Abstract

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains one of the leading causes of global cancer mortality despite advances in immunotherapy. While immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 axis have transformed clinical outcomes for selected patients, response rates remain highly variable due to tumor heterogeneity, immune escape mechanisms, and evolving biomarker complexity. The need for dynamic, integrative biomarkers that better predict treatment response and guide personalized therapy is increasingly critical. This narrative review synthesizes recent advances (2023–2025) in genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic, and liquid-biopsy-based biomarkers relevant to NSCLC immunotherapy. Key databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, were screened, with emphasis on emerging artificial intelligence (AI) and digital twin–based frameworks supporting precision immuno-oncology. Across studies, single biomarkers such as PD-L1 or tumor mutational burden (TMB) demonstrate limited standalone predictive value. Multi-omic signatures incorporating circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) fragmentomics, exosomal PD-L1, T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire diversity, DDR alterations, metabolic checkpoint activity, and spatial immune profiling demonstrate improved accuracy and clinical relevance (clinical and preclinical evidence). AI-based multimodal models and digital immune twins further enhance predictive capacity by mapping resistance trajectories and simulating individualized therapeutic responses (computational/model-based evidence).The transition from static biomarkers toward integrated multi-omic and AI-driven decision frameworks represents a paradigm shift in NSCLC immunotherapy. These emerging platforms support a future of adaptive, anticipatory, and personalized treatment strategies with strong translational potential.
