WCDT Data Set
About the Genomic Characterization of Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer
The overarching goal of the Genomic Characterization of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer study is to illuminate molecular mechanisms of acquired resistance to therapeutic agents, and particularly androgen signaling inhibitors, in the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
About the Genomic Characterization of Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer Data
West Coast Prostrate Cancer Dream Team (WCDT) data is available from the biopsies of castration-resistant prostate cancer metastases collected during the study. The data consists of 101 cases with over 202 whole-genome sequencing files and 792 RNA sequencing files consisting of 83TB of data. The Project ID in the GDC Data Portal is WCDT-MCRPC.

Accessing Genomic Characterization of Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer Data on the Cloud
Besides accessing the files on the GDC Data Portal, you can also access them from the GDC Google Cloud Storage Bucket, which means that you don’t need to download them to perform analysis. ISB-CGC stores the cloud file locations in tables in the isb-cgc-bq.GDC_case_file_metadata data set in BigQuery.
To access these metadata files, go to the Google BigQuery console.
Perform SQL queries to find the WCDT files. Here is an example:
SELECT active.*, file_gdc_url
FROM `isb-cgc-bq.GDC_case_file_metadata.fileData_active_current` as active, `isb-cgc-bq.GDC_case_file_metadata.GDCfileID_to_GCSurl_current` as GCSurl
WHERE program_name = 'WCDT'
AND active.file_gdc_id = GCSurl.file_gdc_id
Accessing the WCDT Data in Google BigQuery
ISB-CGC has WCDT data, such as clinical and RNA-seq, stored in Google BigQuery tables. Information about these tables can be found using the ISB-CGC BigQuery Table Search with WCDT selected for filter PROGRAM. To learn more about this tool, see the ISB-CGC BigQuery Table Search documentation.
The WCDT tables are in project isb-cgc-bq. To learn more about how to view and query tables in the Google BigQuery console, see the ISB-CGC BigQuery Tables documentation.
