Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of natural killer cell mediated immune response to a tumor cell. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of natural killer cell mediated immune response to a tumor cell. Any immune system process that functions in the calibrated response of an organism to a potential internal or invasive threat. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of natural killer cell mediated immune response to a tumor cell. Any process involved in the carrying out of an immune response by a lymphocyte. An immune response mediated by a natural killer cell triggered in response to the presence of a tumor cell. Innate immune responses are defense responses mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus from a tumor cell. An immune system process that functions in the response of an organism to a tumor cell. The promotion of an immune response by natural killer cells through direct recognition of target cells or through the release of cytokines. The directed killing of a tumor cell by a natural killer cell through the release of granules containing cytotoxic mediators or through the engagement of death receptors.
