What does\u00a0<a class=\"textTag\" href=\"https:\/\/medicalxpress.com\/tags\/cancer\/\" rel=\"tag\">cancer<\/a>\u00a0have to do with poop? In the past few years, researchers around the world, including us, have realized that the gut bacteria \u2013 what we call the gut microbiome \u2013 of cancer\u00a0<a class=\"textTag\" href=\"https:\/\/medicalxpress.com\/tags\/patients\/\" rel=\"tag\">patients<\/a>\u00a0may hold the key to improving cancer therapies for patients. Exactly how this happens is unclear, but may be linked to the ability of gut bacteria to boost our natural immune responses. The gut microbiome comprises the entire collection of microorganisms dwelling in the gastrointestinal tract. But\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/doi.org\/10.1080\/2162402X.2018.1434468\">recent research<\/a>\u00a0suggests that the microbes in the gut might not be idle bystanders. Rather, they may be critical for helping patients respond to new drugs called \u201cimmune checkpoint inhibitors\u201d that help immune cells recognize tumor cells and attack them. My goal as an oncologist who specializes in melanoma is to develop new approaches to treat advanced cancer, particularly in patients whose cancers fail to respond to these otherwise powerful immunotherapies. To this end we decided to investigate whether certain types of microbes could boost the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors and designed an unique\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.clinicaltrials.gov\/ct2\/show\/NCT03341143\">clinical trial to test whether the gut microbiome influences the efficacy of these medicines in melanoma patients<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-banner first-banner\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/women\/news\/20180725\/are-doctors-removing-too-many-thyroids#1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Are Doctors Removing Too Many Thyroids?<\/strong><\/a> &#8211; More Americans than ever are being diagnosed with thyroid cancer, and most are having the entire gland removed in response.
