Abstract: Lymphoma is one of the most common hematological malignancies which has many subtypes and high heterogeneity. Traditional treatments include chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery. Patients with relapsed, refractory or advanced stage lymphoma still have dismal prognosis. In recent years, the development of immunotherapies for lymphoma has brought patients new hope. This paper reviews the current and novel immunotherapies for lymphoma, including monoclonal antibody therapy, immune checkpoint blockers, and chimeric antigen receptor T cells therapies.

Key words: Lymphoma, Immunotherapy, Monoclonal antibody therapy, Immune checkpoint, Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy
