NCI Genomic Data Commons (open aggregated data)

Harmonized cancer genomics from TCGA, TARGET, CPTAC, FM-AD and other programs. CancerIndex ingests only open-access aggregates: projects as genomic cohorts (case counts, cases with somatic mutation data) and per-project top mutated genes as gene alteration frequencies with explicit denominators.
