Zidovudine is indicated for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV-1 infection as part of a regimen that includes oral zidovudine beginning between 14 and 34 weeks gestation, continuous intravenous infusion of zidovudine during labor, and administration of zidovudine syrup to the neonate for the first 6 weeks of life. However, transmission to infants may still occur in some cases despite the use of this regimen. /Included in US product labeling/

Zidovudine has been used prophylactically in health care workers at risk of acquiring HIV infection after occupational exposure to the virus. Risk of transmission from a single needlestick is approximately 0.3%. Efficacy, and optimal dose and duration of prophylactic treatment are unknown at this time; however, HIV infection has occurred in persons who received zidovudine prophylaxis after a needlestick or other parenteral exposure. /NOT included in US product labeling/

Adverse systemic effects reported with IV zidovudine are similar to those reported with oral zidovudine. However, clinical experience with IV zidovudine has been more limited than experience with oral zidovudine and the drug has generally been administered IV only for short periods of time. Long-term IV zidovudine therapy (i.e., longer than 2-4 weeks) has not been evaluated in adults and may enhance adverse hematologic effects.
McEvoy, G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service - Drug Information 2003. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 2003 (Plus Supplements)., p. 727
The most common adverse effects of zidovudine are hematologic effects (i.e., anemia, neutropenia), nausea, and headache. Because HIV-infected patients receiving zidovudine generally have serious underlying disease with multiple baseline symptomatology and clinical abnormalities and because many adverse effects that occurred in zidovudine-treated patients also occurred in patients receiving placebo, many reported effects may not be directly attributable to zidovudine. The frequency and severity of adverse effects associated with use of zidovudine in adults are greater in patients with more advanced disease at the time of initiation of therapy. In one study in asymptomatic patients receiving 100 mg of the drug orally 5 times daily for an average of longer than 1 year (range: 4 months to 2 years), only nausea occurred more frequently in patients receiving zidovudine than in those receiving placebo. Adverse effects reported with use of zidovudine in women, IV drug users, and racial minorities are similar to those reported with use of the drug in white males.

Four patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, and a history of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia developed severe pancytopenia (hemoglobin, less than 85 g/l; granulocytes, less than or equal to 0.5 X 10(9)/L; platelets, less than or equal to 30 X 10(9)/L) 12 to 17 weeks after the initiation of azidothymidine (AZT) therapy. The bone marrow was markedly hypocellular in three patients and moderately hypocellular in the fourth. Partial bone marrow recovery was documented within 4 to 5 weeks in three patients, but no marrow recovery has yet occurred in one patient during the more than 6 months since AZT treatment was discontinued.

Hematologic toxicity is causally related to zidovudine therapy, being directly related to dosage and duration of therapy with the drug, and has been reported most frequently in patients with advanced symptomatic HIV infection or low pretreatment hemoglobin concentrations, neutrophil counts, and helper/inducer (CD4+, T4+) T-cell counts. Patients with low serum folate or vitamin B12 concentrations may be at increased risk for developing bone marrow toxicity during zidovudine therapy. There also are limited data suggesting that bone marrow of patients with fulminant acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) may be more sensitive to zidovudine-induced toxicity than that of patients with less advanced disease (e.g., AIDS-related complex (ARC)).

Used in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of human immunovirus (HIV) infections.
FDA Label
Trizivir is indicated for the treatment of human-immunodeficiency-virus (HIV) infection in adults.
This fixed combination replaces the three components (abacavir, lamivudine and zidovudine) used separately in similar dosages. It is recommended that treatment is started with abacavir, lamivudine,and zidovudine separately for the first six to eight weeks. The choice of this fixed combination should be based not only on potential adherence criteria, but mainly on expected efficacy and risk related to the three nucleoside analogues.
The demonstration of the benefit of Trizivir is mainly based on results of studies performed in treatment naive patients or moderately antiretroviral experienced patients with non-advanced disease.
In patients with high viral load (> 100,000 copies/ml) choice of therapy needs special consideration.
Overall, the virologic suppression with this triple nucleoside regimen could be inferior to that obtained with other multitherapies notably including boosted protease inhibitors or non-nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors, therefore the use of Trizivir should only be considered under special circumstances (e. g. co-infection with tuberculosis).
Before initiating treatment with abacavir, screening for carriage of the HLA-B*5701 allele should be performed in any HIV-infected patient, irrespective of racial origin. Screening is also recommended prior to re-initiation of abacavir in patients of unknown HLA-B*5701 status who have previously tolerated abacavir (see 'management after an interruption of Trizivir therapy'). Abacavir should not be used in patients known to carry the HLA-B*5701 allele, unless no other therapeutic option is available in these patients, based on the treatment history and resistance testing.
Zidovudine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) with activity against Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1). Zidovudine is phosphorylated to active metabolites that compete for incorporation into viral DNA. They inhibit the HIV reverse transcriptase enzyme competitively and act as a chain terminator of DNA synthesis. The lack of a 3'-OH group in the incorporated nucleoside analogue prevents the formation of the 5' to 3' phosphodiester linkage essential for DNA chain elongation, and therefore, the viral DNA growth is terminated.

