- For female participants: agrees to avoid pregnancy from 21 days prior to Study Day 0 through 6 months after the last study vaccination. Women physically capable of pregnancy (not sterilized and still menstruating or within 1 year of the last menses) in sexual relationships with men must use an acceptable method of avoiding pregnancy during this period.

- Had BCG vaccination at least 5 years ago documented by confirmation of parent/guardian that the participant received all childhood vaccines or by presence of healed BCG scar
- Tests ESAT-6 free IGRA and QFT-Plus negative at screening, using a pre-determined threshold for ESAT-6 free IGRA and the manufacturer's recommended threshold for QFT-Plus of 0.35 IU/mL in either of the TB antigen tubes after nil-subtraction
Exclusion
- Acute illness on Study Day 0
- Axillary temperature ≥37.5 °C on Study Day 0
- Abnormal laboratory values from the most recent blood collected prior to randomization as follows (abnormal results may be repeated once and if found to be resolved the participant will not be excluded):
- Laboratory evidence of hematologic disease (white blood cell count \<3000/mm\^3 or \>11,500/mm\^3; hemoglobin \<0.9 times the lower limit of normal of the testing laboratory, by age and gender; absolute neutrophil count \<1300/mm\^3; absolute lymphocyte count \<1000/mm\^3).
- ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) \>1.25 times the ULN
- Urinalysis abnormality greater than Grade 1 on the Toxicity Scale (with the exception of hematuria in a menstruating female), or urinalysis abnormality judged clinically significant by the investigator
- History or evidence of any clinically significant systemic disease, or any acute or chronic illness that might affect the safety, immunogenicity, or efficacy of investigational product in the opinion of the investigator
- History of treatment for active TB disease or latent Mtb infection
- History or evidence, including chest X-ray, of active TB disease
- Shared household with an individual receiving anti-TB treatment, or known to have incompletely treated culture or smear positive TB, at screening
- History of autoimmune disease or immunosuppression
- Used immunosuppressive medication within 42 days before Study Day 0 (inhaled and topical corticosteroids are permitted)
- Received immunoglobulin or blood products within 42 days before Study Day 0
- Received any investigational drug or investigational vaccine within 180 days before Study Day 0, or planned participation in any other clinical trial during the study period
- Received investigational TB vaccine at any time prior to Study Day 0
- Planned administration/administration of a licensed vaccine in the period starting 28 days before and ending 28 days after each dose of investigational product
- History or laboratory evidence of any past or present possible immunodeficiency state including, but not limited to, any laboratory indication of HIV 1 infection
- History of allergic disease or reactions, including eczema, likely to be exacerbated by any component of the investigational product
- History of alcohol or drug abuse
- Any female currently pregnant or lactating/nursing, or positive urine pregnancy test during screening or Study Day 0
- Received a tuberculin skin test (TST) within 3 months (90 days) prior to Study Day 0.
- Any current medical, psychiatric, occupational, or substance abuse problems that, in the opinion of the investigator, will make it unlikely that the participant will comply with the protocol.
