## 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)
Excellent! Now I have the information you need. Here are your options for downloading the **MSK-CHORD Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer** dataset:
## Study Overview
[**MSK-CHORD (MSK, Nature 2024)**](https://www.cbioportal.org/study/summary?id=msk_chord_2024)
**Study ID:** `msk_chord_2024`
The study contains **7,809 NSCLC patients** (7,764 samples) profiled via **MSK-IMPACT targeted sequencing** with comprehensive clinical annotations, including NLP-derived data.
---
## Download Options
### **Option 1: Direct cBioPortal Download (Recommended)**
1. Visit the [MSK-CHORD study page](https://www.cbioportal.org/study/summary?id=msk_chord_2024)
2. Click **"Download"** (top-right corner)
3. Select **data types** you need:
- Clinical data (patient demographics, treatment, outcomes)
- Mutation data (MAF format)
- Copy number alterations
- Structural variants (select genes)
- Segment files (FACETS copy number)
### **Option 2: Public REST API**
For programmatic access, use cBioPortal's public REST API:
```bash
# Get all NSCLC samples from MSK-CHORD
curl "https://www.cbioportal.org/api/v2/studies/msk_chord_2024/samples?cancerTypeId=nsclc" | jq .
# Download mutations for a specific study
curl "https://www.cbioportal.org/api/v2/studies/msk_chord_2024/molecular-profiles" | jq .
```
### **Option 3: Query via ClickHouse (Advanced)**
For custom queries, I can extract specific subsets (e.g., TP53-mutated NSCLC, specific treatment cohorts). Examples:
- "Download all NSCLC samples with metastatic disease"
- "Get mutation and clinical data for EGFR-mutated adenocarcinomas"
- "Export treatment-outcome data for immunotherapy-treated patients"
---
## Key Data Notes
- **NSCLC samples:** 7,764 tumors (mostly primary + metastatic)
- **Gene coverage:** Multiple IMPACT panel versions (341–505 genes)
- **Treatment data:** Comprehensive, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy
- **License:** CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 (contact datarequests@mskcc.org for commercial use)
**Would you like me to help you query a specific subset?** For example, I can pull NSCLC samples with particular mutations, clinical features, or treatment history.
