Newly Described Bacteria Enhances Efficacy of Immune Checkpoint Blockade

Major Finding: The microbiomes of patients that respond to anti–PD-1 are enriched for a newly described bacterial strain, YB328.Concept: YB328 promotes the maturation and migration of CD103+CD11b– cDCs and enhances CD8+ T-cell activation.Impact: This study suggests that YB328, a bacteria present in many human microbiomes, may be leveraged to improve immunotherapy.
