Summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, factorial study to compare the reduction in viral shedding among 6 different combinations of GEN-003, a therapeutic HSV-2 vaccine and Matrix-M2 adjuvant.

Secondary objectives of the study include:

* Evaluation of the safety and tolerability of GEN-003 in combination with Matrix-M2 compared to placebo.
* Comparison of the impact on clinical Herpes Simplex Virus type-2 (HSV-2) disease among the 6 different combinations of GEN-003 antigens and Matrix-M2 adjuvant measured by:

* Time to first clinical and/or virologic recurrence,
* Proportion of subjects who are recurrence free at 6 and 12 months after the last dose of vaccine,
* Lesion rate (percent of days with genital lesions present) during the post-vaccination swabbing periods.
* Evaluation of cellular and humoral responses to GEN-003 antigens.

Additional objectives include:

* Assessment of the correlation between immune responses and change in viral shedding or impact on clinical disease as defined above.
* Determination of the recurrence rate in a subset of subjects not receiving suppressive antivirals throughout the study.

Eligible subjects will enter a baseline period to collect anogenital swabs for 28 consecutive days prior to randomization. Each subject will receive up to 3 doses at 21 day intervals. Subjects will be followed for safety and immunologic response for 12 months following their last dose.
