Primary Outcomes (1)
Efficacy of 4 Different Doses of AIC316 and Matching Placebo With Respect to the Suppression of Herpes Simplex Virus Replication (Shedding Rate)
Subjects were assessed for shedding rate as the percentage of number of swab days with at least one swab positive for HSV DNA relative to the total number of days with analyzable swabs. Measurement was based on presence of HSV DNA measured on the material collected from swabs taken at the visits by the investigator and daily swabbing of the anogenital region by the patient during the treatment and post-treatment period.
