Background: Zoledronic acid (ZA) is associated with a transient post-infusional acute phase reaction (APR) due to the activation of γδTCR lymphocytes (γδTcells).Aims: To investigate if APR correlates with γδTcell percentage or cytokine polarization, or with 25-OH vitamin D levels; to identify a 25-OH vitamin D level associated with a lower risk of APR.Methods: Sera for ELISA test (IFNγ, IL17, and ...
