We sought to determine whether the intracellular activation of zidovudine (ZDV) varied over time and with previous antiretroviral exposure in human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals and to examine whether there is an association between virological responses and intracellular phosphorylation. A total of 23 patients (12 treatment naïve, 11 previously treated with ZDV) who commenced ZDV as part of dual nucleoside therapy were prospectively monitored for 12 months or until withdrawal from the study. No association was observed between virological responses at 2 weeks and 3 months and ZDV phosphorylation. The mean intracellular concentrations of ZDV mono-, di-, and triphosphates did not change significantly over time or with previous ZDV exposure. The rate of formation of total ZDV phosphates was increased in patients with CD4 counts <100 cells/mm(3). Previous reports from in vitro cell culture experiments or cross-sectional cohort studies suggesting alterations of ZDV phosphorylation over time are not confirmed by this longitudinal study.
