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. 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 Imaging Special Interest Group
You can join the CPTAC Imaging Special Interest Group to be notified of webinars & data releases, collaborate on common data wrangling tasks and seek out partners to explore research hypotheses!
CPTAC Imaging Discovery Cohorts
CPTAC imaging data is being made available on a release schedule that is coordinated with the CPTAC program releases of proteomic and genomic data. Learn more about each cancer type by clicking on the collection names in the table below. Data currently available is listed below. Clicking on the number of subjects will take you to these data portals with that particular cancer type pre-selected. You can access the radiology and pathology data directly from the respective data portals. Learn more about the CPTAC Discovery data sets here.

CPTAC - TCGA Cancer Proteome Studies
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/.
