Phase 1: Profile Validation

1.1 Resolve Gene Identifiers

def resolve_gene(tu, gene_symbol):
    """Resolve gene to all needed IDs."""
    ids = {}
    
    # Ensembl ID (for OpenTargets)
    gene_info = tu.tools.MyGene_query_genes(q=gene_symbol, species="human")
    ids['ensembl'] = gene_info.get('ensembl', {}).get('gene')
    
    # UniProt (for structure)
    uniprot = tu.tools.UniProt_search(query=gene_symbol, organism="human")
    ids['uniprot'] = uniprot[0].get('primaryAccession') if uniprot else None
    
    # ChEMBL target
    target = tu.tools.ChEMBL_search_targets(query=gene_symbol, organism="Homo sapiens")
    ids['chembl_target'] = target[0].get('target_chembl_id') if target else None
    
    return ids

1.2 Validate Variant Nomenclature

• HGVS protein: p.L858R, p.V600E
• cDNA: c.2573T>G
• Common names: T790M, G12C

Phase 2: Variant Interpretation

2.1 CIViC Evidence Query

def get_civic_evidence(tu, gene_symbol, variant_name):
    """Get CIViC evidence for variant."""
    # Search for variant
    variants = tu.tools.civic_search_variants(query=f"{gene_symbol} {variant_name}")
    
    evidence_items = []

        # Get evidence items for this variant
        evi = tu.tools.civic_get_variant(id=var['id'])
        evidence_items.extend(evi.get('evidence_items', []))
    
    # Categorize by evidence type
    return {
        'predictive': [e for e in evidence_items if e['evidence_type'] == 'Predictive'],
        'prognostic': [e for e in evidence_items if e['evidence_type'] == 'Prognostic'],
        'diagnostic': [e for e in evidence_items if e['evidence_type'] == 'Diagnostic']
    }

2.2 COSMIC Somatic Mutation Analysis (NEW)

def get_cosmic_mutations(tu, gene_symbol, variant_name=None):
    """Get somatic mutation data from COSMIC database."""
    
    # Get all mutations for gene
    gene_mutations = tu.tools.COSMIC_get_mutations_by_gene(
        operation="get_by_gene",
        gene=gene_symbol,
        max_results=100,
        genome_build=38
    )
    
    # If specific variant, search for it
    if variant_name:
        specific = tu.tools.COSMIC_search_mutations(
            operation="search",
            terms=f"{gene_symbol} {variant_name}",
            max_results=20
        )
        return {
            'specific_variant': specific.get('results', []),
            'all_gene_mutations': gene_mutations.get('results', [])
        }
    
    return gene_mutations

def get_cosmic_hotspots(tu, gene_symbol):
    """Identify mutation hotspots in COSMIC."""
    mutations = tu.tools.COSMIC_get_mutations_by_gene(
        operation="get_by_gene",
        gene=gene_symbol,
        max_results=500
    )
    
    # Count by position
    position_counts = Counter(m['MutationAA'] for m in mutations.get('results', []))
    hotspots = position_counts.most_common(10)
    
    return hotspots

Why COSMIC matters:

• Gold standard for somatic cancer mutations
• Provides cancer type distribution (which cancers have this mutation)
• FATHMM pathogenicity prediction for novel variants
• Identifies hotspots vs. rare mutations

2.3 GDC/TCGA Pan-Cancer Analysis (NEW)

Access real patient tumor data from The Cancer Genome Atlas:

def get_tcga_mutation_data(tu, gene_symbol, cancer_type=None):
    """
    Get somatic mutations from TCGA via GDC.
    
    Answers: "How often is this mutation seen in real tumors?"

        gene_symbol=gene_symbol

    # Get specific mutations
    mutations = tu.tools.GDC_get_ssm_by_gene(
        gene_symbol=gene_symbol,
        project_id=f"TCGA-{cancer_type}" if cancer_type else None,
        size=50
    )
    
    return {
        'frequency': frequency.get('data', {}),
        'mutations': mutations.get('data', {}),
        'note': 'Real patient tumor data from TCGA'
    }

def get_tcga_expression_profile(tu, gene_symbol, cancer_type):
    """Get gene expression data from TCGA."""
    
