The intricate relationship between anticancer drugs and the gut microbiome influences cancer treatment outcomes. This review paper focuses on role of integrity in enhancing efficacy safety drug therapy, emphasizing pharmacokinetic interactions microbiota. It explores how disruptions to composition, or dysbiosis, can alter metabolism, immune responses, side effects. By examining mechanisms disruption caused by drugs, this highlights specific case studies like cyclophosphamide, 5-fluorouracil, irinotecan, their impact microbial diversity clinical also discusses microbiome-targeted strategies, including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), as promising interventions enhance treatment. Furthermore, potential profiling personalizing therapy integrating these into practice is explored. Finally, proposes future research directions, developing novel biomarkers a deeper comprehension drug-microbiome interactions, respond current gaps knowledge improve patient outcomes care.
