# 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 … (36467 more chars)

═ answer (success)
Breast Invasive Carcinoma (TCGA, PanCancer Atlas) で、TP53 の**変異+ホモ接合性欠失(deep deletion)**を合わせた頻度は以下の通りです(サンプル単位、変異とCNA両方がプロファイルされた 996 サンプルが分母)。
| 区分 | サンプル数 | 頻度 |
|---|---|---|
| 変異のみ | 344 | 34.5% |
| ホモ接合性欠失のみ | 9 | 0.9% |
| **変異 または deep deletion(重複除去後)** | **351** | **35.2%** |
- 分母は変異・CNAの両方がプロファイルされているサンプル集合(`_cnaseq` ケースセット)996サンプルを使用しています(前回回答の「変異のみプロファイルされた1,066サンプル」とは分母が異なる点にご注意ください)。
- 深い欠失(deep deletion / HOMDEL)はごく少数(9サンプル)で、頻度上昇への寄与はわずかです。浅い欠失(shallow deletion/HETLOSS)は含めていません。
