Hi

I have found a sciclone output via internet like attached

From this data, how I know if variants in a given cluster let's say cluster 1 is clonal or sub-clonal?

I have two groups of patients and my goal is comparing the number of clonal and sub-clonal variants between them or may be further connection sub-clonal fraction to clinal data

Here we have clustered VAF but I can not figure out how to say if a genes having a variant in a cluster is clonal or sub-clonal

Can you help me?

Thanks
