Rechallenge with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) shows promise in various cancers, but data in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency and safety of ICI rechallenge in ESCC. This multicenter study analyzed ESCC patients rechallenged with ICI from January 2020 to March 2023 across two medical institutions.

Microbial dysbiosis, which refers to an imbalance in the bacterial composition and bacterial metabolic activities, plays an important role in regulating breast cancer development and progression. However, the impact of specific intratumor-resident bacteria on tumor progression and their underlying mechanisms remain elusive.
