Which TCGAbiolinks and biomaRt versions do you have? Could you update them? You can do that by running:

devtools::install_github('BioinformaticsFMRP/TCGAbiolinks')
devtools::install_github('grimbough/biomaRt')
devtools::install_github('BioinformaticsFMRP/TCGAbiolinksGUI.data', ref = "R_3.4")
devtools::install_github('BioinformaticsFMRP/TCGAbiolinksGUI')

> packageVersion("Biomart")
[1] ‘2.35.0’
> packageVersion("TCGAbiolinks")
[1] ‘2.7.4’
