Gut microbiome may affect responses to numerous forms of cancer therapy.
The gut microbiota plays a multifaceted role in cancer biology, influencing tumor development, progression, and patient prognosis. Dysbiosis and specific microbial populations have been linked to various cancers, with implications for patient outcomes. While the relationship between gut microbiota and cancer prognosis is an active area of research, it holds promise for the development of microbiome-based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies in oncology.
