The role of gut microbiome in cancer genesis and cancer prevention
Cancer is the second leading cause of fatalities at the global level, and the involvement of microbes in several diseases, including cancer is well known. The gut microbiome is known to have an essential role in the regulation of the host’s health and...
Nivolumab plus ipilimumab with or without live bacterial supplementation in metastatic renal cell carcinoma: a randomized phase 1 trial
Previous studies have suggested that the gut microbiome influences the response to checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) in patients with cancer. CBM588 is a bifidogenic live bacterial product that we postulated could augment CPI response through modulation of the gut...
Intestinal microbiota signatures of clinical response and immune-related adverse events in melanoma patients treated with anti-PD-1
Ample evidence indicates that the gut microbiome is a tumor-extrinsic factor associated with antitumor response to anti-programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) therapy, but inconsistencies exist between published microbial signatures associated with clinical outcomes....
Current status of intratumour microbiome in cancer and engineered exogenous microbiota as a promising therapeutic strategy
Research on the relationship between microbiome and cancer has made significant progress in the past few decades. It is now known that the gut microbiome has multiple effects on tumour biology. However, the relationship between intratumoral bacteria and cancers...
The gut microbiota can be a potential regulator and treatment target of bone metastasis
The gut microbiota, an often forgotten organ, have a tremendous impact on human health. It has long been known that the gut microbiota are implicated in cancer development, and more recently, the gut microbiota have been shown to influence cancer metastasis to distant...
A natural polyphenol exerts antitumor activity and circumvents anti-PD-1 resistance through effects on the gut microbiota
Several approaches to manipulate the gut microbiome for improving the activity of cancer immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are currently under evaluation. Here, we show that oral supplementation with the polyphenol-rich berry camu-camu (CC, Myrciaria dubia) in mice...
Scientists discover link between gut microbiota and chronic inflammatory diseases like arthritis
An international research team has established a link between gut microbiota and chronic inflammatory diseases such as arthritis. The team led by Éric Boilard of Université Laval has discovered that a protein naturally present in the gut acts on the microbiota and...
International Conference on Microbiome Research
The International Research Conference is a federated organization dedicated to bringing together a significant number of diverse scholarly events for presentation within the conference program. Events will run over a span of time during the conference depending on the...
