The Genomic Data Commons (GDC) maintains standardized genomic, clinical, and biospecimen data from National Cancer Institute (NCI) programs including The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Therapeutically Applicable Research To Generate Effective Treatments (TARGET), It also accepts high quality datasets from non-NCI supported cancer research programs, such as genomic data from the Foundation Medicine.

GDCRNATools is an R/Bioconductor package which provides a standard, easy-to-use and comprehensive pipeline for downloading, organizing, and integrative analyzing RNA expression data in the GDC portal with an emphasis on deciphering the lncRNA-mRNA related ceRNA regulatory network in cancer.
