Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ASCL3 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated ASCL3 data layer compared with 15 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where higher ASCL3 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ASCL3 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
COAD and UCEC are the cancer types where ASCL3 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
