ABSTRACT:
Immunoassay techniques for quantitating the amount of 3'-amido-3'-deoxythymidine (AMT) in body fluid samples, and antibodies useful in performing such immunoassays, are provided. The immunoassays use antibodies which are specific to AMT and have no cross-reactivity with 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT). Moreover, there is provided an improved method of conducting AZT therapy wherein the concentration of both AZT and AMT is monitored and the AZT dosage is adjusted to maintain rather low concentrations of AMT.
