Immunotherapy in NK/T-Cell Lymphoma: Mechanisms, Clinical Evidence, Resistance, and Emerging Multimodal Strategies

Natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL) is a rare and aggressive Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)-associated lymphoma characterized by intrinsic chemoresistance and an immunosuppressive tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). EBV-driven immune dysregulation provides a biological rationale for immunotherapy. This review summarizes current advances in immunotherapeutic strategies for NKTCL, integrating molecular mechanisms, clinical evidence, and resistance mechanisms within the context of TIME remodeling an
