Today, AZT is seen as a mediocre but useful medicine: It has a place in the triple-combo therapy, and it can prevent the transmission of HIV from infected mothers to their babies two-thirds of the time.
We conclude that the additional AZT resistance conferred by codon 219 mutations did not provide significant selective advantage to the profiled HIV viruses, possibly because HIV had already acquired the maximum effective AZT resistance selectable, in vivo , when mutations arose at this codon.
Alternatively, the lysine at codon 219 may be important for proper in vivo RT function such that the advantage conferred by increased AZT resistance does not adequately compensate for impaired RT function.
For two years researchers debated whether to compare new therapies to the full AZT regimen or to no treatment at all.
When first approved by the FDA in 1987, AZT was hailed as a godsend.
