Inclusion Criteria

All participants must satisfy ALL the following criteria at study entry

1 Participants and/or participants LAR 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)

2 A male or female aged 50 YOA or older at the time of the first study intervention

3 Healthy participants or medically stable patients as established by medical history

and clinical examination before entering into the study

4 Female participants of non-childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study

5 Written or witnessed/thumb printed informed consent obtained from the participant

and/or participants LAR(s) after the study has been explained according to local

regulatory requirements and prior to performance of any study-specific procedure

6 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 2 months after completion of the study intervention administration

series

Exclusion Criteria

The following criteria should be checked at the time of study entry. The potential

participant MAY NOT be included in the study if ANY exclusion criterion applies

1 MEDICAL CONDITIONS

Any other clinical condition that in the opinion of the investigator might pose

additional risk to the participant due to participation in the study.

• History of any reaction or hypersensitivity likely to be exacerbated by any

component of the study intervention(s) or study materials or equipment.

• Acute or chronic clinically significant pulmonary cardiovascular hepatic or renal

functional abnormality, as determined by medical history, physical examination or

laboratory screening tests.

Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition,

based on medical history and physical examination (no laboratory testing required).

• History of HZ.

• Significant underlying illness that in the opinion of the investigator would be

expected to prevent completion of the study (e.g. life-threatening disease likely to

limit survival to less than 4 years).

2 PRIOR CONCOMITANT THERAPY

Planned administration/administration of a vaccine not foreseen by the study

protocol in the period starting 30 days before first dose and ending 30 days after the

last dose of study intervention administration with the exception of licensed

pneumococcal vaccines and non-replicating vaccines (i.e. inactivated and subunit

vaccines including inactivated and subunit influenza vaccines, with or without

adjuvant for seasonal or pandemic flu) may be administered up until 8 days prior to

Dose 1 and/or Dose 2 and/or at least 14 days after any dose of study intervention.

• In case an emergency mass vaccination for an unforeseen public health threat (e.g. a

pandemic) is recommended and/or organized by the public health authorities, outside

the routine immunization programme, the time period described above can be

reduced if necessary for that vaccine provided it is used according to local

governmental recommendations and that the Sponsor is notified accordingly.

• Planned administration of long-acting immune-modifying drugs at any time during

the study period (e.g. infliximab).

• Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products or plasma derivatives

during the period starting 3 months before the first dose of study intervention up to

1-month post-dose 2 (Month 3) or planned administration during the study period.

• Chronic administration (defined as more than 14 days in total) of

immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs during the period starting 3

months prior to the first study intervention dose. For corticosteroids, this will mean

prednisone equivalent or greater than 20 mg/day or equivalent is not allowed. Inhaled

intra- articular and topical steroids are allowed.

• Previous vaccination against varicella or HZ.

3 PRIOR/CONCURRENT CLINICAL STUDY EXPERIENCE

Concurrently participating in another clinical study, at any time during the study period,

in which the participant has been or will be exposed to an investigational or a

non- investigational intervention (drug/invasive medical device).
