Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, AURKC RNA is linked to patient survival in 24 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated AURKC data layer compared with 7 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in uveal melanoma (UVM), where higher AURKC RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated AURKC expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as BLCA and LUAD show a favorable association.
UVM, KIRC, and ACC are the cancer types where AURKC RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.
RNA survival associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