Absorption
Rapid and nearly complete absorption from the gastrointestinal tract following oral administration; however, because of first-pass metabolism, systemic bioavailability of zidovudine capsules and solution is approximately 65% (range, 52 to 75%). Bioavailability in neonates up to 14 days of age is approximately 89%, and it decreases to approximately 61% and 65% in neonates over 14 days of age and children 3 months to 12 years, respectively. Administration with a high-fat meal may decrease the rate and extent of absorption.
Route of Elimination
As in adult patients, the major route of elimination was by metabolism to GZDV. After intravenous dosing, about 29% of the dose was excreted in the urine unchanged and about 45% of the dose was excreted as GZDV.
Volume of Distribution
Apparent volume of distribution, HIV-infected patients, IV administration = 1.6 0.6 L/kg
Clearance
0.65+/- 0.29 L/hr/kg [HIV-infected, Birth to 14Days of Age]
1.14+/- 0.24 L/hr/kg [HIV-infected, 14Days to 3 Months of Age]
1.85 +/- 0.47 L/hr/kg [HIV-infected, 3 Months to 12Years of Age]. The transporters, ABCB1, ABCC4, ABCC5, and ABCG2 are involved with the clearance of zidovudine.
In patients with impaired renal function, plasma concentrations of zidovudine may be increased and the half-life prolonged. In one study in adults with impaired renal function (creatinine clearances ranging from 6-31 ml/minute) without HIV infections beta half life of zidovudine averaged 1.4 hours and was similar to that reported for adults with HIV infections who had normal renal function. However, the beta half life of glucuronide in these adults with impaired renal function averaged 8 hours and was considerably prolonged compared with that reported for adults with HIV infections who had normal renal function. In one study in adults with hemophilia and HIV infections who had elevated serum concentrations of aspartate aminotransferase (serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase), alanine aminotransferase (serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase), pharmacokinetics of zidovudine after a single 300 mg oral dose showed considerable interindividual variation.

Following oral administration of zidovudine in patients with HIV infections, 63-95% of the dose is excreted in urine; approximately 14-18% of the dose is excreted as unchanged zidovudine and 72-74% is excreted as zidovudine 5'-O-glucuronide within 6 hours. Following iv administration of the drug in adults or children with HIV infections, approximately 18-29% of the dose is excreted in urine as unchanged drug and 45-60% is excreted as zidovudine 5'-O-glucuronide within 6 hours.

Zidovudine and 3'-azodp-3'-deoxy-5'-O-beta-d-glucopyranuronosylthymidine are eliminated principally in urine via both glomerular filtration and tubular secretion. Following oral or IV administration in adults with HIV infection, total body clearance of zidovudine averages 1.6 l/hr per kg (range: 0.8-2.7 l/hr per kg) and renal clearance of the drug averages 0.34 l/hr per kg. In children 3 months to 12 years of age, the total body clearance averaged 1.85 l/hr per kg. In one limited study in neonates and infants younger than 3 months of age, total body clearance of the drug averaged 0.65 l/hr per kg in those 14 days of age or younger and 1.14 l/hr per kg in those older than 14 days of age.

Zidovudine is rapidly metabolized via glucuronidation in the liver to zidovudine 5'-O-glucuronide (GAZT); the metabolite has an apparent elimination half life of 1 hour (range: 0.6-1.7 hours). Zidovudine 5'-O-glucuronide does not appear to have antiviral activity against HIV.

Hepatic. Metabolized by glucuronide conjugation to major, inactive metabolite, 3′-azido-3′-deoxy-5′- O-beta-D-glucopyranuronosylthymidine (GZDV). UGT2B7 is the primary UGT isoform that is responsible for glucuronidation. Compared to zidovudine, GZDV's area under the curve is approximately 3-fold greater. The cytochrome P450 isozymes are responsible for the reduction of the azido moiety to form 3'-amino-3'- deoxythymidine (AMT).
Zidovudine is rapidly metabolized via glucuronidation in the liver principally to 3-azido-3-deoxy-5-O-beta-d-glucopyranuronosylthymidine (GZDV; formerly GAZT); zidovudine is also metabolized to GZDV in renal microsomes. GZDV has an apparent elimination half-life of 1 hour (range: 0.6-1.7 hours) and does not appear to have antiviral activity against HIV. In addition, two other hepatic metabolites of zidovudine have been identified as 3-amino-3-deoxythymidine (AMT) and its glucuronide derivative (GAMT). Intracellularly, in both virus-infected and uninfected cells, zidovudine is converted to zidovudine monophosphate by cellular thymidine kinase; the monophosphate derivative is phosphorylated to zidovudine diphosphate via cellular dTMP kinase (thymidylate kinase) and then to zidovudine triphosphate via other cellular enzymes. Intracellular (host cell) conversion of zidovudine to the triphosphate derivative is necessary for the antiviral activity of the drug. Activation for antibacterial action, however, does not depend on phosphorylation within host cells but rather depends on conversion within bacterial cells.

