A copy number alteration is a stretch of DNA that a tumour has gained extra copies of or lost, from a single gene to a whole chromosome arm.
Copy number variation is a form of structural variation in which sections of the genome are duplicated or deleted (Wikipedia); in tumours the acquired form is called a somatic copy number alteration. Arm-level and focal events are called from arrays or sequencing, and GISTIC2.0 is the standard method for finding regions amplified or deleted more often than chance across a cohort. CNA is one of TCGA's core data types and a modality in most multi-omic models.
