Disease, regardless of when diagnosed. -Known tick bite within the past 4 weeks. -Congenital or acquired immunodeficiency (known or suspected) or other conditions or treatments associated with immunosuppression that could inhibit the ability to mount an immune response to a vaccine, including, but not limited to, immunoglobulin class/subclass deficiencies, DiGeorge syndrome, generalized malignancy, HIV infection, leukemia, lymphoma, or organ or bone marrow transplant. -Other medical or psychiatric condition, including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation/behavior or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk of study participation or, in the investigator’s judgment, make the participant inappropriate for the study. |

| E.5 End points |
| E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
-Prompted local reactions-(pain at the injection site, redness, and swelling) -Prompted systemic events (fever, headache, fatigue, muscle pain, and joint pain) -AEs -NDCMCs -SAEs |
|
| E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
In participants receiving at least 1 dose of study intervention: -The proportion of participants reporting prompted local reactions within 7 days following each study intervention administration -The proportion of participants reporting prompted systemic events within 7 days following each study intervention administration -The proportion of participants reporting AEs through 1 month following each study intervention administration -The proportion of participants reporting NDCMCs throughout the study -The proportion of participants reporting SAEs throughout the study |
