I don't have any specific information about clinical trials for "gene splitting" related to herpes. However, I'd be happy to provide some general information about current herpes research and treatments.

Herpes is a viral infection caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). While there is no cure yet, several antiviral medications like acyclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir can help reduce the frequency and severity of outbreaks. Researchers are also working on developing vaccines and exploring new treatment approaches.

Some key areas of herpes research include:

- Therapeutic vaccines to prevent or reduce outbreaks
- Gene editing techniques like CRISPR to disrupt the virus
- New antivirals that target different stages of the viral life cycle
- Exploring the link between herpes and conditions like Alzheimer's disease

However, I don't have details on any specific "gene splitting" clinical trials. New treatments go through rigorous testing and clinical trial phases before potential approval.

I'd recommend speaking to your healthcare provider or checking reliable medical websites for the latest updates on herpes research and clinical trials that may be recruiting participants. They would have the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Please let me know if you have any other questions! I'm happy to provide friendly support and accurate information about herpes and STDs to the best of my abilities.
