Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a voluntary study to allow subjects who received placebo while on GEN-003-002 to be randomized, in a blinded manner, to 1 of 6 active combinations of GEN-003 and Matrix-M2.

Objectives:

* To compare the impact on clinical Herpes Simplex Virus type-2 (HSV-2) disease among 6 different combinations of GEN-003 antigens and Matrix-M2 adjuvant measured by:

* Time to first clinical and/or virologic recurrence after Dose 3 (Day 43)
* Proportion of subjects who are recurrence free at 6 and 12 months after the last dose of vaccine
* Lesion rate (percent of days with genital lesions present) during the post-vaccination follow-up period
* Antiviral use.
* To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GEN-003 in combination with Matrix-M2.
