Statistical Test Selection Guide
================================

Purpose
-------
This guide ensures the correct statistical test is selected before performing any group comparison, matching cBioPortal's own Group Comparison defaults.

HARD RULES — NEVER FABRICATE A STATISTIC
----------------------------------------
ClickHouse cannot run statistical tests. The agent therefore must NEVER produce a derived statistic that is not a literal column value from a SQL result. Specifically:

1. **Never invent a p-value.** Not "p < 0.001", not "p ≈ 0.05", not any p-value. If the user asks "what is the p-value?", the answer is *"I can't compute that — here is the 2x2 contingency table (or group statistics). Run it in cBioPortal's Group Comparison tab, in R with `fisher.test(...)` / `wilcox.test(...)`, or in Python with `scipy.stats.fisher_exact(...)` / `mannwhitneyu(...)`."*
2. **Never claim mutual exclusivity (or co-occurrence) from a contingency table alone.** A 2x2 table is not a test. The shape "altered/not altered × group A/group B" needs Fisher's exact + a defined direction (odds ratio < 1 with significant p). Without that test, the agent presents the table and stops. Descriptive phrasing is also a claim: "largely/mostly mutually exclusive", "rarely co-occur", "tend to co-occur" are forbidden without the test — point to cBioPortal's Mutual Exclusivity tab instead.
3. **Never report a "median" that came from `AVG(...)` or any non-median aggregate.** "Median" and "mean" are different statistics; for skewed clinical distributions (especially survival) they differ substantially. Use ClickHouse's `quantile(0.5)(...)` for actual median, and label arithmetic averages as "mean", never "median".
4. **Never report a hazard ratio, odds ratio, risk ratio, or relative risk** that wasn't computed by an external tool. These require regression / model fitting that ClickHouse does not do.
5. **Never report median overall survival from `AVG(OS_MONTHS)` or even `quantile(0.5)(OS_MONTHS)`.** Median OS requires Kaplan-Meier estimation, which handles censoring (`OS_STATUS = 0:LIVING` means the event hasn't happened yet). Naive medians/means over `OS_MONTHS` ignore censoring and are systematically wrong. The correct handoff: return the raw `(OS_MONTHS, OS_STATUS)` pairs (or descriptive counts: N events, N censored, follow-up range) and tell the user to run KM in R (`survival::survfit`) or Python (`lifelines.KaplanMeierFitter`), or use cBioPortal's Survival comparison.

If asked to do any of (1)–(5), respond with the appropriate handoff template from the "Approved Response Templates" section below — do not produce the number.

Ambiguous-Term Clarification (before any analysis)
--------------------------------------------------
If the user's question uses an ambiguous term, ask before computing anything. Examples:

- **"aggressive"** → could mean shorter overall survival, higher metastasis rate, higher grade/stage, higher TMB, or specific molecular features. Ask which definit … (9984 more chars)

# Ovarian Serous Cystadenocarcinoma (TCGA, PanCancer Atlas)

**Study ID:** `ov_tcga_pan_can_atlas_2018`

See `_tcga_pancan_template.md` for common TCGA clinical attributes.

## Study-Specific Attributes

### Histology
| Attribute | Description | Values (samples) |
|-----------|-------------|--------|
| `GRADE` | Histologic grade | G3 400, G2 65, GX 7, G1 5, GB 2, G4 1, blank 105 |
| `CANCER_TYPE_DETAILED` | Histology | Serous Ovarian Cancer (all 585) |

### Not available in this study
- **Platinum sensitivity and residual disease**: no treatment-response or surgical-outcome attributes. Survival (`OS_*`, `PFS_*`, `DFS_*`, `DSS_*`) is the only outcome data.
- **BRCA / HRD status**: no clinical status attributes. Derive BRCA1/BRCA2 status from mutation (somatic calls only) and CNA data; there is no HRD score.
- `AJCC_PATHOLOGIC_TUMOR_STAGE` is blank for all samples. `SUBTYPE` is `OV` (177) or blank (408) and carries no molecular subtype.

## Key Genes
| Gene | Frequency | Notes |
|------|-----------|-------|
| TP53 | ~96% | Near-universal in high-grade serous |
| BRCA1 | ~10% germline | PARP inhibitor sensitivity |
| BRCA2 | ~6% germline | PARP inhibitor sensitivity |
| NF1 | ~4% | RAS pathway |
| RB1 | ~2% | Cell cycle |
| CDK12 | ~3% | DNA repair |

## Notes
- High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is genomically distinct from other ovarian subtypes
- TP53 is mutated in virtually all HGSOC
- BRCA1/2 mutations (germline or somatic) predict PARP inhibitor response
- HRD score predicts platinum and PARP sensitivity even without BRCA mutation
- Copy number alterations more prominent than mutations (except TP53)

# Clinical Data Query Guide

## Overview
Clinical data in cBioPortal is stored at both patient and sample levels. 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. Query the actual requested attribute when it … (17073 more chars)

═ answer (success)
## Summary

I can't compute a survival p-value directly — that requires Kaplan-Meier estimation with log-rank testing, which the underlying database query engine cannot run. Here's what I can tell you from the **Ovarian Serous Cystadenocarcinoma (TCGA, PanCancer Atlas)** cohort (`ov_tcga_pan_can_atlas_2018`, 585 samples), defining "BRCA1/2 altered" as patients with a somatic BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation or deep deletion (this study has no clinical BRCA/germline status field, so alteration status is derived from sequencing/CNA data only):

| Group | N patients (with OS data) | Events (deceased) | Censored (living) | Follow-up range (months) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BRCA1/2 altered | 43 | 16 | 27 | 0.3 – 145.4 |
| Wild-type | 528 | 325 | 203 | 0.3 – 180.2 |

Notes:
- In the wild-type group, the majority (325/528) have had an event, so a Kaplan-Meier median OS is likely computable there. In the altered group, only 16/43 (under half) have had an event, so the KM median in that group is likely **not reached**.
- This descriptive comparison does not by itself establish statistical significance. A proper answer requires **Kaplan-Meier estimation + log-rank test**, which you can run directly in cBioPortal's Group Comparison → Survival tab (linked below), or via `survival::survfit`/`survdiff` in R or `lifelines.KaplanMeierFitter`/`logrank_test` in Python using the `(OS_MONTHS, OS_STATUS)` pairs.
- Note this defines "altered" as mutation *or* deep deletion — if you want mutation-only (e.g., to match germline PARP-inhibitor eligibility questions), that's a narrower group and I can rerun it.

[Compare BRCA1/BRCA2-altered vs. wild-type overall survival (Kaplan-Meier)](https://www.cbioportal.org/results/comparison/survival?cancer_study_list=ov_tcga_pan_can_atlas_2018&gene_list=BRCA1%0ABRCA2&case_set_id=ov_tcga_pan_can_atlas_2018_all&profileFilter=mutations%2Cgistic)

This link opens the Survival tab pre-configured with Altered vs. Unaltered groups for BRCA1/BRCA2 (mutations + copy-number data), where cBioPortal will render the KM curves and report the log-rank p-value directly.
