The National Cancer Institute’s Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) is a national effort to accelerate the understanding of the molecular basis of cancer through the application of large-scale proteome and genome analysis, or proteogenomics. Data (genomics, proteomics, imaging), assays, and reagents are made available to the public as a Community Resource to accelerate cancer research and advance patient care. |
CPTAC has been conducted in multiple phases. For the phase 3 prospective data collection activities TCIA has partnered with CPTAC to host both the radiology and pathology imaging data generated by the project. The other data types will be hosted in separate databases managed by the CPTAC program. TCIA will provide links to these resources as they become publicly available.
CPTAC Phase 3 Histopathology and Radiology Imaging
CPTAC imaging data will be made available on a quarterly release schedule. Data currently available includes:
Collection | Cancer Type | Location | Radiology Modalities | Radiology (Subjects) | Pathology (Subjects) |
Clear Cell Carcinoma | Kidney | CT | 220 | ||
Cutaneous Melanoma | Skin | MR, CT, CR | 62 | ||
Glioblastoma Multiforme | Brain | CT, MR | 116 | ||
| CPTAC-HNSCC | Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma | Head-Neck | CT, SC | 22 | 99 |
Squamous Cell Carcinoma | Lung | CR, CT, DX, PT | 105 | ||
Adenocarcinoma | Lung | CT, MR, PT, CR | 165 | ||
Ductal Adenocarcinoma | Pancreas | CT, MR, DX, CR | 77 | ||
Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma | Uterus | CT, MR, PT, CR | 178 |
A tutorial walk-through of the TCIA CPTAC Pathology Portal is available here.

CPTAC Phase 2 - TCGA Cancer Proteome Studies
TCIA did not formally participate in CPTAC phase 2, but a small subset of the radiology imaging studies for this cohort are available due to overlap with NIH's Cancer Genome Atlas activity. Specifically there are 28 ovarian (TCGA-OV) and 14 breast (TCGA-BRCA) cases in TCIA which have corresponding CPTAC phase 2 proteomic analysis data. The Proteomic Analysis Data is available at: https://cptac-data-portal.georgetown.edu/cptacPublic/.
