Abstract excerpt
A transplacental carcinogenicity study was conducted by exposing pregnant Swiss (CD-1) mice to 0, 50, 100, 200, or 300 mg of 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT)/kg bw/day, through a 18 to 19-day gestation [National Toxicology Program, NIH Pub. No. 04-4458, 2004]. The incidences of alveolar/bronchiolar adenomas and carcinomas, in the 200 and 300 mg/kg male treatment groups, were significantly greater than that of the...
