Various driver gene mutations have been identified in lung cancer. Among them, human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) was identified in approximately 2% of non-small-cell lung cancers. Pyrotinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting both HER-1 and HER-2 receptors. This is a prospective, single-arm, open-label phase II study, designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pyrotinib combined with thalidomide in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer patients with HER2 exon 20 insertions.

Changes in Scores of European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30)
QLQ-C30 scores were standardized to a scale ranging from 0-100 by linear transformation. For global health status/quality of life and functional subscales, higher scores indicate a higher (better) level of function, whereas for the symptom subscales, higher scores indicate a higher (worse) severity of symptoms.
Time frame: 24 months
Changes in Scores of EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire-Lung Cancer Module 13 (QLQ-LC13)
QLQ-LC13 scores were standardized to a scale ranging from 0-100 by linear transformation. For global health status/quality of life and functional subscales, higher scores indicate a higher (better) level of function, whereas for the symptom subscales, higher scores indicate a higher (worse) severity of symptoms.
