- Overall response rate (ORR) of trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201a) assessed by independent central review (ICR) [ Time Frame: within 30 months ]ORR is assessed for each cohort by ICR, based on Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1
- Overall response rate (ORR) of trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201a) assessed by investigator [ Time Frame: within 30 months ]ORR is assessed for each cohort by the investigator
- Duration of Response (DoR) [ Time Frame: within 30 months ]Assessment categories: Investigator, ICR
- Progression-free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: within 30 months ]Assessment categories: Investigator, ICR
- Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: until the end of the trial, including 40-day follow-up visit, followed by long-term follow-up visits until death, withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, or study closure, whichever occurs first (within approximately 30 months) ]

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age ≥20 years old in Japan, ≥18 years old in other countries
- Pathologically documented unresectable and/or metastatic non-squamous NSCLC
- Has relapsed from or is refractory to standard treatment or for which no standard treatment is available
- For Cohort 1 and Cohort 1a: HER2-overexpression (IHC 2+ or 3+) status must be assessed and confirmed by Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)-certified laboratory or equivalent, from an archival tumor tissue sample
- For Cohort 2 only: Participant has any known documented activating HER2 mutation from an archival tumor tissue sample analyzed by CLIA laboratory or equivalent. Note: HER2 mutation documented only from a liquid biopsy sample cannot be used for enrollment.
- Presence of at least 1 measurable lesion assessed by the investigator and based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1
- Is willing and able to provide an adequate archival tumor tissue sample
- Is willing to undergo a tissue biopsy, after the completion of the most recent treatment regimen
- Has Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of 0 to 1
Exclusion Criteria:
- Had been previously treated with HER2-targeted therapies, except for pan-HER class tyrosine kinase inhibitors
- For Cohort 1 and Cohort 1a: Has known HER2 mutation
- Has a medical history of myocardial infarction, symptomatic congestive heart failure (CHF) (NYHA classes II-IV), unstable angina or serious cardiac arrhythmia
- Has a history of (non-infectious) interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis that required steroids, or current ILD/pneumonitis, or suspected ILD/pneumonitis that cannot be ruled out due to imaging at screening
- Has a QT interval corrected by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) prolongation to > 450 millisecond (ms) in males and > 470 ms in females
- Has a medical history of clinically significant lung disease
- Is suspected to have certain other protocol-defined diseases based on imaging at screening period
-
Has history of any disease, metastatic condition, drug/medication use or other condition that might, per protocol or in the opinion of the investigator, compromise:
- safety or well-being of the participant or offspring
- safety of study staff
- analysis of results
