### Description

Show all the possible cancer studies accepted by PrecisionTrialDrawer

### Usage

    showCancerStudy(tumor_type=NULL)

### Arguments

`tumor_type` | a valid tumor type barcode in TCGA standard coding

### Details

This method is a wrapper around `cgdsr-getCancerStudies` and show all the cancer studies included in the cBioPortal. If you specify the tumor_type, follow the list of `showTumorType`. Even though the cancer studies are present, it doesn't mean that there are data for every alteration. A tumor type could have mutation data but not copynumber or viceversa. Furthermore, fusion data have a different source and could not be included in the list.

### Value

A named vector of all the cancer studies available in cgdsr package that can be passed to the method getAlterations.
