Zoledronic acid boosts γδ T-cell activity in children receiving αβ+ T and CD19+ cell-depleted grafts from an HLA-haplo-identical donor

We demonstrated that γδ T cells of patients given HLA-haploidentical HSCT after removal of αβ+ T cells and CD19+ B cells are endowed with the capacity of killing leukemia cells after ex vivo treatment with zoledronic acid (ZOL). Thus, we tested the hypothesis that infusion of ZOL in patients receivi...
