Serious adverse events (SAEs) assessed include medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in disability/incapacity.

Analysis was performed on the Total Vaccinated cohort which included all vaccinated subjects with at least one dose administered.

An unsolicited AE covers any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product and reported in addition to those solicited during the clinical study and any solicited symptom with onset outside the specified period of follow-up for solicited symptoms. Any was defined as the occurrence of any unsolicited AE regardless of intensity grade or relation to vaccination.

Analysis was performed on the Total Vaccinated cohort which included all vaccinated subjects with at least one dose administered.

Assessed solicited local symptoms were pain, redness and swelling. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Any redness/swelling symptom was scored as injection site redness/swelling with a diameter equal or larger than (≥) 20 millimeters (mm).

Analysis was performed on the "safety and immunogenicity" sub-cohort (i.e. about 150 subjects enrolled in each group and from 2 of the 3 countries [the third country study start was delayed as awaiting regulatory approval]) which included subjects with at least 1 vaccination dose documented.

Assessed solicited general symptoms were fatigue, fever [defined as axillary temperature equal to or above 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)], respiratory symptoms (including cough, blood in sputum, purulent sputum, shortness of breath or difficulties breathing, chest wall pain) headache, malaise and myalgia. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade and relation to vaccination.

Guidance for Industry, Toxicity Grading Scale for Adult and Adolescent Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials. Alanine Aminotransferase = ALA; Aspartate Aminotransferase = ASP; Creatinine = CREA; Hemoglobin (Change from baseline) = HEM (baseline); Hemoglobin (decrease) = HEM (decrease); Leukocytes (White Blood Cells) (Decrease) = WBC (decrease); Leukocytes (White Blood Cells) (Increase) = WBC (increase); Platelets = PLA; Total Bilirubin = BIL.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis M72-specific antibody geometric mean concentrations (GMCs) with exact 95% Confidence Interval (CI) were measured by Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA) and expressed in ELISA unit per milliliter (EU/mL). The cut-off of the assay was 2.8 EU/mL. The Geometric Mean Concentration (GMC) calculations were performed by taking the anti-log of the mean of the log10 concentration transformations. For descriptive statistics purposes only, antibody concentrations below the cut-off value of the assay was given an arbitrary value of half the cut-off value for the purpose of GMC calculation.

Analysis was performed on the "safety and immunogenicity" sub-cohort (i.e. about 150 subjects enrolled in each group and from 2 of the 3 countries [the third country study start was delayed as awaiting regulatory approval]) which included subjects with at least 1 cell-mediated immune result documented.

A seronegative subject was a subject whose antibody concentration was below 2.8 EU/mL, while a seropositive subject was a subject whose antibody concentration was greater than or equal to 2.8 EU/mL.
