Understanding the distinction is crucial for accurate analysis. ## Data Organization ### Patient-Level vs Sample-Level Data - **Patient-level**: Demographics, overall survival, disease stage (stored once per patient) - **Sample-level**: Sample type, sequencing platform, purity (can have multiple per patient) ### Key Tables - `clinical_patient`: Patient-level clinical attributes - `clinical_sample`: Sample-level clinical attributes - `clinical_data_derived`: Pre-joined view combining both levels - `clinical_attribute_meta`: Metadata about available clinical attributes ## Recommended Approach: Use clinical_data_derived The `clinical_data_derived` table is pre-joined and optimized for most queries: ```sql -- Get clinical data for specific attributes SELECT sample_unique_id, patient_unique_id, attribute_name, attribute_value FROM clinical_data_derived WHERE cancer_study_identifier = 'your_study_id' AND attribute_name IN ('CANCER_TYPE', 'SAMPLE_TYPE', 'TMB_NONSYNONYMOUS'); ``` ## Clinical Attribute Discovery ### Use clinical_attribute_meta for Discovering Available Attributes **Always start here** to see what clinical attributes are available for a specific study: ```sql -- Discover available clinical attributes for a study SELECT attr_id, description, patient_attribute, cancer_study_id FROM clinical_attribute_meta WHERE cancer_study_id = ( SELECT cancer_study_id FROM cancer_study WHERE cancer_study_identifier = 'your_study_id' ) ORDER BY patient_attribute, attr_id; ``` **Key Fields:** - **attr_id**: matches attr_id in clinical_sample/clinical_patient tables - **description**: human-readable description of the attribute - **patient_attribute**: true = patient attribute, false = sample attribute - **cancer_study_id**: links to cancer_study table (filter by study) ## Attribute Semantics and Matching ### Case-Insensitive Matching for Attribute Values Clinical values are free text across studies and may differ only by case. For example, a controlled-looking value such as germline mutation status may appear as `GERMLINE`, `Germline`, or another case variant. When filtering `clinical_data_derived.attribute_value`, use case-insensitive matching unless you have already profiled the exact values in the target study: ```sql -- Correct: case-insensitive clinical value filter SELECT DISTINCT sample_unique_id, patient_unique_id FROM clinical_data_derived WHERE cancer_study_identifier = 'your_study_id' AND attribute_name = 'MUTATION_STATUS' AND upper(attribute_value) = 'GERMLINE'; ``` Do not write `attribute_value = 'GERMLINE'` without first checking all distinct values for that attribute in the study. ### Query the Requested Attribute, Not a Proxy Do not infer one clinical attribute from a related subtype or marker.

I derived it using the consortium-standard definition from the GLASS project (Nature 2019/2020): a recurrent-tumor mutation burden ≥**10-fold** higher than the matched primary tumor, restricted to patients with alkylating-agent (TMZ) exposure recorded (`ALKYLATING_AGENT_TX = Yes`) at the primary sample and available paired `MUTATION_COUNT` data. | Metric | Count | |---|---| | TMZ/alkylating-agent-exposed patients with paired primary + recurrence mutation counts | 178 | | **Patients developing hypermutation (≥10× mutation burden increase) at recurrence** | **31** | So **31 of 178 evaluable TMZ-treated GLASS patients (~17.4%)** developed hypermutation at recurrence, consistent with the well-documented TMZ-induced hypermutator phenotype described in the GLASS literature (driven largely by mismatch-repair pathway defects — not verified here via driver annotation). Top examples of extreme fold-changes: GLSS-MD-0032 (11→1,852 mutations, 168×), GLSS-MD-0090 (25→2,685, 107×), GLSS-SU-0270 (35→3,045, 87×). **Caveats:** - This is a descriptive threshold-based calculation from raw `MUTATION_COUNT`, not an official cBioPortal-curated "hypermutator" label — treat the ≥10× cutoff as one reasonable convention, not a fixed database field. - 693 samples/329 patients total in `difg_glass`; not all had both a primary and a recurrence sample with mutation counts, so the denominator (178) reflects only evaluable pairs among alkylating-agent-treated patients.
