Exclusion Criteria

• Concurrently participating in another clinical study, at any time during the study period, in which the subject has been or will be exposed to an investigational or a non-investigational vaccine/ product.
• Use of any investigational or non-registered product other than the study vaccine within 30 days preceding the first dose of study vaccine, or planned use during the study period.
• Planned administration/ administration of a vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol in the period starting 30 days before the first dose and ending 30 days after the last dose of vaccine, with the exception of any influenza or pneumococcal vaccine which may be administered = 15 days preceding or following any study vaccine dose.
• Previous vaccination with any vaccine containing NTHi antigens.
• Administration of immunoglobulins or any blood products within the 3 months preceding the first dose of study vaccine or planned administration during the study period.
• Chronic administration of non-steroid immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs within 6 months prior to the first vaccine dose.
• Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination.
• History of immune-mediated disease other than COPD.
• Administration of systemic corticosteroids within the 30 days before Screening.
• Administration of systemic antibiotics within the 30 days before Screening.
• Chronic use of antibiotics for prevention of acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD).
• Receiving oxygen therapy.
• Planned lung transplantation.
• Planned/ underwent lung resection surgery.
• Diagnosis of a-1 antitrypsin deficiency as the underlying cause of COPD.
• Diagnosed with a respiratory disorder other than COPD, or chest X-ray/ CT scan revealing evidence of clinically significant abnormalities not believed to be due to the presence of COPD. Subjects with allergic rhinitis can be enrolled.
• History of any reaction or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccines and/ or the bronchodilator used for spirometry assessment during the study.
• Contraindication for spirometry testing.

• Any known disease or condition likely to cause death during the study period.
• Acute disease and/ or fever at the time of Screening. Fever is defined as oral or axillary temperature = 37.5°C. The preferred route for recording temperature in this study will be oral. Subjects with acute disease and/ or fever at the time of Screening may be enrolled at a later date if enrolment is still open. Subjects with a minor illness without fever may be enrolled at the discretion of the investigator.
• Pregnant or lactating female.
• Current alcoholism and/or drug abuse.
• Other condition which the investigator judges may put the safety of the subject at risk through study participation or which may interfere with the study findings.
• Planned move to a location that will complicate participation in the trial through study end.
