For users who wish to compare data across different types of cancer
To view multiple types of cancer patients side-by-side you will need to start with a Pan-Cancer dataset and then filter down to just the cancer types you want to see.
The TCGA PanCan Study contains the latest data from the PanCan Atlas project, including many hand curated datasets. It also contains some legacy TCGA data across all cancer types, including GISTIC 2 CNV estimates and miRNAseq estimates.
1. Add the phenotype column cancer type abbreviation that details the cancer type.
Here is a bookmark that will take you to the TCGA PanCan (PANCAN) Study with that phenotype column already selected.
2. Search for the cancer type you are interested in, making sure that it is listed in the phenotype column. Separate each cancer type by 'OR'. Example: 'lgg OR gbm'. Click the Filter + subgroup menu next to the search bar and select 'Keep Samples'.
Below is an example for viewing breast and ovarian cancer together for the TCGA PanCan Atlas
