A shiny app that simplifies cohort-level, tertiary cancer analysis. You can import your own data, or use public TCGA or PCAWG datasets.

Note CRUX is now live at https://ccicb.shinyapps.io/crux/

Note For analysing sensitive datasets, we reccomend installing CRUX binaries, or installing it as an R package so you can run CRUX on a system of your choice.

A manual describing the installation and use of CRUX can be found here

CRUX is now live at https://ccicb.shinyapps.io/crux/

This is the best way to quickly test out CRUX. To analyse sensitive datasets, we reccomend installing the desktop version of CRUX

Download the latest release and follow the instructions for your operating system.

There are no dependencies other than having a browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge or Safari)

1. Check R > 3.5.0 is installed (run sessionInfo())

2. For some versions of R you may need to install maftools before installing CRUX

install.packages('BiocManager')
BiocManager::install('PoisonAlien/maftools@72208f2')

3. Install CRUX by running:

install.packages('CRUX', repos = c('https://ccicb.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org'), dependencies = TRUE)

4. Run the CRUX app: CRUX::run_app()