    # Map cancer type to TCGA project
    project_map = {
        'lung': 'TCGA-LUAD',
        'breast': 'TCGA-BRCA', 
        'colorectal': 'TCGA-COAD',
        'melanoma': 'TCGA-SKCM',
        'glioblastoma': 'TCGA-GBM'
    }
    project_id = project_map.get(cancer_type.lower(), f'TCGA-{cancer_type.upper()}')
    
    expression = tu.tools.GDC_get_gene_expression(
        project_id=project_id,
        size=20
    )
    
    return expression.get('data', {})

def get_tcga_cnv_status(tu, gene_symbol, cancer_type):
    """Get copy number status from TCGA."""
    
    project_map = {
        'lung': 'TCGA-LUAD',
        'breast': 'TCGA-BRCA'

    project_id = project_map.get(cancer_type.lower(), f'TCGA-{cancer_type.upper()}')
    
    cnv = tu.tools.GDC_get_cnv_data(
        project_id=project_id,
        gene_symbol=gene_symbol,
        size=20
    )
    
    return cnv.get('data', {})

GDC Tools Summary:

Why TCGA/GDC matters:

• Real patient data - Not cell line or curated, actual tumor sequencing
• Pan-cancer view - Same gene across 33 cancer types
• Multi-omic - Mutations, expression, CNV together
• Clinical correlation - Survival data available

2.4 DepMap Target Validation (NEW)

Assess gene essentiality using CRISPR knockout data from cancer cell lines:

def assess_target_essentiality(tu, gene_symbol, cancer_type=None):
    """
    Is this gene essential in cancer cell lines?
    
    Essential genes have negative dependency scores.
    Answers: "If we target this gene, will cancer cells die?"
    """
    
    # Get gene dependency data
    dependencies = tu.tools.DepMap_get_gene_dependencies(
        gene_symbol=gene_symbol
    )
    
    # Get cell lines for specific cancer type
    if cancer_type:
        cell_lines = tu.tools.DepMap_get_cell_lines(
            cancer_type=cancer_type,
            page_size=20
        )
        return {
            'gene': gene_symbol,
            'dependencies': dependencies.get('data', {}),
            'cell_lines': cell_lines.get('data', {}),
            'interpretation': 'Negative scores = gene is essential for cell survival'
        }
    
    return dependencies

def get_depmap_drug_sensitivity(tu, drug_name, cancer_type=None):
    """Get drug sensitivity data from DepMap."""
    
    drugs = tu.tools.DepMap_get_drug_response(
        drug_name=drug_name
    )
    
    return drugs.get('data', {})

DepMap Tools Summary:

Why DepMap matters for Precision Oncology:

• Target validation - Proves gene is essential for cancer survival
• Cancer selectivity - Essential in cancer but not normal cells?
• Resistance prediction - What other genes become essential when you knockout target?
• Combination rationale - Identify synthetic lethal partners

Example Clinical Application:

### Target Essentiality Assessment (DepMap)

**KRAS dependency in pancreatic cancer cell lines**:
| Cell Line | KRAS Effect Score | Interpretation |
|-----------|-------------------|----------------|
| PANC-1 | -0.82 | Strongly essential |
| MIA PaCa-2 | -0.75 | Essential |
| BxPC-3 | -0.21 | Less dependent (KRAS WT) |

*Interpretation: KRAS-mutant pancreatic cancer lines are highly dependent on KRAS - validates targeting strategy.*

## 2.5 Tumor Expression Context

### Target Expression in Tumor Microenvironment (CELLxGENE)

| Gene | Tumor Cells | Normal Cells | Tumor/Normal Ratio | Interpretation |
|------|-------------|--------------|-------------------|----------------|
| EGFR | High (TPM=85) | Medium (TPM=25) | 3.4x | Good target |
| MET | Medium (TPM=35) | Low (TPM=8) | 4.4x | Potential bypass |
| AXL | High (TPM=120) | Low (TPM=15) | 8.0x | Resistance marker |

### Cell Type Distribution

- **EGFR-high cells**: Tumor epithelial (85%), CAFs (10%), immune (5%)
- **MET-high cells**: Tumor epithelial (70%), endothelial (20%), immune (10%)

**Clinical Relevance**: EGFR highly expressed in tumor epithelial cells. AXL overexpression in tumor suggests potential resistance mechanism.

- **Rationale for EGFR + MET inhibition**: Block primary and bypass pathways
- Network shows direct EGFR-MET interaction (IntAct: MI-score 0.75)

### Protein Interaction Network (IntAct)

| Target | Direct Interactors | Key Partners | Relevance |
|--------|-------------------|--------------|-----------|
| EGFR | 156 | MET, ERBB2, ERBB3, GRB2 | Bypass pathways |
| MET | 89 | EGFR, HGF, GAB1 | Resistance mediator |

Phase 4: Resistance Analysis

4.1 Known Mechanisms (Literature + CIViC)

    # Compare binding site changes
    # Report: "T790M introduces bulky methionine, steric clash with erlotinib"

Phase 5: Clinical Trial Matching

5.1 Search Strategy

    """Find matching clinical trials."""
    # Search with biomarker
    trials = tu.tools.search_clinical_trials(

        status="Recruiting",

    # Get eligibility for top matches

    eligibility = tu.tools.get_clinical_trial_eligibility_criteria(nct_ids=nct_ids)
    
    return trials, eligibility
