Active clinical trials for "Herpes Simplex"

This clinical research study will be an international trial evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a marketed drug compared to placebo (like a sugar pill) for the suppression of repeated genital herpes infections in HIV-infected subjects with CD4+ count <100 cells/mm3.

The purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficiency of pain relief and the safety of NPC-06 for the acute pain in herpes zoster in the placebo-controlled double-blind parallel group trial, in addition to explore the effective concentration of NPC-06.

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection is very common, as most people will experience herpetic infection during their lifetime. The most common manifestation of HSV infection is sores which may appear at any age. No specific antiviral therapy is available to totally cure herpetic infections and today, there is no treatment that allows the definitive eradication of the virus. The 2LHERP® has been available for more than 20 years, and has received a marketing authorization in Belgium by the FAMHP. It is used as an immune regulator in the treatment of herpetic infections. Since 2LHERP® has been made available, clinical observational data collected on treated patients have shown the beneficial effect on the disappearance of herpetic recurrences. The purpose of this placebo-controlled trial is to evaluate the efficacy of 2LHERP® on the treatment of herpetic infections in adults.

The purpose of this first-time-in-human (FTiH) study is to assess the reactogenicity, safety and immunogenicity of four different dose levels of an experimental herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) vaccine, when administered intramuscularly (IM) on a 0, 2-month schedule to healthy participants aged 18-40 years.

Study 2022-HZ-011 will utilize a randomized withdrawal (RW), double-blind, placebo controlled design in which the PK and safety of CNTX 2022 (40% anhydrous lidocaine gel) will be evaluated in subjects with acute-onset herpes zoster pain.

The aim of this study is therefore to investigate the efficacy of the PEG-formulation to reduce the frequency and duration of genital herpes recurrences, to assess its safety and tolerability and to investigate its effect on shedding.

The purpose of this study is to see if therapy with the drug pregabalin relieves pain during shingles compared with placebo. A placebo is an inactive substance. Pregabalin is a drug marketed as Lyrica™ in the United States for the treatment of seizures, diabetic neuropathy, and post-herpetic neuralgia. The use of pregabalin and drugs like it for the treatment of pain during the acute phase of shingles is experimental. Thirty four subjects will complete the study at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) Pain Clinical Research Center. This study is funded by Pfizer Global Research.

This is a phase II, double-blind, randomised, controlled, multicentre trial of topical HDIT101 versus placebo. HSV-1-positive patients with at least 6 orolabial herpes lesions in the last 12 months can be included. The patients need to present with 3 herpes lesions within a 9 months observation phase. With the occurrence of the third lesion, the patients will enter the 12 months treatment phase and will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to topical HDIT or placebo applied over 2 days. A potential fourth lesion will also be treated with the blinded study medication and additional lesions will be documented. In a 12 months post-trial follow-up phase, further information on the occurence of lesions will be collected 4 times by phone. Study duration per patient will be up to 21 months plus 12 months post-trial follow-up by phone. Patients need to come for study visits up to 9 times.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of topical gancyclovir 0.15% in the treatment of herpes zoster keratitis. Half the patients will receive the study drug while the other half of the patients will receive the placebo

This study evaluates the reduction in viral shedding after vaccination with a new formulation of GEN-003 in subjects with genital HSV-2 infection. Two-thirds of the participants will receive GEN-003, one-third will receive placebo.
