Simplified and unified access to cancer proteogenomic data
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Comprehensive cancer datasets recently generated by the Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) offer great potential for advancing our understanding of how to combat cancer. These datasets include DNA, RNA, protein, and clinical characterization for tumor and normal samples from large cohorts in many different cancer types. The raw data are publicly available at various Cancer Research Data Commons. However, widespread re-use of these datasets is also facilitated by easy access to the processed quantitative data tables. We have created a Python package, cptac , which is a data API that distributes the finalized processed CPTAC datasets in a consistent, up-to-date format. This consistency makes it easy to integrate the data with common graphing, statistical, and machine learning packages for advanced analysis. Additionally, consistent formatting across all cancer types promotes the investigation of pan-cancer trends. The data API structure of directly streaming data within a programming environment enhances reproducibility. Finally, with the accompanying tutorials, this package provides a novel resource for cancer research education.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
