Cell Model Passports-a hub for clinical, genetic and functional datasets of preclinical cancer models
Open accessAbstract
In vitro cancer cell cultures are facile experimental models used widely for research and drug development. Many cancer cell lines are available and efforts are ongoing to derive new models representing the histopathological and molecular diversity of tumours. Cell models have been generated by multiple laboratories over decades and consequently their annotation is incomplete and inconsistent. Furthermore, the relationships between many patient-matched and derivative cell lines have been lost, and accessing information and datasets is time-consuming and difficult. Here, we describe the Cell Model Passports database; cellmodelpassports.sanger.ac.uk, which provides details of cell model relationships, patient and clinical information, as well as access to associated genetic and functional datasets. The Passports database currently contains curated details and standardized annotation for >1200 cell models, including cancer organoid cultures. The Passports will be updated with newly derived cell models and datasets as they are generated. Users can navigate the database via tissue, cancer-type, genetic feature and data availability to select a model most suitable for specific applications. A flexible REST-API provides programmatic data access and exploration. The Cell Model Passports are a valuable tool enabling access to high-dimensional genomic and phenotypic cancer cell model datasets empowering diverse research applications.
Overview
AI snapshot
Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
Cell Model Passports is a database and web/API resource that curates >1200 cancer cell models, including organoids, with patient/sample/model relationships and links to genomic and drug sensitivity datasets. It aims to improve model selection, data integration, and reproducibility by standardizing annotation and identifiers.
Key findings
- The Passports database contains curated details and standardized annotation for >1200 cell models, including cancer organoid cultures; over 30 attributes may be annotated per model, with lineage captured via 29 tissue categories, 44 cancer types, and 194 cancer type detail categories.
- It provides >3500 genetic datasets and >1000 drug sensitivity datasets; 85% of cell models have associated somatic nucleotide variant, gene expression, copy number variation, or methylation datasets, and mutation status is provided for 455 cancer driver genes with drug profiling of ∼250 compounds from GDSC.
- The resource captures patient–sample–model hierarchies and parent–child model relationships, using unique identifiers such as RRID, COSMIC, and CCLE, and STR/fingerprinting to confirm model–patient associations and reduce mis-identification.
- Access is available through a web interface and a REST API following JSONAPI v1.0, with processed gene-level datasets and links to raw data.
Methods
- Database construction used PostgreSQL v9.6 hosted at the Wellcome Sanger Institute; the REST API was developed in Python 3.6 with Flask v0.12 and SQLAlchemy v1.2, and the web interface used React v16.4 with Bootstrap v4.0.
- Curation compiled information from commercial cell banks (ATCC, DSMZ, JCRB, ECACC), academic collaborators, Cellosaurus, CCLE, and publications; a constrained vocabulary was developed, and the patient/sample/model hierarchy was established using annotation plus resources cataloging mis-identified and synonymous models, with STR/fingerprinting to confirm associations.
- The foundational model set includes >1200 established cancer cell lines and newly derived organoid models, including those used in the Sanger GDSC project and models from the Human Cancer Models Initiative; genomic features include microsatellite stability status, ploidy, mutational burden, and mutation status of 455 cancer driver genes.
Limitations
- The paper states that currently all datasets have been generated by the Sanger Institute, and that the Passports currently focus on high quality and consistent datasets generated by the Wellcome Sanger Institute; future expansion to external resources is planned.
- The paper states that the Passports will incorporate newly generated datasets from initiatives such as the Dependency Map at Sanger, indicating that some relevant datasets are not yet included.
- Evident from the text: no formal user evaluation, benchmarking, or performance assessment of the web interface or API is reported; the paper is primarily descriptive of the resource.

The passage on portal data sets (section labeled Abstract; page not provided) describes cBioPortal’s cancer genomic data, organized by patient and gene, supporting that part of the claim. Our copy does not address COSMIC, so it cannot support the statement about both resources. (LLM, conf=0.88)
- Partly supportedcites [20] Forbes, 2017, COSMIC: somatic cancer genetics at high-resolution, Nucleic Acids Res. sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Introduction and Database Content sections describe COSMIC as a repository of somatic mutations from human tumours, including patient cohorts, supporting the COSMIC part of the claim. The paper also describes a separate COSMIC cell-line database, but it does not address cBioPortal; a search for cBioPortal found no passage supporting that part of the sentence. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
