Nasal and topical steroids are allowed.
- Received immunoglobulin or other blood products (with exception of Rho D immune globulin) within the 3 months prior to enrollment in this study
- Current diagnosis of uncontrolled major psychiatric disorder
- History of Guillain-Barre syndrome in the subject or subject's family (including parents, siblings, half-siblings, or children)

- Disproportionate loss of strength in lower extremity or extremities compared to the upper extremities (not thought to be related to pregnancy) within the past 6 months
- Any condition that would, in the opinion of the site investigator, place the subject at an unacceptable risk of injury or render the subject unable to meet the requirements of the protocol. Pregnancy complications such as preterm labor, hypertension and pre-eclampsia are not exclusion criteria for this study.
- Exclusion Criteria for Step II:
- Received a nonlicensed agent (vaccine, drug, biologic, device, blood product, or medication), other than from participation in this study, since the study vaccine dose #1 or expects to receive another nonlicensed agent before delivery
- Use of anti-cancer chemotherapy or radiation therapy since study vaccine dose #1, new diagnosis of an active malignancy, or is immunosuppressed as a result of an underlying illness (other than HIV-1 infection) or treatment
- Use of glucocorticoids, including oral or parenteral prednisone or equivalent (at least 2.0 mg/kg per day or at least 20 mg total dose) or high-dose inhaled steroids (more than 800 mcg/day of beclomethasone dipropionate or equivalent) for more than 2 consecutive weeks (or 2 weeks total) since study vaccine dose #1. Nasal and topical steroids are allowed.
- Received immunoglobulin or other blood products (with exception of Rho D immune globulin) since study vaccine dose #1
- A new diagnosis of uncontrolled major psychiatric disorder since study vaccine dose #1
- New occurrence or new awareness of Guillain-Barre syndrome in the subject or subject's family (including parents, siblings, half-siblings, or children) since study vaccine dose #1
- A new onset of a neurological disorder including (but not limited to) absent ankle and patellar DTRs in both legs (all four absent) since study vaccine dose #1
- Disproportionate loss of strength in lower extremity or extremities compared to the upper extremities (not thought to be related to pregnancy) since study vaccine dose #1

- Any Grade 4 toxicity or AE (other than injection site reaction or fever) that is definitely, probably, or possibly related to the study vaccine dose #1
- Any Grade 4 injection site reactions or fever experienced by a subject, unless the investigator has received protocol team approval
- Any Grade 4 AEs that are definitely not or probably not related to study vaccine, unless the investigator has received protocol team approval
- Any new clinical findings since the study vaccine dose #1, that, in the investigator's opinion, would compromise the safety of the participant
