The GA4GH Cancer Gene Trust (CGT) is a decentralized distributed database of cancer variants and clinical data.

Stewards working directly with patient-participants publish de-identified somatic cancer variants and basic clinical data. Researchers who find rare variants or combinations of variants in this global resource that are associated with specific clinical features of interest may then contact the data stewards for those participants.

A submission consists of a JSON manifest file containing basic de-identified clinical data and references to one or more VCF files.
