Metagenomic and Metabolomic Analyses Reveal Synergistic Effects of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation and Anti-PD-1 Therapy on Treating Colorectal Cancer
Abstract:Anti-PD-1 immunotherapy has saved numerous lives of cancer patients; however, it only exerts efficacy in 10-15% of patients with colorectal cancer. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a potential approach to improving the efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy, whereas the detailed mechanisms and the applicability of this combination therapy remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the synergistic effect of FMT with anti-PD-1 in curing colorectal tumor-bearing mice using a multi-omics approach. Mice treated wi… Show more
