Access
Processed data download from the cBioPortal study page or its public REST API; no account required. Primary raw data remain wherever the original investigators deposited them.
- Open components
- harmonized mutation, copy-number, expression and clinical files
- License
- Per-study terms; cBioPortal asks that the original study be cited
- Citation requirement
- Cite the original publication, and cite cBioPortal if the portal's harmonized files were used.
What it is good for
Written and checked by a reviewer, not generated from metadata.
No reviewed research questions yet. The measurements and field completeness above are machine-extracted and still useful for judging fit.
What it cannot tell you
Written by a reviewer against the source, not inferred from what is missing.
No reviewed limitations yet. Check the field completeness chart above before committing to an analysis. Low coverage on an endpoint you need is the most common blocker.
Who has used it
Articles that analyzed these data, counted separately from articles that only cited the paper. Only the first counts as reuse.
- Not assessed: this dataset has no accession specific enough for citation-based reuse tracing, so a shortfall cannot be measured.
