2. Infants between 6-8 weeks of age (42-56 days, both inclusive), at the time of 1st dose of vaccination.
3. Subjects’ parent(s)/ LAR(s) who, in the opinion of the investigator, can and will comply, with the requirements of the protocol (e.g. completion of the diary cards, return for follow-up visits, with access to a consistent means of telephone contact, either residential land line or mobile).
4. Subject’s parent(s)/LAR(s) willing to provide written or thumb printed informed consent prior to performing any study specific procedure.
5. Infants with a minimal vaccination status for their age at the time of enrolment (minimal? defined as single dose of BCG, Hepatitis B &/or polio vaccine. at the time of enrolment).
1.

4. Any medical condition that in the judgment of the investigator would make intramuscular injection unsafe.
5. Chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days in total) of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs or any blood products during the period starting 30 days prior to the proposed first vaccine dose or planned administration of the same during the study period.
6. 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 (pharmaceutical product or device).
7. Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination (no laboratory testing required).
8. Family history of congenital or hereditary immunodeficiency.
9.History of allergic disease or history of a serious reaction to any prior vaccination or known hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study vaccines.
10. History of any neurological disorders, meningitis or seizures.
11. Infant who has had a sibling die of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) or die suddenly and without apparent other cause or preceding illness in the first year of life.
12. Infant is a direct descendant (child or grand-child) of any person employed by the Sponsor, the Contract Research Organization (CRO) or the Study Site (including the PI and study site personnel).

oFever is defined as the endogenous elevation of at least one measured body temperature of = 38?C (= 100.4?F).8
14. Acute or chronic, clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic or renal functional abnormality, as determined by physical examination and Principal investigator judgement.
