Abstract Pancreatic cancer is a major cause of cancer-related death, but despondently, the outlook and prognosis for this resistant type tumor have remained grim long time. Currently, it extremely challenging to prevent or detect early enough effective treatment because patients rarely exhibit symptoms there are no reliable indicators detection. Most advanced spreading that difficult treat, treatments like chemotherapy radiotherapy can only slightly prolong their life by few months. Immunotherapy has revolutionized pancreatic cancer, yet its effectiveness limited tumor's immunosuppressive hard-to-reach microenvironment. First, article explains microenvironment highlights wide range immunotherapy options, including therapies involving oncolytic viruses, modified T cells (T-cell receptor [TCR]-engineered chimeric antigen [CAR] T-cell therapy), CAR natural killer cell therapy, cytokine-induced cells, immune checkpoint inhibitors, immunomodulators, vaccines, strategies targeting myeloid in context contemporary knowledge future trends. Lastly, discusses main challenges ahead immunotherapy.

The gut microbiota plays an essential role in maintaining immune homeostasis and influencing the landscape within tumor microenvironment. This review aims to elucidate interactions between dynamics, with a focus on colorectal cancer (CRC). spans foundational concepts of immuno-microbial interplay, factors microbiome composition, evidence linking immunotherapy outcomes. Gut modulates anti-cancer immunity through several mechanisms, including enhancement surveillance modulation inflammatory responses. Specific microbial species their metabolic byproducts can significantly influence efficacy immunotherapies. Furthermore, diversity correlates clinical outcomes CRC, suggesting potential as valuable biomarker for predicting response immunotherapy. Conclusions: Understanding relationship responses offers novel therapeutic strategies development. not only influences natural history treatment CRC but also serves critical modulator activity. Further exploration into microbiome's could enhance effectiveness existing treatments guide development new modalities.

Cancer immunotherapy is a treatment modality that aims to stimulate the anti-tumor immunity of host elicit favorable clinical outcomes. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) gained traction due lasting effects and better tolerance in patients carrying solid tumors comparison conventional treatment. However, significant portion may present primary or acquired resistance (non-responders), thus, they have limited therapeutic Resistance ICIs can be derived from host-related, tumor-intrinsic, environmental factors. Recent studies suggest correlation gut microbiota with response as well incidence adverse events. Currently, preclinical aim elucidate unique microbial signatures related ICI immunity, employing metagenomics and/or multi-omics. Decoding this complex relationship provide basis for manipulating malleable structure enhance success. Here, we delve into factors affecting ICIs, focusing on intricate microbiome–immunity interplay.
