Assembly is also developing antiviral candidates for herpes simplex virus (HSV), including ABI-5366, a long-acting helicase-primase inhibitor intended to prevent viral replication. These programs remain investigational and are subject to clinical and regulatory evaluation. Assembly Biosciences has historically advanced its programs through a combination of internal research and strategic collaboration.
