Systematic reviews and meta\u2010analyses investigating ICIs in hematologic malignancies were included. The AMSTAR tool was used to assess methodological quality, and the GRADE system was employed to evaluate the quality of evidence for each outcome.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 24 meta\u2010analyses met the inclusion criteria, covering 39 unique interventions. ICIs demonstrated significant efficacy in multiple myeloma (MM), relapsed\/refractory natural killer T\u2010cell lymphoma (R\/R NKT), relapsed\/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (R\/R CLL), and relapsed\/refractory primary mediastinal B\u2010cell lymphoma (R\/R PMBCL). Pembrolizumab combined with lenalidomide and dexamethasone (PLD) significantly improved overall survival (OS) in MM (HR: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.32 to 0.82, high quality). In R\/R NKT, sintilimab and other ICIs showed moderate overall response rates (ORR) with favorable safety profiles. Pembrolizumab also demonstrated moderate efficacy in R\/R CLL and R\/R PMBCL, with low rates of severe adverse events. However, the studies exhibited significant heterogeneity, and publication bias was detected in certain outcomes, highlighting the need for cautious interpretation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ICIs show promising therapeutic potential in several hematologic malignancies, particularly R\/R NKT, MM, R\/R CLL, and R\/R PMBCL. While safety profiles are generally favorable, certain regimens are associated with manageable toxicities. Future research should focus on optimizing combination therapies, refining patient selection criteria, and addressing study heterogeneity to enhance the clinical application of ICIs in hematologic cancers.<\/jats:p>\n
