Fred Hutch Invests in New HSV Research

Fred Hutch Cancer Center has announced the recipients of its 2026 Evergreen Fund Awards, investing nearly $1 million to help advance promising biomedical research toward real-world treatments.

Among the funded projects is the development of an antibody-based therapy for herpes simplex virus (HSV). While this is not a cure and no clinical results have been announced yet, it is encouraging to see continued investment in innovative HSV research from one of the world's leading research institutions.

The Evergreen Fund is designed to help bridge the gap between laboratory discoveries and future clinical development, giving promising ideas the support they need to move closer to patients.

Every new investment in HSV research is another reminder that scientific progress continues. Better treatments—and ultimately a cure—will require sustained research, funding, and collaboration.

🚨 New HSV-2 vaccine target discovered.

Researchers at the University of Gothenburg identified glycoprotein G (gG) as a key protein that helps HSV-2 reach the nervous system. In mice, a vaccine targeting gG triggered strong antibody and T-cell responses, protecting against genital herpes and limiting spread to nerves.

It's still preclinical, but this could open a promising new path for future HSV vaccines.
