Civic Get Variants By Gene
Get all variants associated with a specific gene in CIViC database. Returns variant information including names, coordinates, and associated evidence. Use gene_name or gene_symbol (e.g., 'EGFR', 'BRAF') for convenience, or gene_id if already known. Uses cursor-based pagination to return up to 500 variants per call.
