Immunotherapies have revolutionized the treatment of certain cancers, but challenges remain in overcoming immunotherapy resistance. Research shows that metabolic modulation of the tumor microenvironment can enhance antitumor immunity. Here, we discuss recent preclinical and clinical evidence for the efficacy of combining metabolic modifiers with immunotherapies. While this combination holds great promise, a few key areas must be addressed, which include identifying the effects of metabolic modifiers on immune cell metabolism, the putative biomarkers of therapeutic efficacy, the efficacy of modifiers on tumors harboring metabolic heterogeneity, and the potential development of resistance due to tumor reliance on alternative metabolic pathways. We propose solutions to these problems and posit that assessing these parameters is crucial for considering the potential of metabolic modifiers in sensitizing tumors to immunotherapies.
