About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Prophylaxis Herpes Simplex focused on measuring Herpes simplex, Herpes simplex candidate vaccine

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 45 Years (Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Between 18 and 45 years of age
  • Written informed consent
  • Female volunteers must be using contraception and should avoid becoming pregnant for the duration of the vaccination course
  • Serology: Groups 1, 3, 4 and 5: HSV-1 AND HSV-2 seronegative (by gD2 ELISA); Group 2: HSV seropositive by gD2 ELISA before entry

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any previous vaccination against Herpes simplex.
  • Any previous administration of MPL.
  • Pregnancy or lactation.
  • Patient is immuno-compromised or is receiving immuno-modifying therapy of any kind.
  • Clinical signs of acute or febrile illness at the time of entry into the study.
  • Any administration of immunoglobulins during the vaccination course or within one month of vaccination.
  • Any vaccination within one week of study vaccination.
  • Previous known hypersensitivity to vaccination or to any component of the vaccine.
  • Simultaneous participation in any other clinical trial with an investigational drug or vaccine. Subjects currently in a follow-up period of a vaccine study can be included.
  • Recent history of alcoholism or drug abuse (within the past 6 months).
  • Life-threatening or serious cardiac (NYHA grades III-IV), gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, hematological or immunological disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude entry into the study.
