Cure Research discussion for Genital herpes:

Two important means of preventing HSV infection are vaccines and topical microbicides. Several different vaccines are in various stages of development. These include vaccines made from proteins on the HSV cell surface, peptides or chains of amino acids that present important targets to the immune system, and the DNA of the virus itself. Topical microbicides, preparations containing microbe-killing compounds, are also in various stages of development and testing.
