Regulatory / FDA Approvals & Guidance:

✅ The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) published a guidance entitled "Recurrent Herpes Labialis: Developing Drugs for Treatment and Prevention" which outlines the agency's current thinking on clinical‐trial design and development programs for treatments of recurrent herpes labialis caused by HSV‐1 or HSV‐2 in immunocompetent subjects.

✅ In 2025, there were no novel drug approvals (new molecular entity approvals) by the FDA that explicitly list herpes labialis (cold‐sores) as the indication.

✅ The FDA in June 2025 issued a final order classifying a herpes simplex virus nucleic acid‐based assay for central nervous system infections as a Class II device under 21 CFR 866. Although this is a diagnostic rather than a treatment, it's a relevant regulatory change in the HSV space.

✅ Some treatment assets in the pipeline (see below) are in early‐stage development; none have yet achieved U.S. approval for the RHL indication, as of publicly available data for 2025.
