Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
In Stage I, a total of 620 participants were randomized to receive study vaccinations. However for 3 participants, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and/or Informed Consent Form was not signed by the parents in error. Therefore a total of 617 participants were included in Stage I. 654 participants started Stage II.

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
For this study: Visit 1 was on Day 1 (for Stage I and Stage II). Visit 2 was at Week 4 (Stage I) and Week 2 (Stage II). Visit 3 was at Week 24/Week 28 (Stage I) and Week 24 (Stage II). Visit 4 was at Week 28/Week 32 (Stage I) and Week 26 (Stage II). For safety, participants were followed for 14 days after each vaccination (safety follow-up [F/U]).
