Subjects will be recruited in three groups, all of whom are infected with HSV-1, as shown by having IgG against HSV-1:
Group A: 12 subjects with 6 or more herpes labialis outbreaks in the past 12 months.
Subjects in group A will receive 2% Squaric Acid Dibutyl Ester (SADBE) dose on the arm after their initial blood samples are obtained. Group A subjects will have blood collected and tests repeated 2 and 8 weeks later.
Subjects in Groups B and C will be matched to the subjects in Group A so that demographic characteristics (i.e., gender distribution, age and weight) are within broadly similar ranges.

Subjects will be recruited in three groups, all of whom are infected with HSV-1, as shown by having IgG against HSV-1:
Group B: 12 subjects with 1 to 2 outbreaks in the past 12 months. Subjects in Groups B and C will be matched to the subjects in Group A so that demographic characteristics (i.e., gender distribution, age and weight) are within broadly similar ranges. Invite these back for a further blood draw on Day 0.

Subjects will be recruited in three groups, all of whom are infected with HSV-1, as shown by having IgG against HSV-1:
Group C: 12 subjects with zero outbreaks in the past 12 months. Subjects in Groups B and C will be matched to the subjects in Group A so that demographic characteristics (i.e., gender distribution, age and weight) are within broadly similar ranges. Invite these back for a further blood draw on Day 0.

Herpes Labialis

2% squaric acid dibutyl ester (SADBE) (Supplied by Squarex) is topically applied to the inner aspect of the upper arm of the subject and covered with Tegaderm. Subject is advised to wash it off after 3 hours.

Immune Response and General Immune Health in Subjects Infected With Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1)

A Phase I Study of the Immune Response to Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 (HSV-1) and General Immune Health in Subjects Infected With HSV-1

Cell Counts (Lymphocyte, T cell, B call, CD4, CD8, natural killer cells counts)

Serum Cytokine Levels ( IL2R, IL12, INFG, IL4, IL5, IL10, IL13, IL1B, IL6, IL8, TNFA, IL2, IL17) in pg/mL

RNA gene expression arrays for 42 cytokine and immune related genes, expressed as ratio of absolute gene expression in PBMCs for each group (A, B, C, those with 0, few, or 6 or more herpes labialis outbreaks in the prior 12 months) on Day 0,1 and 2 and a each test condition (no stimulus, HSV-1, HSV-infected cell extracts, or Candida).

PBMC proliferation in response to 3 stimuli: HSV-1 virus, HSV-1-infected cell extracts, and Candida albicans extract.

Subjects will be recruited in three groups, all of whom are infected with HSV-1, as shown by having IgG against HSV-1:
x Group A: 12 subjects with 6 or more herpes labialis outbreaks in the past 12 months x Group B: 12 subjects with 1 to 2 outbreaks in the past 12 months x Group C: 12 subjects with zero outbreaks in the past 12 months Subjects in group A will receive 2% SADBE dose on the arm after their initial blood samples are obtained. Group A subjects will have blood collected and tests repeated 2 and 8 weeks later.
Subjects in Groups B and C will be matched to the subjects in Group A so that demographic characteristics (i.e., gender distribution, age and weight) are within broadly similar ranges.

•The first group (20 patients) will be treated with cryotherapy using liquid nitrogen spray, two cycles each one 3-5 seconds, one session every two weeks, for three months.

•The second group (20 patients) will be treated with intralesional injection of 4mg/ml/ session of triamcinolone-acetonide, it will be injected into deep dermis or upper subcutaneous tissue using a 0.5-inch long 30-gauge needle at multiple sites, 1 cm apart and 0.1 ml into each site, once every three weeks, for three months, using insulin syringes.