The mechanisms of intestinal mucosal transport and metabolism of zidovudine and other thymidine analogs were studied. No zidovudine metabolites appeared in any part of the gastrointestinal tract. Other thymidine analogs were rapidly metabolized in the upper gastrointestinal tract, but not in the colon.

Elimination half life, HIV-infected patients, IV administration = 1.1 hours (range of 0.5 - 2.9 hours)
The plasma half-life of zidovudine in adults averages approximately 0.53 hours following oral or IV administration. Following IV administration of zidovudine in adults or children, plasma concentrations of the drug appear to decline in a biphasic manner. Half-life in adults is less than 10 minutes in the initial phase and 1 hour in the terminal phase. Following IV administration over 1 hour of a single 80-, 120-, or 160-mg/sq m , dose in children 1-13 years of age with symptomatic HIV infection, the alpha half-life of zidovudine averaged 0.16-0.25 hours and the beta half-life averaged 1-1.7 hours. Plasma half-life of zidovudine generally is longer in neonates than in older children and adults but decreases with neonatal maturity. In one limited study in neonates and infants younger than 3 months of age, plasma half-life of zidovudine averaged 3.1 hours in those 14 days of age or younger and 1.9 hours in those older than 14 days of age. In a study in premature neonates (26-32 weeks gestation; birthweight 0.7-1.9 kg), the serum half-life of zidovudine averaged 7.3 hours at an average postnatal age of 6.3 days and averaged 4.4 hours at an average postnatal age of 17.7 days.

Zidovudine, a structural analog of thymidine, is a prodrug that must be phosphorylated to its active 5-triphosphate metabolite, zidovudine triphosphate (ZDV-TP). It inhibits the activity of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) via DNA chain termination after incorporation of the nucleotide analogue. It competes with the natural substrate dGTP and incorporates itself into viral DNA. It is also a weak inhibitor of cellular DNA polymerase and .
Zidovudine triphosphate can bind to and inhibit some mammalian cellular DNA polymerases, particularly beta- and gamma- polymerases, in vitro. However, zidovudine triphosphate appears to have a much greater affinity for viral RNA-directed DNA polymerase than for mammalian DNA polymerases. /Zidovudine triphosphate/

... The antiretroviral activity of zidovudine appears to depend on intracellular conversion of the drug to a triphosphate metabolite; thus zidovudine triphosphate and not unchanged zidovudine appears to be the pharmacologically active form of the drug. Zidovudine is converted to zidovudine monophosphate by cellular thymidine kinase; the monophosphate is phosphorylated to zidovudine diphosphate via cellular thymidylate kinase and then to the triphosphate via other cellular enzymes. ... Conversion of the drug to the active triphosphate derivative occurs in both virus infected and uninfected cells. ... Zidovudine triphosphate appears to compete with thymidine triphosphate for viral RNA-directed DNA polymerase and incorporation into viral DNA. Following incorporation of zidovudine triphosphate into the viral DNA chain instead of thymidine triphosphate, DNA synthesis is prematurely terminated because the 3'-azido group of zidovudine prevents further 5' to 3' phosphodiester linkages. In addition, zidovudine monophosphate competitively inhibits thymidylate kinase, resulting in decreased formation of thymidine triphosphate; thus, the drug can decrease concentrations of this natural substrate for RNA-directed DNA polyerase and facilitate binding of zidovudine triphosphate to the enzyme. The drug also appears to decrease 2'-deoxycytidine triphosphate concentrations, but the mechanism of this effect is not known.

... Antibacterial action of zidovudine appears to result from premature termination of bacterial DNA synthesis secondary to incorporation of phosphorylated zidovudine in the bacterial DNA chain. In vitro exposure of susceptible bacteria to the drug results in bacterial elongation and death secondary to cell lysis. ... The antibacterial action appears to depend on conversion of zidovudine to the active phosphorylated form via bacterial enzymes rather than via host enzymes. Zidovudine monophosphate, diphosphate, and triphosphate exhibit antibacterial activity in vitro with the triphosphate being most active and the monophosphate being least active. Susceptibility of bacteria to zidovudine appears to depend in large part on the presence of bacterial thymidine kinase. ... Organisms lacking thymidine kinase ... have been resistant to zidovudine, while those with relatively high concentrations of the enzyme ... have been highly susceptible to the drug; in addition, mutants resistant to the drug have had relatively low concentrations of the enzyme. The antibacterial activity of zidovudine also appears to depend in part on other factors such as permeability of the organism to the drug.
