Fred Hutch Cancer Center researchers found in pre-clinical studies that an experimental gene therapy for genital and oral herpes removed 90% or more of the infection.
The therapy suppressed how much virus can be released from an infected individual, which suggests that the therapy would also reduce the spread of the virus.
The Fred Hutch team also simplified their gene editing treatment, making it safer and easier to make.
