# Mutation Frequency Analysis Guide
## IMPORTANT: Reporting Mutation Frequencies
- **ALWAYS report frequencies as percentages**, not raw counts: `frequency = (altered_samples / total_profiled_samples) × 100`
- For quick frequency lookups, **prefer the TCGA Pan-Cancer Atlas study first**, then offer to expand to other studies
- When reporting across multiple studies, show **ranges** (e.g., "TP53 is mutated in 30–60% of samples") rather than a single average
- **NEVER** sum mutation events across studies to compute an aggregate frequency — this can exceed 100% due to double-counting
- Warn users that samples may overlap across cohorts (e.g., MSK studies may share patients)
- **Choose and state the counting unit**: use patient-level frequencies for prevalence/rate questions unless the user explicitly asks for samples; use sample-level frequencies when the user asks about samples.
- **For "across cancer types" questions**, jump to the [Cross-Cancer-Type Mutation Frequency](#cross-cancer-type-mutation-frequency) section below — there is one correct recipe and several common wrong ones.
## Counting Unit: Samples vs Patients
Before answering any mutation count or frequency question, decide whether the unit is samples or patients and state that choice in the answer.
| User wording | Counting unit |
|--------------|---------------|
| "prevalence", "rate", "fraction of patients", "patients with", "how common is" | Patient-level: `COUNT(DISTINCT patient_unique_id)` |
| "samples", "specimens", "biopsies", sample-level cohort composition | Sample-level: `COUNT(DISTINCT sample_unique_id)` |
| Ambiguous | Ask, or default to patient-level for prevalence/rate language and say so |
### Cross-study sample-count caveat
When an answer touches more than one study and reports a sample count, prepend a one-line caveat:
> Sample IDs are unique within cBioPortal study prefixes, not guaranteed biological-sample identifiers across studies; overlapping cohorts can count the same patient/sample more than once.
Prefer one of these safer approaches:
- Use a shipped `cancer_study_query_preferences` cohort such as `pan_cancer_tcga` or `all_studies_non_redundant`.
- Restrict to one named study.
- Aggregate by `patient_unique_id` when the biological question is patient prevalence.
## STOP rule: a frequency above 100% means your query is wrong
If your query returns a frequency over 100%, **do not try to debug or explain the data inconsistency to the user**. The cause is always one of these query bugs:
- Summing mutation events instead of `COUNT(DISTINCT sample_unique_id)` for the numerator
- Using a study-wide sample count as the denominator instead of the gene-specific profiled count
- Cross-study aggregation where the same biological sample appears under multiple `sample_unique_id` values (e.g., MSK-IMPACT and MSK-CHORD share patients)
- **Joining the profiled CTE through `gene_panel` / `gene_panel_list` without a WES branch.** `gene_panel_id = 'WES'` is *not* a row in … (35166 more chars)

# Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma (TCGA, PanCancer Atlas)
**Study ID:** `ucec_tcga_pan_can_atlas_2018`
See `_tcga_pancan_template.md` for common TCGA clinical attributes.
## Study-Specific Attributes
### Molecular Classification (TCGA)
| Attribute | Description | Values (patients) |
|-----------|-------------|--------|
| `SUBTYPE` | TCGA molecular subtype | `UCEC_CN_HIGH` 163, `UCEC_MSI` 148, `UCEC_CN_LOW` 147, `UCEC_POLE` 49, blank 22 |
### Histology
There is no `HISTOLOGICAL_TYPE` attribute; use `CANCER_TYPE_DETAILED`, plus `GRADE` for grade.
| Attribute | Values (samples) |
|-----------|--------|
| `CANCER_TYPE_DETAILED` | Uterine Endometrioid Carcinoma 399, Uterine Serous Carcinoma/Uterine Papillary Serous Carcinoma 109, Uterine Mixed Endometrial Carcinoma 21 |
| `GRADE` | G3 302, G2 119, G1 97, High Grade 11 |
`AJCC_PATHOLOGIC_TUMOR_STAGE` is blank for all samples.
## Molecular Subtypes
| Subtype | Characteristics | Prognosis |
|---------|-----------------|-----------|
| **POLE** | Ultra-hypermutated (>100 mut/Mb), POLE exonuclease mutations | Excellent |
| **MSI** | Hypermutated, microsatellite instability, MLH1 silencing | Intermediate |
| **CN-low** | Microsatellite stable, few copy number alterations | Intermediate |
| **CN-high** | Serous-like, TP53 mutations, extensive CNA | Poor |
## Key Genes
| Gene | Frequency | Subtype Association |
|------|-----------|---------------------|
| PTEN | ~65% | CN-low, MSI |
| PIK3CA | ~50% | All subtypes |
| PIK3R1 | ~30% | CN-low |
| ARID1A | ~35% | MSI |
| TP53 | ~25% | CN-high (>90% in this subtype) |
| KRAS | ~20% | Various |
| CTNNB1 | ~20% | CN-low |
| POLE | ~7% | Defines POLE subtype |
## Notes
- TCGA molecular classification has prognostic value and guides treatment
- POLE and MSI subtypes are hypermutated but have different mechanisms
- TP53 mutations with CN-high pattern indicate serous-like behavior regardless of histology
- POLE mutations should be in exonuclease domain (proofreading) to be driver
- MSI-H tumors respond well to immunotherapy

