Core Tip Combination of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy has improved efficacy and survival in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, a substantial proportion still fail to respond due to resistance driven by the tumor microenvironment. Emerging strategies targeting gut microbiota offer promising avenues to overcome this barrier. Certain microbial taxa have been associated with enhanced T-cell infiltration and improved ICI responses. Additionally, microbial metabolites like butyrate and desaminotyrosine exert immunomodulatory effects that may restore sensitivity to ICIs. Dual-target approaches combining ICIs and microbiota modulation hold potential to improve progression-free and overall survival in HCC.
