Background Tumor genome sequencing is becoming widely available in the clinical setting. However, the interpretation of tumor somatic variants remains an important challenge to implement precision cancer medicine. Methods Here, we present IntOGen, a platform aimed for tumor genome interpretation. The first component of the platform is an automatic pipeline for cancer driver gene identification across cohorts. This pipeline implements several bioinformatics methods to detect driver genes, on the basis of signals of positive selection in their mutational pattern across tumor cohorts. It also annotates several oncogenomic features that shed light onto the role of driver genes in the development of each malignancy. The second component of the platform leverages these features to identify the somatic mutations that drive the tumor of each patient providing additional information about the possible effect of driver mutations on treatment response. Results We have applied the framework to more than 50,000 tumors across more than 60 tumors types creating the largest repository of tumor genetic driver events. This comprehensive oncogenomics repository is the third component of IntOGen. Conclusions All the results and framework are available online to the cancer genomics research community at www.intogen.org, which we envision can support a broad range of oncology use cases.