## Most Frequently Mutated Genes in CN-HIGH Subtype Endometrial Cancers
Based on analysis of **163 CN-HIGH patients** in the TCGA Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma (PanCancer Atlas), here are the top mutated genes with comparison to other molecular subtypes:
### Top 10 Genes Most Frequently Mutated in CN-HIGH Endometrial Cancers
| Gene | CN-HIGH Frequency | CN-LOW | MSI | POLE | Distinguishing Feature |
|------|-------------------|--------|-----|------|------------------------|
| **TP53** | **86.5%** (141/163) | 6.1% | 16.2% | 34.7% | **Signature mutation** – defines CN-HIGH subtype |
| **PIK3CA** | 33.1% (54/163) | 50.3% | 57.4% | 83.7% | Common across all subtypes; higher in hypermutated types |
| **PPP2R1A** | **30.7%** (50/163) | 2.0% | 12.2% | 28.6% | **Enriched in CN-HIGH** – 15-fold higher than CN-LOW |
| **FBXW7** | 18.4% (30/163) | 6.1% | 15.5% | 65.3% | Moderate enrichment in CN-HIGH |
| **PTEN** | 17.2% (28/163) | 80.3% | 93.2% | 95.9% | **Depleted in CN-HIGH** – marker of CN-LOW/MSI/POLE |
| **CHD4** | 15.3% (25/163) | 14.3% | 19.6% | 77.6% | Chromatin remodeler; frequent in all subtypes |
| **PIK3R1** | 14.1% (23/163) | 34.0% | 37.2% | 59.2% | Higher in CN-LOW and MSI |
| **TTN** | 19.6% (32/163) | 11.6% | 70.9% | 100% | **Passenger-like** – hypermutated types have it nearly universally |
| **CSMD3** | 12.3% (20/163) | 7.5% | 29.7% | 93.9% | Passenger gene; very frequent in hypermutated POLE |
| **RYR2** | 8.0% (13/163) | 9.5% | 36.5% | 89.8% | Passenger gene; hypermutated types heavily affected |

### Key Insight: CN-HIGH Subtype Signature
**TP53 is the hallmark mutation of CN-HIGH endometrial cancer**, with 86.5% of CN-HIGH patients mutated versus only 6.1% of CN-LOW patients. Combined with **PPP2R1A** (30.7% in CN-HIGH vs 2% in CN-LOW), these two genes define the CN-HIGH genotype.
**Contrast with other subtypes:**
- **PTEN loss is a hallmark of CN-LOW (80.3%) and MSI (93.2%)**, but only 17.2% of CN-HIGH tumors — suggesting different PI3K pathway activation mechanisms
- **Hypermutated types (MSI, POLE)** are dominated by passenger mutations (TTN, CSMD3, RYR2, DMD) at very high frequencies (70–100%), making their top genes less specific to biology
- **PIK3CA** is elevated across all subtypes (33–84%), but highest in POLE/MSI, suggesting convergent pathway activation
