Microbiota: A key factor affecting and regulating the efficacy of immunotherapy.

Different microbiota cause changes in the tumour microenvironment through microbial signals thereby affecting immunotherapy efficacy. Translocation of gut microbiota and the role of extraintestinal microbiota in immunotherapy deserve attention. Microbiota regulation is a novel strategy for combination therapy with immunotherapy. Although there are several aspects that deserve further refinement and exploration with regard to administration and clinical translation. Nevertheless, it is foreseeable that the microbiota will become an integral part of cancer treatment.
