TARGET Pediatric Cancer Code Table

Question

[komal.rathi]

Hello everyone,

I have a bunch of TARGET samples but the associated annotation lacks the tissue information i.e. whether it is a Primary tumor or Recurrent etc. I know the value for a couple codes like 01 stands for Primary solid tumors, but I want to define the tissue type for every code for future references. Does anybody know where I can find the TARGET code table to interpret the codes?

TARGET_10 (Blood Derived Normal)
TARGET_14 (Bone Marrow Normal)
TARGET_11 (Solid Tissue Normal)
TARGET_01 (Primary Solid Tumor)
TARGET_09 (Primary Blood Derived Cancer - Bone Marrow)
TARGET_03 (Primary Blood Derived Cancer - Peripheral Blood)
TARGET_04 (Recurrent Blood Derived Cancer - Bone Marrow)
TARGET_02 (Recurrent Solid Tumor)
TARGET_40 (Recurrent Blood Derived Cancer - Peripheral Blood)
TARGET_06 (Metastatic)
TARGET_41 (Blood Derived Cancer - Bone Marrow, Post-treatment)
TARGET_42 (Blood Derived Cancer - Peripheral Blood, Post-treatment)
TARGET_13 (EBV Immortalized Normal)
TARGET_15 (sample type 15)
TARGET_60 (Primary Xenograft Tissue)
TARGET_50 (Cell Lines)
TARGET_61 (Cell Line Derived Xenograft Tissue)
TARGET_20 (Control Analyte)

Thanks!

UPDATE: I have updated the code table based on @khericlim's response.

Hey Komal, how are you? Say hi to Pichai!

The TCGA one was gone, but this should help.

Eric! Thank you so much!! That completes my code table! Will put it up on our github as well :)
