All inclusion criteria are applicable for both study phases, except where specified otherwise.
• Participants and/or participants’ parent(s)/Legally Acceptable Representative(s) (LAR) who, in the opinion of the investigator, can and will comply with the requirements of the protocol (e.g. completion of the eDiaries, return for follow-up visits).
• Written or witnessed/thumb printed informed consent obtained from the participant or /parent(s)/LAR(s) of the participant prior to performance of any study specific procedure.
• Written informed assent obtained from the participant (if applicable) prior to performing any study specific procedure.
• Phase I only: A male or female between, and including, 18 and 40 years of age (i.e. 40 years + 364 days) at the time of the first study intervention administration.
• Phase II (Formulation and Schedule-finding) only: A male or female between, and including, 10 and 25 years of age (i.e. 25 years + 364 days) at the time of the first study intervention administration.
• Phase II (Sourcing) only: A male or female between, and including, 18 and 50 years of age (i.e. 50 years + 364 days) at the time of the first study intervention administration.
• Participants who are either unvaccinated with MenACWY vaccine or have received a single previous dose of MenACWY vaccine can participate in the study, if they have received it at least 4 years prior to informed consent and assent as applicable (with the exception of meningococcal C vaccination, if the last dose of MenC was received at = 24 months of age).
• Healthy participants as established by medical history and clinical examination before entering into the study.
• Female participants of non-childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study. Non-childbearing potential is defined as pre-menarche, current bilateral tubal ligation or occlusion, hysterectomy, bilateral ovariectomy or post-menopause.
• Female participants of childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study, if the participant:
- has practiced adequate contraception for 1 month prior to study intervention administration, and
- has a negative pregnancy test on the day of study intervention administration, and
- has agreed to continue adequate contraception during the entire treatment period and for 1 month after completion of the study intervention administration.

Medical conditions
• Current or previous, confirmed or suspected disease caused by N. meningitidis.
• Household contact with and/or intimate exposure to an individual with laboratory confirmed N. meningitidis infection within 60 days of enrolment.
• Progressive, unstable or uncontrolled clinical conditions.
• Clinical conditions representing a contraindication to intramuscular vaccination and blood draws.
• Are obese at enrolment (e.g. for participants from 20 years of age a body mass index (BMI) = 30 kg/m2, for participants up to 19 years of age a BMI = 95th percentile for age and gender or as applicable per country recommendations).
• Any neuroinflammatory (including but not limited to: demyelinating disorders, encephalitis or myelitis of any origin), congenital neurological conditions, encephalopathies, seizures (including all subtypes such as: absence seizures, generalised tonic-clonic seizures, partial complex seizures, partial simple seizures). History of febrile convulsions should not lead to exclusion.
• History of any reaction or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study interventions.
• Hypersensitivity, including allergy, to any component of vaccines, including diphtheria toxoid (CRM197) and latex medicinal products or medical equipment whose use is foreseen in this study.
• Abnormal function or modification of the immune system resulting from:
- Autoimmune disorders (including, but not limited to: blood, endocrine, hepatic, muscular, nervous system or skin autoimmune disorders; lupus erythematosus and associated conditions; rheumatoid arthritis and associated conditions; scleroderma and associated disorders) or immunodeficiency syndromes (including, but not limited to: acquired immunodeficiency syndromes and primary immunodeficiency syndromes).
- Systemic administration of corticosteroids (PO/IV/IM) for more than 14 consecutive days within 3 months prior to study vaccination until the last blood sampling visit for Phase I and Phase II (Sourcing) and Visit 5 (Day 211) for Phase II (Formulation and Schedule-finding). This will mean prednisone equivalent =20 mg/day for adult participants/ =0.5 mg/kg/day with maximum of 20 mg/day for paediatric participants. Inhaled and topical steroids are allowed.
- Administration of antineoplastic and immunomodulating agents or radiotherapy within 90 days prior to study vaccination.
- Administration of long-acting immune-modifying drugs at any time during the study period (e.g. infliximab).
• Any other clinical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, might pose additional risk to the participant due to participation in the study.
Prior/Concomitant therapy
• Use of any investigational or non-registered product (drug, vaccine or medical device) other than the study intervention(s) during the period beginning 30 days before the first dose of study intervention(s) (Day -29 to Day 1), or their planned use during the study period.
• Previous vaccination against any group B meningococcal vaccine at any time prior to informed consent and assent as applicable.
• Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products or plasma derivatives during the period starting 3 months before the administration of the first dose of study intervention(s) or planned administration until the last blood sampling visit for Phase I and Phase II (Sourcing) and Visit 5 (Day 211) for Phase II (Formulation and Schedule-finding).
• Chronic administration (defined as mo
