cBioPortal Search
- Resolve the canonical gene with
science_search_cbioportal and cross-check Entrez/Ensembl IDs.
- Define cancer type, study, molecular profile, sample list, alteration class, and denominator before cohort retrieval.
- Preserve study version, sample/patient unit, assay platform, filtering, missingness, alteration frequency, and access time.
- Use
$cx-cancer-genomics-evidence for multi-cohort synthesis and $science-review before translational conclusions.
Do not compare frequencies across cohorts without reconciling eligibility, assay coverage, sample unit, and missing data. This is not patient-specific interpretation.
Store cohort queries and denominators with $science-provenance before $science-review.
