About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind Comparison of Zidovudine (AZT) Versus Stavudine (d4T; BMY 27857) for the Treatment of Patients With HIV Infection Who Have Absolute CD4 Lymphocyte Counts Between 50 and 500 Cells/mm3

To compare stavudine (d4T) and zidovudine (AZT) in slowing the progression of HIV disease. To compare the antiviral activity of d4T versus AZT as measured by plasma levels of p24 antigen and HIV viremia, and their relative efficacy by improvement and/or absence of adverse changes over time in laboratory parameters associated with HIV infection. To compare the safety of oral doses of d4T to AZT in patients with HIV infection.
