action firebrowse_clinical { label: "Retrieve TCGA CDEs verbatim, i.e. not normalized by Firehose." description: "This service returns patient clinical data from TCGA, verbatim. It differs from the Samples/Clinical_FH method by providing access to all TCGA CDEs in their original form, not merely the subset of CDEs normalized by Firehose for analyses. Results may be selected by disease cohort, patient barcode or CDE name, but at least one cohort, barcode, or CDE must be provided. When filtering by CDE note that only when a patient record contains one or more of the selected CDEs will it be returned. Visit the Metadata/ClinicalNames api function to see the entire list of TCGA CDEs that may be queried via this method. For more information on how clinical data are processed, see our pipeline documentation." provider: firebrowse method: GET path: "/Samples/Clinical" encoding: json input: { type: "object" properties: { cde_name: { type: "string" } cohort: { type: "string" } format: { type: "string" } page: { type: "string" } page_size: { type: "string" } sort_by: { type: "string" } tcga_participant_barcode: { type: "string" } } additionalProperties: false } output: { type: "object" additionalProperties: true } }
