• CD4+ T-cell count ≥ 500/mm3.
• No antiviral drug within 8 weeks of screening. Patients stabilized on Aciclovir and Valciclovir for more than 6 months may be enrolled.

• Autoimmune disease (e.g., psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, etc.) or inflammatory bowel disease confirmed by clinical history.
• Positive at screen for HBV (by HBsAg assay) or HCV (by antibody ELISA) unless there is no active infection as judged by an elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) at screening.
• Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) above the upper limit of normal at screening.
• Hemoglobin outside of laboratory normal range at screening.
• Absolute neutrophil counts outside of laboratory normal range at screening.
• Platelet count outside of laboratory normal range at screening.
• A history of significant drug allergy.
• A general medical or psychological condition or behavior, including current substance dependence or abuse that, in the opinion of the investigator, might not permit the subject to complete the study or sign the informed consent.
• Subjects experiencing an acute Herpetic event.
• Any other condition or clinically significant abnormal findings on the physical examination, medical history, or clinical laboratory results during screening that, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator would make the subject unsuitable for the study or put them at additional risk.

• Inability to understand or follow study instructions.
• Participation in another investigational drug/vaccine study within 30 days preceding the first injection of investigational agent in this study.
