# awesome-cancer-variant-databases

A community-maintained repository of cancer clinical knowledge bases and databases focused on cancer and normal variants. [Contributions welcome](https://github.com/seandavi/awesome-cancer-variant-databases/blob/master/CONTRIBUTE.md]).



Also see our [bioRxiv manuscript, *Resources For Interpreting Variants In Precision Genomic Oncology Applications*](https://doi.org/10.1101/144766) and [Frontiers in Oncology Publication](https://doi.org/10.3389/fonc.2017.00214)



## Clinically-focused databases

All changes are reviewed by cancer pathologists. [web app, Download]



## Catalogs



- [VarSome](https://varsome.com) Large, online aggregation database of variants. VarSome is a knowledge base and aggregator for human genomic variants. We were frustrated with the amount of time it takes to look up variants in a number of public databases, and we decided to act. The result is a comprehensive resource that will save you both time and effort when looking up variant information. [example API query](https://api.varsome.com/lookup/15-73027478-T-C)
