Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and reactogenicity of a single IM dose of the GSK3390107A (ChAd3 EBO-Z) vaccine, overall and in children aged 1 to 5, 6 to 12, and 13 to 17 years, separately. Considering the risk of exposure to Ebola and the potential (based on animal data) for the investigational GSK3390107A (ChAd3-EBO-Z) vaccine to afford at least partial protection, all children in the study will receive the investigational GSK3390107A (ChAd3 EBO-Z) vaccine. The children in the Group GSK3390107A+Nimenrix will receive the investigational GSK3390107A (ChAd3-EBO-Z) vaccine at Day 0 of the study, whereas the children in the Group Nimenrix+GSK3390107A will receive Nimenrix at Day 0 (as a control). At Month 6, the children in the Group Nimenrix+GSK3390107A will receive the investigational GSK3390107A (ChAd3-EBO-Z) vaccine (provided that no safety concerns are raised), whereas the children in the Group GSK3390107A+Nimenrix will receive Nimenrix.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (42)
Number of Subjects With Solicited Local Symptoms, Overall
Assessed solicited local symptoms included: pain and swelling at the injections site. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = crying at limb movement/spontaneous pain.Grade 3 swelling = swelling extending on a surface higher than (\>) 30 millimeters (mm). Solicited local symptoms, for this endpoint, were assessed in all subjects, in both groups.
During a 7-day follow-up period after each vaccination (i.e. the day of vaccination and 6 subsequent days)
Number of Subjects With Solicited Local Symptoms, by Age Stratum
Assessed solicited local symptoms included: pain and swelling at the injections site. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade. Grade 3 pain = crying at limb movement/spontaneous pain.Grade 3 swelling = swelling extending on a surface higher than (\>) 30 millimeters (mm), for children between 1-5 years old; \> 50 mm for children between 6-12 years old and \>100 mm for children between 13-17 years old.

Number of Subjects With Solicited General Symptoms, Overall
Solicited general symptoms assessed included: fatigue, fever \[defined as axillary temperature equal to or above (≥) 37.5 degrees Celsius (°C)\], gastrointestinal symptoms \[nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and/or abdominal pain\], headache, drowsiness, irritability/fussiness and loss of appetite. Any = occurrence of the symptom regardless of intensity grade.

- Healthy subjects as per Investigator judgement, as estab-lished by medical history, clinical examination and haema-tology/ biochemistry laboratory parameters screening be-fore entering into the study.
- Female subjects of non-childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study.
- Non-childbearing potential is defined as pre-menarche or ovariectomy.

- has agreed to continue adequate contraception until 30 days after the Month 6 visit
You may not qualify if:
- Child in care.
- Use of any investigational or non-registered product (drug or vaccine) other than the study vaccine during the period starting 30 days before the Day 0 visit, or planned use during the study period.
- Previous vaccination with an investigational EBOV or Marburg vaccine, or previous vaccination with a chim-panzee adenoviral vectored investigational vaccine.
- Known prior EBOV or SUDV disease.
- Travel to country affected by the EBOV epidemic or direct contact with person with EVD within 21 days prior to the Day 0 visit.
- History of any reaction or hypersensitivity (such as ana-phylaxis, urticaria (hives), respiratory difficulty, angioe-dema, or abdominal pain) likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study vaccine.
- Planned administration/ administration of a vaccine not foreseen by the study protocol in the period starting 30 days before and ending 30 days after each vaccination visit.
- Acute or chronic illness determined by medical history, clinical examination and laboratory screening tests in-cluding, but not limited to:
- Clinically significant immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition (e.g. clinical acquired immune deficiency syndrome \[AIDS\]).
- Major congenital defects.
- Malnutrition (defined as weight for age Z-score less than -3, or other clinical signs of malnutrition).
- Any clinically significant haematological or biochemical laboratory abnormality.
- Pregnant female.
- Any condition that in the Investigator's opinion may po-tentially compromise subject safety or interfere with sub-ject assessment or compliance.
