Abstract
REVERSAL OF INTESTINAL DYSBIOSIS MAY IMPROVE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CHEMOTHERAPY AND RADIATION THERAPY IN CANCER TREATMENT
Kedar N. Prasad*
ABSTRACT
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy have produced increased 5-year survival rate in majority of cancers.However, acute toxicity during treatment remains a major problem. Therefore, new biological non-toxic strategythat can reduce acute side-effects of these therapies is needed.

It alsoincreases the acute adverse effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy and interfere with the effectiveness ofthese therapies.
