A total of 107 NSCLC patients with de novo HER2 mutations were retrospectively studied at Guangdong Lung Cancer Institute [GLCI cohort, exon 20 insertions (ex20ins): 71.0%] to compare clinical/molecular features and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)‐based therapy efficacy between patients with ex20ins and non‐ex20ins. Here, ERBB2 is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
