Usage

get_clinical_by_sample(
  study_id = NULL,
  sample_id = NULL,
  sample_study_pairs = NULL,
  clinical_attribute = NULL,
  base_url = NULL
)

Arguments

study_id

A string indicating the study ID from which to pull data. If no study ID, will guess the study ID based on your URL and inform. Only 1 study ID can be passed. If mutations/cna from more than 1 study needed, see sample_study_pairs

sample_id

a vector of sample IDs (character)

sample_study_pairs

A dataframe with columns: sample_id, study_id and molecular_profile_id (optional). Variations in capitalization of column names are accepted. This can be used in place of sample_id, study_id, molecular_profile_id arguments above if you need to pull samples from several different studies at once. If passed this will take overwrite sample_id, study_id, molecular_profile_id if also passed.

clinical_attribute

one or more clinical attributes for your study. If none provided, will return all attributes available for studies

base_url

The database URL to query If NULL will default to URL set with set_cbioportal_db(<your_db>)

Value

a dataframe of a specific clinical attribute
