Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a human metapneumovirus (hMPV) / respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) mRNA vaccine candidate encapsulated in a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) based formulation (hereafter referred to as hMPV/RSV vaccine) for the prevention of lower respiratory tract disease (LRTD) caused by hMPV and/or RSV among adults aged 60 years and older.

The study will also evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a booster vaccination using a bivalent hMPV/RSV mRNA vaccine candidate (hereafter referred to as RSV+hMPV mRNA vaccine candidate).

Overall, the study is designed to address the following goals:

* Assess the safety profile of the candidate formulations.
* Describe the immunogenicity profile of the candidate formulations.
* Select the vaccine formulations (dose) for future development.
* Assess the safety and immunogenicity of a booster vaccination with the RSV + hMPV mRNA vaccine candidate administered 12 months after primary vaccination with a licensed RSV vaccine.

The study duration is as follows:

-Six months each for the Sentinel and Main Cohorts; up to 12 months for the Expansion Cohort, and 6 additional months for the Booster Cohort

Treatment duration:

* Stage 1 Sentinel Cohort: 1 intra-muscular (IM) injection. Participants will be followed for 6 months post vaccination
* Stage 1 Main Cohort: 1 IM injection. Participants will be followed for 6 months post vaccination
* Stage 2 Expansion Cohort: 1 IM injection. Participants in the licensed RSV vaccine arm will be followed for 12 months post-vaccination; the remainder of the participants will be followed up to 8 months post-vaccination
* Stage 2 Booster Cohort: 1 IM injection 12 months post-primary vaccination. Participants will be followed for 6 months post-booster vaccination

Stage 1 Sentinel and Main Cohorts: observer-blind; for safety evaluation purposes, the Sponsor Safety Management Team (SMT) will be unblinded for the Sentinel Cohort (including early safety data review \[ESDR\]) and will be blinded for the Main Cohort.

Stage 2 Expansion Cohort: observer-blind until all participants complete the Month 6 visit, then open-label Stage 2 Booster Cohort: open-label

* Receipt of any vaccine other than mRNA vaccine in the 28 days preceding any study intervention administration or planned receipt of any vaccine other than mRNA vaccine in the 28 days following any study intervention administration
* Receipt of any mRNA vaccine in the 60 days preceding any study intervention administration or planned receipt of any mRNA vaccine in the 60 days following any study intervention administration
* Previous vaccination against RSV and/or hMPV (with a licensed or investigational vaccine either as a monovalent vaccine or any combination of the antigens)
* Receipt of immune globulins, blood, or blood-derived products in the past 3 months
