2 Introduction

Primary tumor samples from blood cancer patients underwent functional and molecular characterization. BloodCancerMultiOmics2017 includes the resulting preprocessed data. A quick overview of the available data is provided below. For the details on experimental settings please refer to:

     "methData", "validateExp", "dds", "exprTreat", "mutCOM",
     "cytokineViab")

The data sets are objects of different classes (data.frame, ExpressionSet, NChannelSet, RangedSummarizedExperiment, DESeqDataSet), and include data for either all studied patient samples or only a subset of these. The overview below shortly describes and summarizes the data available. Please note that the presence of a given patient sample ID within the data set doesn’t necessarily mean that the data is available for this sample (the slot could be filled with NAs).

3.2 High-throughput drug screen data

The viability measurements from the high-throughput drug screen are included in the drpar object. The metadata about the drugs and drug concentrations used can be found in drugs and conctab objects, respectively.

The drpar object includes multiple channels, each of which consists of cells’ viability data for a single drug concentration step. Channels viaraw.1_5 and viaraw.4_5 contain the mean viability score between multiple concentration steps as indicated at the end of the channel name.

The reproducibility of the screening platform was assessed by screening 3 patient samples in two replicates. The viability measurements are available for two time points: 48 h and 72 h after adding the drug. The screen was performed for 67 drugs in 1-2 different drug concentrations (16 in 1 and 51 in 2 drug concentrations). This data is provided in day23rep.

4 Original data

The raw data from the whole exome sequencing, RNA-seq and DNA methylation arrays is stored in the European Genome-Phenome Archive (EGA) under accession number EGAS0000100174.

The preprocesed DNA methylation data, which include complete list of CpG sites (not only the 5000 with the highest variance) can be accessed through Bioconductor ExperimentHub platform.

library("ExperimentHub")

eh = ExperimentHub()
obj = query(eh, "CLLmethylation")
meth = obj[["EH1071"]] # extract the methylation data
