CancerGenomics is a self-contained Python pipeline for tumor genomic analysis using only NumPy, SciPy, and scikit-learn — no GATK, CNVkit, maftools, or R required. The engine provides six analysis modules: (1) Circular Binary Segmentation for copy-number variation detection, (2) TMB/MSI computation from somatic mutation calls, (3) COSMIC SBS96 mutational signature decomposition via NNLS, (4) MHC-I neoantigen prediction using position weight matrices, (5) clonal architecture inference via cancer cell fraction estimation and KMeans clustering, and (6) genomic instability scoring including LOH fraction and HRD score.

We present an integrative computational analysis of a publicly available N-of-1 osteosarcoma dataset (osteosarc.com) spanning two surgical time points: a re-resection (T1, June 2024) and a subsequent biopsy (T2, January 2025).

Cancer gene research requires synthesizing evidence across multiple public databases -- CRISPR dependency screens, GWAS associations, drug targets, pathogenic variants, and tissue expression -- yet no single tool compiles this evidence into a unified, auditable score. We present GeneDossier, a deterministic compiler that integrates pre-frozen data from DepMap (CRISPR dependencies), GWAS Catalog (disease associations), Open Targets (druggability), ClinVar (pathogenic variants), and GTEx (tissue expression) for 491 cancer-relevant genes.

Precision oncology aims to tailor cancer treatment based on the molecular characteristics of individual tumors, requiring integration of diverse genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and imaging data.
