aVisits 7 and 11 for group A immunology subset participants only

bPP 1 refers to the day of pregnancy completion/termination. Visit 9 (PP 1) should occur on the day of pregnancy completion/termination or within 2 days

cVisit 10 (PP 43) scheduled to occur at routine 6 week post-partum visit. For women from group A not part of the immunogenicity subset, this visit will be the end of the trial

dMust be signed before first study-related activity

eMaternal demographic information to be collected at screening includes date of birth, race/ethnicity, education level, geographical location/residence, occupation, household size (number of persons living in the same home), and international travel history

fInformation to be collected for medical and obstetric history, physical exams, and vital signs is specified in the protocol

gUrine dipstick for protein and glucose will be performed at these visits. If results 1 + or greater, then additional work-up for pre-eclampsia or gestational diabetes may be warranted

hUltrasound not required at visit 2 if screening (visit 1) ultrasound completed within past 10 days and no other indication for ultrasound

iInvestigator must check for acute illness or body temperature ≥ 38.0 °C at the time of vaccination. In such cases, the participant may be vaccinated at later time point

jParticipants will be closely observed for a minimum of 30 min post-vaccination

kIn all women of group A, solicited AEs (reactogenicity) and unsolicited AEs will be assessed 7 days post each dose and 28 post each dose respectively

lIncludes any medical treatment/medications given to the mother during delivery (e.g., antibiotic prophylaxis)-specifying names of medications administered

mInformation to be collected for delivery history and post-pregnancy examination is specified in the protocol

nAny routine laboratory assessment performed at time of delivery and other laboratory tests as medically indicated

oNot required if participant is not pregnant

pIn case pregnancy completion/termination in a group A pregnant woman occurs prior to receipt of dose 2, visits 9 and 10 should be performed: visit 10 being relative to visit 9 (2 day window). Visit 5 (dose 2 vaccination with a window of – 14 days, + 28 days) should in this case be performed after visit 9, with visits 6 and 8 being relative to actual dose 2 receipt (visit 5). All of these visits should be captured in RedCap cloud in addition to source documentation. Reactogenicity data (diary completion) should still be performed following dose 2 for group A women that have a pregnancy completion/termination prior to receipt of dose 2
