Modulation of gut microbiota: a novel approach to enhancing the effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors

Jinglong Huang,
Caifeng Gong,
Aiping Zhou

Abstract: Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have greatly improved the prognosis of some cancer patients, the majority still fail to respond adequately, and the available biomarkers cannot reliably predict drug efficacy. The gut microbiota has received widespread attention among the various intrinsic and extrinsic factors contributing to drug resistance. As an essential regulator of physiological function, the impact of gut microbiota on host immunity and response to cancer therapy is increasingly recognized. … Show more

“…And the importance of anti-IL-17 and anti-IL-6 in enhancing the efficacy of ICIs and controlling the development of irAEs has been confirmed (114,115). Similarly, there are evidences that modulation of the gut microbiota enhances the antitumor effects of ICIs (116,117). However, at present, studies on the association of these cytokines and gut microbes with ICI-AKI are very limited.…”

“…Based on these, therapeutic interventions aimed at restoring the establishment of a health-promoting gut microbiota could be useful for the prevention and treatment of gut dysbiosis. Diverse strategies, ranging from the use of probiotics, prebiotics, and pharmaceutical compounds to non-pharmacological approaches, such as faecal microbiota transplantation, have been shown to be effective in positively modulating the microbiota [ 30 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 ]. Importantly, one area that has gained increasing interest in recent years is the role of prebiotics in these processes.…”
