Interventions

DRUG

Novel Antiviral Drug

4 oral doses of a Novel Antiviral Drug: 0.25 mg/kg/dose, 0.50 mg/kg/dose, 1.0 mg/kg/dose or 2.0 mg/kg/dose twice a week for 3 weeks during the time in which the 21 day administration of parenteral acyclovir is being administered. Subjects will be assigned a the higher dose of study drug after the DSMB and sponsor determine that reported adverse events and the PK data show that it is safe to increase dosing to the next higher level.

DRUG

Placebo

4 oral doses of placebo matching the a Novel Antiviral Drug assigned dose: 0.25 mg/kg/dose, 0.50 mg/kg/dose, 1.0 mg/kg/dose or 2.0 mg/kg/dose twice a week for 3 weeks during the time in which the 21 day administration of parenteral acyclovir is being administered.
