Herpes Simplex Understanding


Herpes Simplex: Overview


Infection with herpes simplex virus, commonly known as herpes, can be due to either herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) or herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2). HSV-1 is mainly transmitted by oral-to-oral contact to cause infection in or around the mouth (oral herpes). However, HSV-1 can also be transmitted through oral-genital contact to cause infection in or around the genital area ( genital herpes). HSV-2 is almost exclusively transmitted through genital-to-genital contact during sex, causing infection in the genital or anal area (genital herpes). Symptoms of oral herpes include painful blisters or open sores called ulcers in or around the mouth. Sores on the lips are commonly referred to as “cold sores.” Genital herpes caused by HSV-1 can be asymptomatic or can have mild symptoms that go unrecognized. When symptoms do occur, genital herpes is characterised by 1 one or more genital or anal blisters or ulcers. Antiviral medications, such as acyclovir, famciclovir, and valacyclovir, are the most effective medications available for people infected with HSV. These can help to reduce the severity and frequency of symptoms, but cannot cure the infection.

"Herpes Simplex - Pipeline Insight, 2021" report by the publisher outlays comprehensive insights of present scenario and growth prospects across the indication. A detailed picture of the Herpes Simplex pipeline landscape is provided which includes the disease overview and Herpes Simplex treatment guidelines.

Herpes Simplex Emerging Drugs Chapters


This segment of the Herpes Simplex report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Herpes Simplex Emerging Drugs


Pritelivir: AiCuris

Pritelivir is a highly potent inhibitor of HSV replication. It belongs to a new chemical class and acts via a novel mechanism of action (inhibition of the viral helicase-primase enzyme complex). In contrast to currently used nucleoside analogues, Pritelivir does not require activation by viral enzymes and can thus protect uninfected cells. Pritelivir is being developed for the treatment of acyclovir-resistant and dual-resistant (resistant to acyclovir and intolerant or resistant to foscarnet) infections in immune-compromised patients. It has received the US FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation. AiCuris Anti-infective Cures AG has begun Phase III development of its lead compound pritelivir, a novel helicase-primase inhibitor, for the treatment of acyclovir-resistant mucocutaneous herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections in immunocompromised patients.

UB-621: United BioPharma

UB-621 is a first-in-class anti-gD mAb (UB-621) with demonstrated strong viral suppression of transmission and recurrence of HSV1 and HSV2, developed over ten years of research collaboration between the University of Washington, the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, University of Duisburg Essen, Germany, and Dartmouth College. In October 2021 United BioPharma announced that Shanghai Public Health Clinical Centre and Cheng Kung University's Department of Microbiology and Immunology have joined United BioPharma's fight against the global herpes endemic. Together with United BioPharma, the two institutions will test the effectiveness of UB-621, a best-in-class long-acting treatment for genital herpes caused by simplex viruses 1 and 2 (HSV 1 and HSV2) in preparation for phase II trials in the United States and China.
