Oncomap

Turns a pancreatic cancer VCF into a molecular oncology report

What it does

Pancreatic cancer moves fast, and reading a tumour's variants by hand can take hours. Oncomap automates the whole path: upload a VCF, annotate it with Ensembl VEP, filter it, and download a report that lists each variant with its protein change, allele frequency, clinical significance, treatment implications and AMP/ASCO/CAP tier.

How it works

  1. Annotates the uploaded VCF through the Ensembl VEP API
  2. Keeps rare, canonical, non-synonymous variants (allele frequency below 1%)
  3. Writes a PDF report per sample, for example KRAS G12D flagged as Tier I in PDAC
