# MSK-CHORD (MSK, Nature 2024)

**Study ID:** `msk_chord_2024`

## Overview
Targeted sequencing via MSK-IMPACT panels. Clinical annotations include some derived from natural language processing (denoted NLP).

**Exactly five cancer types** (`CANCER_TYPE`, patients): Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer 7,809, Colorectal Cancer 5,543, Breast Cancer 5,368, Prostate Cancer 3,211, Pancreatic Cancer 3,109. There is **no melanoma** or any other cancer type; say so up front if asked, instead of substituting another type.

**No therapy-response variable.** There is no RECIST, objective response, or best-response attribute or event. For treatment-outcome questions (e.g. immunotherapy response), say this first; the only proxies are `OS_MONTHS`/`OS_STATUS`, or NLP radiology progression events (`Diagnosis` events with `SUBTYPE = 'Progression'`, key `PROGRESSION` = Y/N/Indeterminate), in patients with `Treatment` events of the relevant `SUBTYPE` (e.g. `Immuno`: 3,341 patients). Hand off the comparison to cBioPortal group comparison / survival.

**Nearly one sample per patient: 24,950 patients / 25,040 samples.** Only 90 patients have more than one sample, and all 90 have samples from two different cancer types (second primaries); only 26 have both a `Primary` and a `Metastasis` sample. There is no meaningful same-patient (paired) primary-vs-metastasis cohort. For "same patient" / paired questions, say this up front, then offer the **unpaired** comparison of all `Primary` vs `Metastasis` samples (`SAMPLE_TYPE`), labelled as unpaired.
```sql
SELECT countIf(n > 1) AS multi_sample_patients,         -- 90
       countIf(has_p AND has_m) AS primary_and_met      -- 26
FROM (SELECT patient_unique_id, count() AS n,
             has(groupArray(attribute_value), 'Primary') AS has_p,
             has(groupArray(attribute_value), 'Metastasis') AS has_m
      FROM clinical_data_derived
      WHERE cancer_study_identifier = 'msk_chord_2024' AND attribute_name = 'SAMPLE_TYPE'
      GROUP BY patient_unique_id);
```

## Gene Panels
This study uses multiple MSK-IMPACT panel versions:
- **IMPACT341**: Earlier version, 341 genes
- **IMPACT410**: 410 genes
- **IMPACT468**: 468 genes  
- **IMPACT505**: Latest version, 505 genes

**Important:** Different samples may have different gene coverage. Always use gene-specific denominators when calculating mutation frequencies.

═ answer (success)
## Result

**26 unique patients** in MSK-CHORD (`msk_chord_2024`) have both a `Primary` and a `Metastasis` sample.

Context:
- 24,950 total patients / 25,040 samples in the study — the vast majority have only one sample.
- Only 90 patients have more than one sample at all, and of those, 26 have both a Primary and a Metastasis sample (the rest of the 90 are second primaries from different cancer types).
- This is too small a cohort for a meaningful paired primary-vs-metastasis genomic comparison. If you want a broader comparison, the standard approach is the **unpaired** comparison of all Primary vs. Metastasis samples by `SAMPLE_TYPE` (15,928 vs. 8,878 samples).

Would you like me to navigate to a group comparison of these 26 paired patients specifically, or set up the larger unpaired Primary vs. Metastasis comparison instead?
