 devtools::install_github("bzhanglab/clinicalomicsdbR")
 ```
 
+See Examples below to see how to use.
+
+## Parameters
+
+- `hostname` - base URL of the website containing the ClinicalOmicsDB API. Only change if you are running a custom service.
+- `study_list` - list containing all the studies that were filtered by the `filter()` function.
+
 ## Functions
 
-- `new()` - Create new clinicalomicsdbR object. Needed before any other function
-- `filter(drugs, cancers)` - filters studies matching provided arugments. `drugs` is a list and can be individual drugs or combinations. See the ClinicalOmicsDB website for all options. `cancers` can contain multiple cancers.
-- `download(output_dir)` - downloads all studies from `filter()` into `output_dir`. `output_dir` is optional, and defaults to `clindb`
-- `dataframe()` - loads all the studies from `filter()` into a dataframe, with column `study_list` that contains the names of the studies and `df` that contains a list of the study data information.
